ABS Statistical Geography
ABS Statistical Geography refers to the standardized way the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) divides the country into regions for data collection and analysis. These geographical units, such as states, territories, and smaller areas like suburbs or communities, enable consistent, comparable, and detailed demographic, economic, and social statistics across Australia. This system helps government agencies, researchers, and businesses understand regional trends, plan services, and make informed decisions based on accurate geographic distinctions.
