Some quality, factual reading above from the Institute of Criminology. Extracts:
"Communities with a high propensity for arson often have a high proportion of children under 15 and lower education levels, employment rates and household income than the national average"
"In Australia, it is difficult to get a consolidated understanding of the profile of bushfire arsonists and their motivations, mainly because of the low numbers that are apprehended. There is quite a rich international literature where numbers are higher which suggests a distinct profile, that is, white male, mid-20s, patchy employment record, often above average intelligence but poor academic achievement and poor social development (Willis 2004). However, it is not clear whether this would translate to the Australian context."
