Although the EAs are grouped into "Sub-Places" (SPs) and not "Suburbs", they do provide a reasonable approximation. Defining suburb boundaries is a bit tricky as they are not official entities.<div><br></div><div>If you need populations, then you'll have to go for the Small Areas, which are slightly larger (in some cases) than the EAs. They are also grouped into SPs.</div><div><br></div><div>All the best,</div><div><br><div apple-content-edited="true">
