Australia’s Migration Numbers Dip

from Melbourne News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Australia’s overseas migration dipped to 301,000 last year, down from pandemic highs but still above pre-pandemic levels. While the government touts this decline as effective management, critics argue it’s still too high amid housing shortages and strained services. States like WA and Queensland are booming with migration—WA up 250%—driven by economic demand, while NSW and Victoria have returned to pre-pandemic norms. The debate rages on as politicians push for a “monocultural” future, even as migration numbers continue to trend downward. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
