Mandurah in the Census

A coastal city of 90,306 south of Perth

The 2021 Census for the City of Mandurah council area, set beside Western Australia and Australia.

Mandurah counted 90,306 residents with a median age of 45, living as 25,111 families in 44,094 private dwellings at 2.4 people per household.

Mandurah beside WA and Australia (2021 Census shares)
Measure	Mandurah	WA	Australia
Technicians and trades workers (6,739 people)	18.6%	15.3%	12.9%
Professionals (5,215 people)	14.4%	22.0%	24.0%
Bachelor degree or higher (9,103 people)	12.2%	23.8%	26.3%
Residents aged 65 to 69 (6,242 people)	6.9%	5.0%	5.1%

Houses

Separate houses numbered 29,540, 83.5% of dwellings, against 79.7% across WA.

Apartments

Flats and apartments numbered 1,006, only 2.8% of dwellings.

Teenagers

The count included 4,962 people aged 15 to 19 and 4,506 aged 20 to 24.

The ABS estimate for the City of Mandurah at 30 June 2025 is 106,827. Census values include small random adjustments for privacy, so a table's rows can differ from its total; we print what the bureau printed and never add rows to make a total.

Signature project

Does one error band fit every distance on Mandurah's roads?

Pairs of Main Roads WA reference points on the same road, comparing distance along the road with distance as the crow flies, for trips up to 4 kilometres.

How the errors grow with distance, 1,623 pairs (our analysis, 10 October 2026)
Distance along the road	Pairs	Typical error	Fixed band covers	Scaled band covers
Up to 0.5 km	520	28 m	100.0%	99.4%
0.5 to 1 km	503	107 m	99.6%	97.2%
1 to 2 km	408	276 m	92.2%	91.2%
2 to 4 km	192	606 m	78.6%	85.4%

1. Fit a line

A straight line through the origin predicts the crow-flies distance as 0.8710 times the road distance. On average that is a fair summary of how much the roads bend.

2. Look at the misses

The typical miss grows from 28 metres on short hops to 606 metres between 2 and 4 kilometres. Statisticians call errors whose size changes like this heteroscedastic.

3. Test the band

A single band of plus or minus 507 metres catches 95.4% of all pairs, which sounds right, but only 78.6% of the longest group, while being absurdly wide for the shortest.

An average that hides two failures

Overall coverage of 95.4% looks like a well calibrated model. It is really two mistakes cancelling: far too cautious for short trips and overconfident for long ones. A band that grows in proportion to distance is much narrower where errors are small, about 175 metres wide on average for the shortest trips, and catches more of the long ones. Weighting the fit so that noisy long pairs count less also moves the slope from 0.8710 to 0.9132.

Pairs come from 102 roads whose points run continuously, led by Lakelands Lake Clifton Road, Pinjarra Road and Melville Mandurah Highway. Beyond 4 kilometres nearly all pairs come from a few long main roads, so the analysis stops there. Every fit and percentage is our own calculation from the Main Roads WA open data.

Honest uncertainty

Checking whether a model's errors behave

Practised on Mandurah's road points, then used on house price models, delivery time estimates or any AI prediction with a confidence figure.

Checks on the Mandurah road model
Check	Method	What it showed
Plot residuals against the input	Scatter of error against road distance	A funnel that widens to the right
Split coverage by group	Band coverage for each distance range	100.0% for short trips, 78.6% for long
Let the band grow	Width proportional to distance	Closer to 95% in three of four ranges, far narrower for short trips
Weight the fit	Least squares weighted by 1 over distance squared	Slope rises from 0.8710 to 0.9132

An overall accuracy figure is a single number covering many situations. Breaking it down by the size of the input, or by any group that matters, is how hidden overconfidence is found, and it costs only a few lines of code.

Secondary students

Fit the line, plot the residuals and explain in a paragraph why the points fan out.

University students

Weighted least squares, conformal-style bands and testing calibration within groups.

Adults at work

Any forecast with a plus or minus attached deserves the same check by size and by group.

Around Mandurah

Perth time and the WA school year

Details that shape when a Mandurah learner can take a live lesson.

Steady clock

Mandurah keeps Western Australian time, UTC plus 8, with no daylight saving in any season.

India time

India time is two and a half hours behind Mandurah all year, which makes early evening slots easy to fill.

Eastern states

Sydney is two hours ahead of Mandurah in winter and three during eastern daylight saving.

WA public school terms in 2027

The department lists Term 1 from Monday 1 February to Friday 9 April, Term 2 from Monday 26 April to Friday 2 July, Term 3 from Monday 19 July to Friday 24 September and Term 4 from Monday 11 October to Thursday 16 December.

Coding and AI

Would an AI assistant report the right uncertainty?

It tends to give one number for everything.

Ask a chatbot to fit this data and add a 95% interval, and it will usually compute one standard deviation from all the residuals and apply it everywhere. The summary statistics look perfect, and the band is wrong for nearly every individual trip.

Our Mandurah learners let AI write the regression, then split the errors by distance and test coverage in each range themselves. When the tool says 95%, they ask: for whom?

A Mandurah learner who has seen a 95% band cover only 78.6% of the cases that matter will question any confidence figure an AI produces, in 2026 and long after. The longer argument is in how to learn AI properly rather than just using it.

FAQ

Questions about AI and programming in Mandurah

What Mandurah families and adult learners ask before they begin.

How many people live in Mandurah?

The 2021 Census counted 90,306 people in the City of Mandurah council area. The ABS estimate at 30 June 2025 is 106,827.

What does heteroscedastic mean?

Heteroscedastic describes errors whose spread changes with the input. In the Mandurah road data the typical error is about 28 metres for trips under half a kilometre and about 606 metres for trips of 2 to 4 kilometres, so one fixed error band cannot suit both.

What is the Mandurah road distance project?

Learners download Main Roads WA reference points around Mandurah, pair points on the same road, predict straight-line distance from road distance, and test whether a fixed or a distance-scaled error band gives honest coverage at every distance.

What is an SLK?

SLK stands for straight line kilometre, the distance along a road from its starting point that Main Roads WA uses to locate places on the network. The open data gives the SLK and coordinates of each reference point.

Can ATAR students join?

Yes. Year 11 and 12 students fit lessons around ATAR courses, and assessed school work always stays their own.

What lesson times work in Mandurah?

After school, evenings, weekends and some daytime slots for adults, agreed in the trial and written in Western Australian time. India time is two and a half hours behind Mandurah year round.

Are younger children catered for?

Yes, from age 6 with visual coding, although the road data project is designed for teenagers and adults.

Is there a Modern Age Coders office in Mandurah?

No, and we do not claim one. Teaching is live and online only, with no premises anywhere in Australia. A learner needs a laptop or desktop, working sound and a steady connection, and the contact number on this page is an Indian number.

What do AI and programming classes in Mandurah cost?

The first lesson is free. After that a group place costs USD 100 a month for two live lessons a week, about eight a month, with fifteen to twenty learners, or USD 150 a month for the same pattern one to one. Course, format and time are agreed before any payment.

How large are the groups?

Between five and ten learners, matched on level, pace and goals rather than on age or postcode. When no group fits a workable time, one-to-one lessons are offered instead.
