A discrete Aboriginal community is a geographic location, bounded by physical or cadastral (legal) boundaries, and inhabited or intended to be inhabited predominantly (i.e. 50% or more of usual residents) by Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander peoples, with housing or infrastructure that is managed on a community basis either by them or an Indigenous Housing Organisation. This dataset represents a snapshot of Aboriginal communities as of 2017 and further updates to this dataset are not planned at this time.
