澳大利亚规模最大的纵向研究——HILDA调查周四发布了追踪至2024年的最新数据。该调查涵盖约17000人、9000个家庭的信息,全面反映了澳大利亚人当前的生活状况。1调查联合主任Roger Wilkins指出:"生活成本上升最突出,而人民收入跟不上生活成本上升",这一矛盾成为澳大利亚家庭面临的首要挑战。1
食物不安全问题显著恶化。18%的澳大利亚人(15岁及以上)在2024年经历食物不安全,较2020年的13.7%上升明显。1住房压力同样严峻,23%的私人租户和相似比例的社会住房租户面临住房压力,而9.6%的抵押贷款持有者受到影响,这是2017年以来的最高水平。1年轻人独立性受到生活成本冲击,半数18-29岁的年轻人仍与父母同住,较2001年的39%大幅上升至2024年的50%。1
与经济压力形成对比的是,澳大利亚人的教育水平和生活满意度呈现积极趋势。超半数澳大利亚工作者认为自身教育超过工作要求,澳大利亚女性(25-44岁)中超半数持有大学学位。1在伴侣关系方面,长期伴侣关系的平均满意度达4.3/5分,表明澳大利亚人在个人生活中维持着较高的满意度。1
Australia's largest longitudinal study released new findings this week, tracking approximately 17,000 people across 9,000 households through 2024.1 The HILDA survey, the nation's most comprehensive household survey, presents a complex picture of Australian life marked by educational gains and relationship satisfaction tempered by mounting financial stress.
Food insecurity has become a pressing concern, with 18 percent of Australians aged 15 and over experiencing it in 2024, up from 13.7 percent in 2020.1 Housing pressures continue to intensify, affecting 23 percent of private renters and a similar proportion of social housing tenants, while 9.6 percent of mortgage holders report housing stress—the highest level since 2017.1 Young people are increasingly dependent on family support, with half of 18 to 29-year-olds living with parents in 2024, a significant rise from 39 percent in 2001.1
Despite financial headwinds, Australians demonstrate strong educational attainment and relationship stability. More than half of working Australians believe their education exceeds what their jobs require, and over half of women aged 25 to 44 hold university degrees.1 Long-term partners report high satisfaction, averaging 4.3 out of 5.1 According to HILDA co-director Roger Wilkins, the core challenge is structural: "The rise in living costs stands out most prominently, yet people's incomes are not keeping pace with the cost of living."1
