First Nations in Chances Plain

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.

A massive gap separates Chances Plain from the rest of the state in terms of First Nations income and age. While the community is very small, the typical household income for First Nations residents is far above the national figure. This contrasts with a First Nations population that is far younger than the state and national average.
