Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS)

The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) is the national statistical agency of Australia. It collects, compiles, and analyzes data about the country's economy, population, and society. This information helps government, businesses, and individuals make informed decisions. The ABS conducts the national census every five years, which counts every person in Australia and gathers details about their living conditions. Additionally, it produces regular reports on topics such as employment, health, and housing, providing valuable insights that shape public policy and resource allocation. Essentially, the ABS helps to map out and understand Australia's diverse landscape.
