Sorry, your blog cannot share posts by email. There is no correlation between the area of states and territories and population. For example, Victoria is the smallest mainland state but is the second most populous, and the area includes one of the country's most populated cities, Melbourne.
Of course, the Blue Mountains, and the Newcastle and Wollongong areas will be a part of Sydney, as will southern parts of the Hunter Valley, so the increase in population will not necessarily mean a commensurate increase in traffic. It cannot be a good thing for cities to become sprawling cesspits of humanity, but it is equally tragic to see Australian country towns become ghost towns. To see homes in provincial centres empty and on the market for a song with no takers, and shops boarded up is becoming commonplace in this country.
This is one of the three big problems facing the nation. The other problem is that with a population of 24 million approx we only have about 12 million in full time employment. We have three quarters of a million officially unemployed, and several more million underemployed, or children, the elderly or disabled. One of the reasons can be exemplified in the Motor Industry.
In when we started to manufacture our own cars on our own assembly lines, on Australian soil, using Australian workers we celebrated wildly. Like the country towns of Australia, our assembly plants are ghost yards. We could not compete against the imported products, because everybody got paid too much. With our shrinking economy, and shifting population to the coastal fringes, these are our problems, and until addressed the problem just gets worst.
Our PM, is of course, a man of enormous wealth, who has heeded the Trump message, and said he is will now listen to the average Australian. This, from his Point Piper ivory tower, whilst commuting in some air conditioned contraption to his ivory tower in Canberra. That is not where the people are, Mr. They are somewhere else.

This blog has been superseded with an updated version — Top 50 largest cities and towns in Australia by population. Of the list of centres over 50,, 11 are all or part in Queensland, while only 8 are all or part in NSW to be fair, the next 4, just under 50, are all in NSW! Though a state capital, Hobart sits well behind the non-capital cities of Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Newcastle and Wollongong, as our 11th largest city.
Western Australia only has 3 centres over the 50, mark, and one of those, Mandurah, is about to be subsumed into Greater Perth under the new geographic classification. Always in competition, Ballarat and Bendigo are next to each other on the list, with Ballarat still having a slightly higher population the Local Government Area of Greater Bendigo has a higher population but the outer parts are excluded from the official urban area.
There is also a strong rivalry between Launceston and Hobart, but Hobart has a much larger population. Three of these centres cross state borders. Why did the Estimated Resident Population change?
