Brief description

This dataset presents the footprint of the percentage of tobacco use, alcohol risk and recent illicit drug use for people aged 14 years and over. The data spans the year of 2016 and is aggregated to Statistical Area Level 4 (SA4) geographic areas from the 2011 Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS).

The data is sourced from the 2016 National Drug Strategy Household Survey (NDSHS). The NDSHS is the leading survey of licit and illicit drug use in Australia. The 2016 survey was the 12th conducted under the auspices of the NDS. Previous surveys were conducted in 1985, 1988, 1991, 1993, 1995, 1998, 2001, 2004, 2007, 2010 and 2013. The data collected through these surveys have contributed to the development of policies for Australia's response to drug-related issues.

The NDSHS data accompanies the [National Drug Strategy Household Survey 2016: Detailed Findings Report](https://www.aihw.gov.au/reports/illicit-use-of-drugs/2016-ndshs-detailed/contents/summary).
