Where the Filipino community lives in Burnie
This page ranks Burnie suburbs by where the Filipino community is most established, using the 2021 Census. Suburbs are ordered by the share of residents who reported Filipino ancestry, and each one also shows the share who were born in the Philippines and speak Filipino or Tagalog at home. Only suburbs with at least 2,000 residents are ranked.
No single number captures a community on its own — ancestry is the broadest (it includes Australian-born second and third generations), country of birth captures migrants, and language spoken at home tracks the actively speaking core. We show every angle the 2021 Census publishes for the Filipino community so you can see the full picture. Ancestry is a multiple-response question, so shares read as "residents who reported this ancestry" rather than an exclusive count. Percentile ranks are computed within Burnie's pool. This is descriptive demographic information, not a recommendation.
Where the Filipino community lives in Burnie
Ranked by the share of residents who reported Filipino ancestry in the 2021 Census, among suburbs with at least 2,000 residents.

Common questions about this ranking
How is this ranking put together?
Suburbs are ordered by the share of residents who reported ancestry. Ancestry is the broadest measure — it includes Australian-born second and third generations, not just migrants. Only suburbs with at least 2,000 residents are included, and percentile ranks are computed within Burnie's pool, so the list reflects concentration relative to other metro suburbs.
Why is only one figure shown per suburb?
Other community pages show two or three census angles side by side, but the ABS publishes a fixed list of ancestries, birthplaces and languages, and they do not cover every community equally. We show the figures that exist rather than filling the gaps with a zero, which would read as an absence of people instead of an absence of a question.
How current is it?
The figures are from the 2021 Census, the most recent available until results from the August 2026 Census are released in 2027. The top 15 is recomputed whenever we refresh the census data.
