Why do most Australians live near coastal areas?
Most of Australia is covered with desert; the coast has more fresh water and a more temperate climate.
The coastal areas are home to the Aborigines; but since the Apology other Australians choose to live among them.
Most of Australia has a harsh mountain climate; the coastal areas are flatter, so it's easier to farm and build towns and cities.
The coastal areas have the best land for wildlife, fishing, and water resources which the people use to meet their basic needs.
