Local Government Area (LGA) - Top 10

The LGA 'Top 10' chart uses the same home location analysis, but presents the LGA density data in a bar chart, sorted by highest LGA.

Figure 1 shows the Top 10 Local Government Areas (LGAs) that workers from a particular building live in, by percentage

The capital letters in brackets next to the LGA (eg (C)) indicates what the "status" of that LGA is. So, what is an "LGA status"?
