Key characteristics <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Carine</strong>-<strong>Hamersley</strong> <strong>Local</strong> <strong>Area</strong>’s population<br />
consist <strong>of</strong> couples without children, although the proportion <strong>of</strong><br />
families with children in both areas is greater than across the <strong>City</strong> in<br />
general. Yet the gap between families with without children in the<br />
narrowed over the last census period. This is consistent with<br />
citywide trends.<br />
Ethnicity/Cultural Backgrounds<br />
The <strong>Carine</strong>-<strong>Hamersley</strong> <strong>Local</strong> <strong>Area</strong> has a slightly lower proportion <strong>of</strong><br />
residents that were born overseas when compared to the <strong>City</strong> more<br />
generally (29% in the <strong>Local</strong> <strong>Area</strong> as opposed to 32% <strong>City</strong>-wide),<br />
and a relatively large proportion <strong>of</strong> residents born in the United<br />
Kingdom (10%). Unsurprisingly, a relatively small proportion <strong>of</strong> the<br />
population also speaks a language other than English at home. This<br />
is unusual for the <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Stirling</strong>, which generally has a diverse<br />
cultural make-up, with residents from many different parts <strong>of</strong> the<br />
world. The <strong>Carine</strong>-<strong>Hamersley</strong> area also has a comparatively low<br />
number <strong>of</strong> Indigenous residents (0.5% <strong>of</strong> the population in<br />
comparison to the <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Stirling</strong>’s 1.2% Indigenous<br />
representation).<br />
The proportion <strong>of</strong> <strong>Carine</strong>-<strong>Hamersley</strong> residents who follow a religion<br />
is slightly lower than across other parts <strong>of</strong> the <strong>City</strong>, although <strong>of</strong> all<br />
religious affiliations, most residents are Anglican (22.9%), which is<br />
higher than across the <strong>City</strong> at large (16.6%), whilst lower<br />
proportions are Catholic or belong to non-Christian denominations.<br />
