1.1 Million?!
Da fuq?
Innaccurate infographic.
Toowoomba is missing? I had a boss from there once. Very proud of the fact it was the second biggest inland city in the country.
City populations are measured using satellite-mapped urban footprints for global consistency.
Is global consistency more important than accuracy? This says Perth has 1.1M people, which is a pretty huge difference from the actual 2.3M. Seems useless. I guess that means it’s twice as spread out as whatever the standard is, but then make that map instead.
Does point cook really have 405k people? Seems wrong.
Wikipedia and this site put it around 70k. areasearch.com.au/suburb/point_cook
Don’t even get a mention in Darwin haha

@mods This account is behaving suspiciously
@noumenon@lemmy.world you’ve been posting a lot of very average content in the last couple of hours.
This should be taken down. Australia is 28m people this year. Even Auckland has 1.7m.
Not sure why a 14d old account would just spam a bunch of infographics based on bad or outdated information on a Sunday.

Since you’re copying and pasting comments, I will do the same:
Happy to take it down since there seems to be consensus over its inaccuracy.
I post more than just infographics. Please take a wider view than the span of a couple hours. I’ve created a structure for myself to gather infographics on a weekly basis on weekends when I’m off work. So yes, you can expect them to be posted on a Saturday or Sunday. It’s not my intention to share infographics based on bad or outdated information. I would’ve thought the UN World Urbanization Prospects is a reliable source of information.
