Changes: Reshaped by OpenDataRouter from the ABS Data API dataflow ERP_Q to one row per sex, age, region and quarter, the estimated resident population only (the annual change measures are left out); periods typed as dates (the first day of each quarter) and values as whole-number decimals. Values unchanged.
