Jordan's demography

The current population of Jordan is steadily increased in the last few decades but faster in the last few years to reach 7,825,208 as of Tuesday, February 7, 2017, based on the latest United Nations estimates. This is about 0.1% Country's Share of World Population putting Jordan on 101 position of the global rank. However, the yearly population growth rate has been reported to reduce from 12% in 1950 to 1.66% at present (2017).[3]

Age and Sex

The median age of the Jordan-born in 2011 was 36 years compared with 45 years for all overseas-born and 37 years for the total Australian population. The age distribution showed 12.9 per cent were aged 0-14 years, 12.1 per cent were 15-24 years, 39.8 per cent were 25-44 years, 29.4 per cent were 45-64 years and 5.8 per cent were 65 years and over. Of the Jordan-born in Australia, there were 2559 males (55.4 per cent) and 2060 females (44.6 per cent). The sex ratio was 124.2 males per 100 females.[4]

In the 2011 Census, the top ancestry responses* that Jordan-born people reported were Jordanian (1909), Arab nfd (937) and Palestinian (732). In the 2011 Census, Australians reported around 300 different ancestries. Of the total ancestry responses*, 4218 responses were towards Jordanian ancestry.[5]

  • At the 2011 Census up to two responses per person were allowed for the Ancestry question; therefore providing the total responses and not persons count.

The main languages spoken at home by Jordan-born people in Australia were Arabic (3785), English (416) and Armenian (162). Of the 4203 Jordan-born who spoke a language other than English at home, 89 per cent spoke English very well or well, and 10.1 per cent spoke English not well or not at all.[6]
