This chapter examines various direct and indirect sources of evidence of amenity migration to mountain and other inland areas in Australia. Using the national census, it finds statistically significant evidence of amenity migration and relates this to land and property values, property marketing materials, and data on rural residents operating tourism businesses on agricultural holdings and second-home owners. All the data sources indicate similar patterns, which coincide broadly with personal observations and anecdotal evidence of increasing amenity migration over recent decades.
