  • Australia in 2125: What the Next 100 Years Could Look Like
    2025/07/22
    What would someone from 1925 make of the Australia we live in today? Would they be amazed by our prosperity? Shocked by how much our values and lifestyles have changed? Or perhaps surprised that a place called the “Gold Coast” even exists? In today’s episode of Demographics Decoded, Simon Kuestenmacher and I take a time machine journey through Australia’s past and present. We explore how our country has evolved over the last 100 years – socially, culturally, demographically – and then fast-forward to ask: what might Australia look like in another hundred years? What kind of cities will we be living in? What will family life look like? Will we still have a strong sense of community? And how will we continue to grow in a world of declining fertility and aging populations? This episode is as much about nostalgia as it is about foresight – so buckle in for a thought-provoking journey across a century of change, and what lies ahead. Takeaways · Australia's cities have undergone significant evolution over the last century. · The Gold Coast represents a major urban success story. · The role of religion in society may evolve in the future. · Australia is becoming increasingly multicultural, with a diverse population. · Family dynamics and workforce participation have changed dramatically since 1925. · Future predictions suggest a doubling of Australia's population. · Technological advancements will reshape urban living and work. · Longer life expectancies will impact retirement and workforce dynamics. · Social support systems for the elderly will need to adapt to demographic changes. · The choices made today will shape the future for generations to come.

  • Baby Boomers Are Sitting on Property Goldmines – But Refusing to Cash In
    2025/07/15
    Have you ever wondered why more Baby Boomers aren’t downsizing, even though many are now living in homes that are bigger than they need? Simon Kuestenmacher and I discuss this important demographic trend that affects housing affordability, intergenerational wealth, and how our cities will evolve. So whether you're a policymaker, a property investor, or a Millennial waiting for the Boomer next door to sell, you won’t want to miss this show. Takeaways · The narrative of downsizing among baby boomers is often exaggerated. · Emotional attachments to family homes play a significant role in the decision to downsize. · Many baby boomers prefer to age in place rather than move to smaller homes. · Financial disincentives, such as stamp duty, discourage downsizing. · The lack of suitable housing stock for downsizers is a major barrier. · Governments need to create incentives to encourage downsizing. · Baby boomers are asset-rich but cautious about moving. · Millennials are missing out on family homes due to baby boomers not downsizing. · Local councils often block developments that could provide suitable housing for downsizers. · Downsizing is not just about space; it's about lifestyle and community.

  • The Surprising Data Behind Modern Parenting Styles
    2025/07/08
    Modern parenting has turned into a competitive sport, with school rankings, extracurricular rosters, perfectly curated lunchboxes, and, of course, constant supervision. But is all this so-called ‘help’ truly helping? In today’s episode of Demographics Decoded, Simon Kuestenmacher and I discuss a parenting trend that has become all too familiar — helicopter parenting. That’s the kind where parents hover, micromanage, and try to smooth over every bump in their child’s path - often with the best of intentions, but sometimes with unintended consequences. Now, whether you’re a parent, a grandparent, or even a former child yourself (which, let’s face it, is all of us), this is a conversation worth hearing. Because helicopter parenting isn’t just a phase — it’s a demographic phenomenon, tied to everything from declining birth rates to increased wealth to rising perfectionism. Takeaways · Helicopter parenting is a growing trend across the Western world. · Parents today are spending significantly more time with their children than in the past. · The increase in parental involvement can sometimes hinder children's independence. · Older parents tend to be more risk-averse, impacting their parenting style. · Affluent parents often micromanage their children's activities and education. · Children today have less opportunity for unsupervised free play, which is crucial for development. · Micro disappointments are essential for building resilience in children. · Parental fears often overestimate the risks associated with children's independence. · Education systems are seeing increased parental pressure, which can undermine teachers' authority. · The rise of helicopter parenting reflects broader societal changes and demographic trends Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Parenting Trends 02:05 Understanding Helicopter Parenting 05:19 Demographic Drivers of Parenting Styles 08:04 The Impact of Age on Parenting 10:38 Affluence and Micromanagement in Parenting 12:03 Parental Involvement in Education 16:19 Long-term Effects of Helicopter Parenting 18:34 Global Perspectives on Parenting Trends 20:17 Advice for Modern Parents Links and Resources:     About Simon Kuestenmacher Simon Kuestenmacher is co-founder and Director – The Demographics Group Simon is a prolific media commentator on demographic and data matters and a columnist for The New Daily and The Australian newspapers.
