[@OKFNau] looking for ideas

And some more: [though I'm guessing you already know this? :)]

SEIFA indexes are available on the ABS website, free of charge (
http://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs@.nsf/mf/2033.0.55.001). SEIFA is based
on Census data and it looks like this:

Under the Data section, the Description of available output provides
information on the SEIFA 2011 output available at different geographic
units (SA1, SA2, SA3, SA4, SLA, LGA, State Suburb (SSC), Postal Area (POA),
Commonwealth Electoral Division (CED), State Electoral Division (SED)).

To get here, go to the ABS home page (http://www.abs.gov.au).

Select the Census button from the grey banner at the top of the page:

This will take you to the Census home page:

Select the Data analysis button in the bar on the LHS of the page. This
will take you to the following page:

Choose the SEIFA  button in the bar on the LHS of the page. This will take
you to the SEIFA 2011 home page:

Select SEIFA 2011 from the bar on the RHS of the page. This will take you
here:

Click on the hyperlink and go from there......

If any further assistance is required, I would suggest trying the NIRS line
again - 1300 135 070.

Cheers,
