The latest Scanlon Foundation Mapping Social Cohesion Survey, based on responses from 10,000 Australians, finds that Australians continue to lose faith in high immigration amid deteriorating living standards.
One in three Australians (32%) believe their lives will be “a little or much worse” in the next three to four years. The survey notes this is roughly three times higher than when the survey began in 2006.
Measures of happiness have also gradually declined over the past two decades.
