How Many Aussies in Australia Rent?

We know that renting is something that millions of Aussies do, but how many Aussies in Australia actually rent? Yeah, so let's just get acquainted with the data, and I'll throw you the first curveball. In our last census in 2021, that's where we've got the most recent data from, we had around 9.8 million households in Australia. We're going to be talking about households, which, to be super clear, is the industry's way of talking about a group of people living together. Keep that distinction in your mind between people and households, because it's going to become important as we keep talking about it.
