The term "Middle Australian" is a socio-political term which generally refers to middle class or lower-middle class Australian people who hold traditional or right-wing views.[1][2][3] As such, it does not refer to the geographical middle of the country, but rather to the socio-economic middle (as is also the primary meaning of the monikers "Middle America" or "Middle England").[4][5]
