#' LGA wise ABS work population data on different ages for year 2016
#'
#' A dataset containing Australian Bureau of Statistics labour force population
#'   data by lga for 2016. The data sourced from 2016 Census - Employment,

#'   there are some cases where the estimated number of people being employed
#'   is higher than the population of those people. Such cases have been
#'   flagged under the `anomaly_flag` variable.
