What about the 90% of Australia that isn't metro areas and these boundaries are
all over the place and don't line up with towns, they're usually smaller or
larger depending if the town grew, they also appear all over the place in rural
areas where there is no town.
It's the last point that I found them just noise they don't provide any
meaningful information in rural areas, other than being boundaries for the ABS.
I realise there is a need to show town and suburb boundaries. One way would be
to elevate them to admin_level=9, another would be to alter the boundaries in
rural areas to a lower admin_level. Either way the amount of work needed would
be about the same.
