About this data · Market information, not advice

Participants: NDIA public data by council area (© National Disability Insurance Scheme Agency 2013, CC BY 4.0). Providers: NDIS Commission provider register, counted where they publish an outlet, or at their head office if they publish none. About half of outlets have no published location and many providers travel to participants, so a low count is a signal to look closer, not proof of a gap. Areas with fewer than 100 participants are not ranked. Only registered providers are counted. We rank areas, never providers. Market information, not investment or business advice.
