ABS Census 2021 statistical areas (SA2). Boundaries: ABS ASGS 2021.

How to read this

  • Born in Sri Lanka counts people born there. It does not count their children born in Australia, so the community is larger than this number.
  • This guide uses country of birth only. Language spoken at home is not shown: people born in Sri Lanka speak Sinhalese, Tamil or English at home, and Tamil is also spoken at home by many people born in India and elsewhere, so no single language count would describe the Sri Lankan community.
  • These are 2021 Census figures, now five years old. The community has likely grown since; we do not show growth because no newer count exists at this level.
  • The ABS slightly adjusts small counts to protect privacy, so treat small numbers as approximate. Areas with fewer than 100 people born in Sri Lanka are not listed.
  • Each "area" is an ABS statistical area (SA2), which may cover one suburb or several. Areas are listed by the share of residents, not judged or scored.
  • To filter by budget, commute and other communities, use Community match. Guides for other communities are listed on Sydney community guides.
