Australia
Unlike many other countries, Australia has only one level of local government
immediately beneath state and territorial governments. A local government area
(LGA) often contains several towns and even entire cities. Thus, aside from very
sparsely populated areas and a few other special cases, almost all of Australia is
part of an LGA. Unincorporated areas are often in remote locations, cover vast
areas or have very small populations.
