Australia

A population concentrated around large urban areas

Australia is one of the fastest-growing developed countries by population, driven by very high net immigration. About one in four inhabitants was born abroad, one of the highest rates among major economies. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, the continent's first inhabitants, make up about 3.2% of the total population (2.9% Aboriginal and 0.3% Torres Strait Islander according to the 2021 census).
