population.com.auSignificant Urban Areas (abbreviated as SUA) represent individual Urban Centres with a core urban population over 10,000 persons. They can also include related peri-urban areas too. SUAs are aggregations of statistical areas level 2 (SA2) which enables them to provide a broad range of regularly updated ABS demographic and social statistics that are not available for the SA1 based Urban Centres and Localities.
