Because it is a long way from the sea. the prevailing winds that carry rain come from the east and it had a mountain range along the east coast that causes clouds to drop most of their rain as the cross them. leaving little for the inland.
the Great Dividing Range blocks prevailing winds from the east

A high pressure center of dry air is called an anticyclone
A high pressure center is characterized by cool dry air, as it is associated with descending air that warms and dries as it sinks towards the surface.
Countries with hot dry homelands include Saudi Arabia, Australia, and Egypt. These countries typically experience arid or desert climates with high temperatures and low rainfall.
The lowest annual rainfall in Australia typically occurs in the arid regions of the continent, such as the Outback and central parts of Western Australia. In some areas, annual rainfall can be as low as 100 millimeters or less. The town of Marble Bar in Western Australia holds the record for the longest dry spell in Australia, with no rainfall recorded for 160 days.
Cities that are currently experiencing dry clear conditions include Phoenix, Arizona, Las Vegas, Nevada, and Adelaide, Australia. These cities often have low humidity levels and clear skies, resulting in dry weather conditions.
The dry inland of Australia is called the Outback.
yes? i hope so
Center to center, 4,952 miles or 7,969 kilometers. Shore to shore, not so much.
Because the center part is desert so the population distributed like this.
It is dry because of precipitation and low rainfall
Much of Australia is very dry, and both humans and animals needs water to survive. So where water is available becomes quite important to know.
Australia is made of land, it is a continent. Most of Australia is dry desert land.
Australia is very hot and dry so they get less than 10 inches of rain fall each year.
The question is misleading. People do live in the centre of Australia. Aice Springs is a small city of 26000 in central Australia. There are several reasons why fewer people live in central Australia. The weather sees extremes of dry heat in summer and bitter cold in winter. There are no permanent rivers, so agricultural opportunities are non-existent. Also, the centre of Australia is a very long way from the coastal areas where the climate is more temperate.
International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas was created in 1975.
