In the 2016 Census, there were 17,023 people in Lakemba.[1]
Lakemba has had a diverse demographic history. Like most of the rest of Australia, its first non-Aboriginal inhabitants in the nineteenth century were British and Irish settlers. By the mid-twentieth century, the suburb had absorbed large numbers of Greek and Italian arrivals. Local businesses and clubs reflected this in Mediterranean delicatessens, take-away shops and the Greek Orthodox Club.
From the mid-1970s, Lakemba became very popular with migrants from Lebanon and by the mid-1990s the area was considered a centre of Lebanese Australian life. The founding of the Lakemba Mosque and the establishment of specialised restaurants, take-away shops, grocery shops, clothing and book sellers has encouraged a general perception of Lakemba as a predominantly Arab and Muslim suburb, particularly in the media. In recent times Lakemba has seen a large increase of people with Bangladeshi ancestry.
In 2016 31.5% of people were born in Australia. The most common countries of birth were Bangladesh 15.4%, Pakistan 6.6%, India 5.0%, Myanmar 4.7% and Lebanon 4.0%.
In terms of ancestry, the largest group in 2016 were those claiming Bangladeshi ancestry with 12.9%, followed by Lebanese 7.7%, Australian 6.7%, Indian 6.6% and Pakistani 6.0%.
14.7% of people only spoke English at home. Other languages spoken at home included Bengali 18.7%, Arabic 13.7%, Urdu 10.3%, Vietnamese 4.0% and Rohingya 3.9%.[1]
In the 2011 census, the most common responses were Islam 51.8% (8031), Catholic 13.4% (2072), Eastern Orthodox 6.2% (959), No Religion 5.3% (828) and Buddhism 4.3% (666).[3] In 2016, the most common responses for religion in Lakemba were Islam 59.2%, Catholic 10.3%, Not stated 8.5%, No Religion 6.5% and Eastern Orthodox 5.1%
