Mesh Blocks are the smallest geographic areas defined by the ABS and form the building blocks for the larger regions of the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS). Statistical Area Level 1 (SA1s) are generally the smallest geographic unit used to release Census of Population and Housing data; however, for ASGS Edition 4, limited Census of Population and Housing data may also be available at the Mesh Block level.<\/p>\n

ASGS hierarchical boundaries are consistent within the same release edition only - combine releases with extreme care<\/p>\n
