Visitors in Australia by overseas resident

The line graph and table are showing the number of visitors to Australia by overseas resident from 1975 to 2005. In this essay I am going to describe the specific information.

First of all, the overall trend is that Australia becomes one of the most popular countries because the number of the visitors is increasing. In 1975 the visitors to Australia by overseas resident around 10 million because it was a new idea for people. Next, after 10 years the number of visitors increased sharply by 5 million. After that, the huge increased happened from 1985 to 1995 which was approximately 10 million. A further increase happened in 2005 when the number of visitors reached about 30 million.

Secondly, on the other hand we have a table which shows you the number of visitors from different countries. The highest increase was for Japan which was close to 9 million because Japan is very close to Australia. While the lowest increased was for USA which was around 1 million because most American people do not have passport and it’s very far from Australia.

All in all, the two figures are connected together because both of them show us the percentage of Australia visitors.
