Summary: This report investigates whether boarding houses are disappearing. The report points out that the most persuasive evidence for this argument comes from the Australian Bureau of Statistics. In 2011, the ABS released census data showing that the boarding house population had fallen from 23.750 in 2001 to 16,830 in 2006. A decrease of 29 per cent. Through this report, issues in the collection of this data are presented, finally concluding that the ABS method of counting boarding houses is fundamentally flawed.
