A mental or behavioral issue was reported in over 25% of Australians with disabilities. Male prevalence was 17.6 million, while female prevalence was somewhat higher at 17.8 million between the sexes. Age-wise, 11.6% of adults between 0 and 64 in Australia had a disability, compared to 49.6% of seniors 65 and over. 53.4% of Australians aged 15 to 64 who have a disability are employed.<ref>{{Cite web |date=September 25, 2020 |title=Disability, Ageing and Carers, Australia: Summary of Findings, 2018 {{!}} Australian Bureau of Statistics |url=https://www.abs.gov.au/statistics/health/disability/disability-ageing-and-carers-australia-summary-findings/latest-release |access-date=October 5, 2022 |website=www.abs.gov.au |language=en}}</ref>
