The proportion of Australians who were born overseas has hit its highest point in 120 years, with 28 per cent of Australia's population - 6.6 million people - born overseas, according to figures released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).
"Australia traditionally had a high proportion of migrants, but we've now hit a peak not seen since the gold rushes of the late 1800s," said Denise Carlton from the ABS.
In 2013-14, net overseas migration (NOM) reflected an annual gain of 212,700 persons, 9.7% less than in 2012-13.
At 30 June 2014, 28.1% of Australia's estimated resident population (ERP) that is 6.6 million people were born overseas.
