Communities do not remain static, but continually experience change. There are many inter connected factors that contribute to the changes and differences between and within communities. In a world that is experiencing rapid globalisation it is important for decision-makers within communities to understand and respond to these changes

Describe the factors causing change in relation to Australia's communities.

Include in your response:

  • the location of a community effected
  • Roseville is located between the suburbs of Chatswood and Lindfield. It is right off the pacific highway and at a good distance between the beaches and the City, being not too close, but not far away. 
  • the specific characteristics of this community (eg. rural/urban, population, ethnicity, age, any other characteristics that make it a community).
  • Roseville is a significantly cultural and age-variable community. It is completely urban, with no nearby forests or environments of rural nature. With its close proximity to Chatswood, the culture is of high Asian percentage. Caucasians tend to take up the rest of the percentage. Roseville is a quieter more relaxed community, with little to no high rising apartment blocks. 
  • Description of the factors causing change in your chosen community.
  • The culture: with the constant rise of different cultures, the change in the predominant culture has been modified. There has also been additions of smaller apartment blocks with the rising population. 
  • Describe the effects of those changes upon your chosen community.
  • The effects of these modifications are significant. With these additions, it over crowds our community and the "quite" "relaxed" culture of our society is being rapidly diminished. And with the changing culture, the Australian community is weakened.
