Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2s) are medium-sized general purpose areas built up from whole Statistical Area Level 1 (SA1s). Most SA2s have a population range of 3,000 to 25,000 people. Their purpose is to represent a community that interacts together socially and economically.\n\nSA2s are generally the smallest areas used for the release of ABS non-Census of Population and Housing statistics, including Estimated Resident Population and Health and Vitals data. Whole SA2s aggregate to form Statistical Areas Level 3 (SA3s). SA2s are also used to build Significant Urban Areas and to approximate Tourism Regions.
