Bangladeshi Australians
Bangladeshi Australians () refers to Australian citizens or residents who have full or partial Bangladeshi heritage or people who emigrated from Bangladesh and reside in Australia. There are around 51,491 people born in Bangladesh living in Australia, according to the census in 2021. Additionally, there is a significant number of Bangladeshi descent Australians (born in Australia), but their numbers are uncertain. The largest Bangladeshi communities are mainly present in the states of New South Wales and Victoria, with large concentrations in the cities of Sydney and Melbourne. History
Bangladeshis are relatively new migrants to Australia. After the liberation of Bangladesh in 1971, migration has steadily increased with the majority arriving under the Skilled Migration Program. Most Bangladesh-born have settled in the urban areas of New South Wales while smaller numbers settled in other states and territories. In the late 1990s, 2000s and early 2010s many Bangladeshis moved to less expensive suburbs in Sydney and Melbourne, namely Lakemba, Rockdale, and Eastlakes. More recently, there has been a shift to affordable suburbs farther from CBDs with larger houses, such as Macquarie Fields, Tarneit, Minto and Ingleburn. Demography
