Area in square kilometres
AREA_ALBERS_SQKM
The area of a region in square kilometres, based on the Albers equal area conic projection.
Start of financial year (no.)
start_finyr
Number of businesses as of July 1, 2024. End of financial year (no.) end_finyr
Number of businesses as of June 1, 2025. Annual change (no.) Change This attribute indicates the net change in the count of businesses within the specified LGA over the period from the start to the end financial year. It shows whether there was a growth or decline in business numbers. Annual change (%) Perc_Change This is the percentage change in the number of businesses from the start to the end financial year.
