First Nations in Merino
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities — how many people identify as First Nations, and how they fare on age, schooling, work, income and language. From the ABS 2021 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples Profile; the ABS notes these counts are an undercount.
Zero Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are recorded as living in Merino, making it smaller than about 60% of similar areas. This lack of a population means the few available data points for the area are unusual, including a typical age that is far older than the national figure.
