Despite these improvements, significant gaps remain between average outcomes for Indigenous
and other Australians. Indigenous Australians on average continue to have lower levels of education
and employment, lower levels of household income and wealth, higher levels of disability, poorer
general health, and are more likely to live in disadvantaged neighbourhoods (AHMAC 2015; AIHW
2014a, 2014b, 2015a; Biddle & Yap 2010; SCRGSP 2014b).
