Suburb profile

Cook is an inner metropolitan suburb of Canberra, in Unincorporated ACT. It is primarily residential, without a particularly distinct commercial centre or landmark identity.

Reported crime is lower than in most comparable places. Reported offences have fallen 43% year on year, and university qualifications are more common than in comparable places, with university qualifications 13% above the peer median, and recorded road-crash rates are lower than in comparable places, with recorded road crashes 100% below the peer median, and mapped flood cover is an exceptional strength, with mapped flood cover 100% below the peer median. The clearer weaknesses are limited health access and thinner mapped green cover within the suburb boundary.

Cook's appeal is better explained by housing, access and location than by a strong standalone precinct or destination.

Generated from the official metrics on this page. It can omit nuance or contain errors — check the tables and source notes before relying on it.

ABS Estimated Resident Population allocated to this suburb from SA2-level data. Not an official ABS suburb count.

Methodology

Figures are allocated from ABS Estimated Resident Population at Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2), using 2021 Census share within overlapping SA2 regions. Where Census data is unavailable, area overlap is used instead.

The dashed chart line is a simple growth-trend estimate to June 2030 (~2,900), extrapolated at -0.1% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.

ABS Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA), 2021 release — the latest available, derived from the 2021 Census. Deciles rank suburbs nationally from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).

What do IRSAD and IRSD measure?

IRSAD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. Combines indicators of advantage (e.g. high income, skilled occupations) and disadvantage. Higher decile = more advantaged relative to other Australian areas.

IRSD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage. Focuses on disadvantage only (e.g. low income, unemployment, limited education). Higher decile = less disadvantage nationally.

A new SEIFA edition typically follows each census; the ABS has not announced a release date beyond 2021.
