As an Australian, I honestly don’t disagree with you… but suggesting Sweden has more racial diversity than Australia?! From what i can see, Sweden has “6% diversity”, whereas Australia has 9%. Not a huge difference, granted, but completely different ballpark to USA (49%), and if this is your measure, Australia still “beats” Sweden.
That’s pretty inaccurate as well. Australia is diverse, but we don’t explicitly track ethnicities demographics so you’ll never find an official figure
To quote the wiki and ABS stats
So roughly 25%.
Add to that 30% of the population is born overseas (compared to 13% US), so 1/4 people you meet will be diverse in a non-skin identifiable way. And 50% of the country have at least one parent born overseas, so families are pretty diverse.
Fun fact, we’re also the only country in the world with a higher rate of Americans immigrating in than we are going to America.
Yeah, I wasn’t claiming it was a highly accurate source, and I was surprised that we rated so low based on those calculations, so thanks for the additional analysis. I just found it hard to believe that Sweden would be “dealing with diversity” more than Australia (or at least, in any significant way). Maybe there’s more nuance to Sweden’s numbers, too?
Saying Sweden has to deal with diversity sounds like a massive dog whistle about Muslims tbh. Assume the America inclusion is much the same.
They’re probably just some racist wanker now that I come to think of it.
Seems plausible.
How are you ‘measuring diversity’?
Are you including the entire country, or just certain parts?
If it’s the entire country, then Australians still don’t have to deal with diversity because most of their minorities live away from the white people.
I’m not measuring it, just quoting another source. I just wanted to find some numbers to try and understand how Sweden and Australia compare.
You make an excellent point.
What are you on about?
Nearly half the country lives in just two cities, and the other 50% in like 3 more. And our “suburbs” are varied as fuck and based on income more than any other factor.
Yes, I’m talking about ethnic diversity.
Where do the minorities tend to live?
The same few cities as the rest of us?
Do you assume that the rich suburbs are also not home to minorities? Like it’s not insanely difficult to immigrate here, meaning that it’s generally those who are already relatively wealthy making the move over? We all live relatively co-mingled amongst each other.
Also why do you think of multiculturalism as a burden that one needs to “deal” with?
