The given bar chart illustrates the proportion of people from five different nations migrating to Australia in 1962, 1982 and 2002.
Overall, it is evident that the percentage of Italian immigrants to Australia was highest during the period in question, except in 1982 when Vietnam ranked first among the five countries. Additionally, while the rates of UK, Indian and Vietnamese immigrants increased, the opposite was true for New Zealanders and Italians over the given period.
In 1962, Italian people accounted for the highest percentage of immigrants to Australia, at precisely 40%, while the figures for Vietnam and the UK were identical, at 10%. Meanwhile, around 7% of immigrants to Australia came from New Zealand, compared to only about 2% from India.
Over the following 40 years, the figure for IItalian immigrants fell sharply to 15%, while increases to approximately 12% and 15% in the figures for the UK and India respectively. At the same time, an opposite trend could be observed with regard to the rates of immigrants from New Zealand and Vietnam, at 5% and and 13% respectively.
