Interesting Minjup Facts #3

Forgot to mention that, on Friday, I had semi-professional cause to look at the latest cenusus data -- 2006 census recently crunched by the ABS.
Lots of interesting stuff in there but, for now, here are the bare bones.

Minjup is a place of some 1614 souls (1616 persons minus Chopper and Spookie?).
Of these 15 are Indigenous.
They make up some 549 households and, oddly enough, 548 dwellings.
(It's now a personal project to find the household that has no dwelling of its own -- possibly it's Chopper and Spookie combined as they appear to dwell only in the pub.)
332 of these dwellings have either 2 or 3 motor vehicles.
Sadly, the census does not count the number of horses, horse floats or beer consumption per capita -- all highly relevant local stats.
