This analysis uses ABS Statistical Areas Level 2 (SA2) boundaries, which can materially differ from Suburbs and Localities (SAL) even when sharing similar names.
SA2 boundaries are defined by the Australian Bureau of Statistics and are designed to represent communities for statistical reporting (e.g., census and ERP).
Suburbs and Localities (SAL) represent commonly-used suburb/locality names (postal-style areas) and may use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Detail
According to research conducted by AreaSearch, the resident count in Albury Surrounds stands at approximately 13,698 as of Aug 2026. This represents an expansion of 1,191 people (9.5%) compared to the 2021 Census, when 12,507 people were enumerated. This population trajectory combines the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population figure of 13,394 with 391 validated new addresses identified following the Census. The local population density sits at 2.5 persons per square kilometer, highlighting a spacious living environment. With its 9.5% gain post-2021 census, Albury Surrounds outpaced both the Rest of NSW (5.1%) and the wider SA4 region, positioning it as a regional frontrunner in demographic expansion.
Inflows from interstate migration served as the foremost catalyst, generating roughly 68.6% of recent population additions, alongside positive contributions across natural increase and overseas arrivals. Projections utilized by AreaSearch for SA2 boundaries rely on ABS/Geoscience Australia figures published in 2024 (taking 2022 as baseline) or, where unavailable, NSW State Government SA2 datasets issued in 2022 (anchored to 2021). Age-specific expansion trajectories derived from these series are extended across all localities from 2032 to 2041. Based on expected demographic patterns and the most recent annual ERP benchmarks, Albury Surrounds is positioned within the top quartile for growth across regional Australia, with an anticipated influx of 3,018 persons leading up to 2041, corresponding to a total gain of 19.8% across the 16 years.

Detail
Residential planning approvals across Albury Surrounds average approximately 92 dwellings per year, culminating in 464 homes sanctioned across the preceding 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26). Building volumes have tracked alongside demographic intake, with 2.4 new residents added annually for each dwelling constructed over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), underpinning sustained local property demand. Approved residential projects carry an average construction cost of $511,000—moderately higher than the wider regional benchmark—indicating an emphasis on premium residential construction. Additionally, $30.2 million in commercial approvals has been recorded during the current financial year, underscoring robust non-residential investment.
On a per-capita basis, building approval volumes in Albury Surrounds align closely with the Rest of NSW, sustaining equilibrium across the broader market. Residential building activity is heavily skewed toward standalone homes, with 97.0% detached houses against 3.0% attached dwellings, reinforcing low-density neighborhood character favored by buyers seeking land and space. A ratio of approximately 154 people per approval underscores an actively expanding community. Projections indicate that Albury Surrounds will absorb an additional 2,714 residents leading up to 2041 (anchored to the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate). While local construction levels continue to match demographic forecasts, expanding population numbers could intensify residential market competition.

7,157 residents of Albury Surrounds are employed, from a labour force of 7,374. Unemployment sits at 2.9%, with participation at 68.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.5% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 12,027, about 88% of the resident population, so more people leave the area for work than travel in. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
The local labour market in Albury Surrounds is characterized by a skilled resident workforce, diverse industry participation, and a low unemployment rate of 2.9%. In March 2026, employed residents reached 7,157, while joblessness registered 1.2% lower than the 4.1% recorded across Regional NSW. Participation levels remain exceptionally elevated at 68.6% (compared to 60.6% across Regional NSW). Furthermore, 17.4% of working locals reported working from home at the Census, though prevailing Covid-19 restrictions at the time should be kept in mind. The resident workforce is predominantly engaged across agriculture, forestry & fishing, health care & social assistance, and construction.
Specialization is particularly elevated in agriculture, forestry & fishing, which commands a workforce proportion 3.6 times the regional average. Conversely, health care & social assistance represents 12.7% of resident jobs, trailing the regional benchmark of 16.9%. Comparisons between resident worker tallies and local workplace numbers from the Census point toward a comparatively constrained pool of employment within the immediate area. AreaSearch assessment of ABS and SALM metrics shows that throughout the 12 months to March 2026, the local workforce shrank by 4.2% and overall employment fell by 5.2%, pushing the unemployment rate up by 1.1 percentage points. Across Regional NSW, employment contracted by 0.9% and the labour force receded by 0.4%, yielding a 0.5 percentage point increase in joblessness. Broader employment trajectories can also be evaluated through national industry projections issued by Jobs and Skills Australia in Mar-26. These five- and ten-year models have been aligned with the area's sectoral distribution to evaluate local employment outlooks. Nationally, total employment is projected to expand by 6.6% across five years and 13.7% across ten years, though rates vary by sector. Weighting these projections against the industry distribution of Albury Surrounds indicates potential local employment increases of 5.5% across five years and 12.0% across ten years (note that this weighting model serves illustrative purposes and excludes local demographic forecasts).

How the numbers are built
Population
The Census provides the small-area baseline, aggregated from mesh blocks to this boundary. It is then re-based to the ABS Estimated Resident Population (June 2025 release), and new dwellings built since Census night are counted from address data — 391 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (12,507 at the 2021 Census → 13,698 now). Annual growth rates are compound (CAGR), not simple averages.
Age profile
Cohort shares are not raw Census counts. Every cohort is held as a pair — the Census baseline and a current estimate — and the split is re-based using ERP and state population projections, current to Aug 2026. Median age is the Census median plus modelled change since. Charts that show both are labelled "2021 Census vs Current Estimate".
Property sales
Sourced from the state valuation authority's sales register — current, not Census, and refreshed weekly. Medians are calculated from settled transactions in the period shown; periods with very low transaction counts are flagged or suppressed, because a handful of sales can move a median substantially.
Rents
Derived from state rental bond lodgement data, by dwelling type and bedroom count. Bonds are lodged at the start of a new tenancy, so this reflects new lettings, not the whole rented stock.
Development & infrastructure
Building approvals come from current ABS releases; development applications are collected from council and state planning portals; the infrastructure pipeline is compiled from Infrastructure Australia and local government sources. Applications are matched to this boundary by address or coordinates, so very recent lodgements may not yet appear.
Employment & income
Industry and occupation structure comes from the Census, but the headline labour-market indicators do not. Unemployment and labour force are derived from ABS Small Area Labour Markets (quarterly). The employment outlook applies Department of Employment forecasts for all 19 industry divisions to this area's own industry mix (the agency is now Jobs and Skills Australia), as does the Internet Vacancy Index used for job demand. Because it is weighted on industry composition alone, that outlook carries no allowance for local population growth — in fast-growing areas the real rise in local jobs will typically be higher. Income combines Census household income with ATO taxable-income statistics for FY 2023, indexed forward using the Wage Price Index.
Education, transport & amenities
School enrolments, ICSEA and performance come from ACARA's current release, not the Census. Public transport stops and service frequency are derived from GTFS timetable feeds published by state transport departments. Services and amenities are proximity and count scores built from provider directories, refreshed on their own cycle. The Census contributes only the travel-to-work and qualification measures.
Rankings and benchmarks. Where we rank this area, the comparison set is every area of the same boundary type — suburbs against suburbs, SA2s against SA2s. Benchmarks compare this area against its greater capital city region and the national figure for the same measure and period.
Limits worth knowing. Small areas carry larger error margins, and the ABS introduces small random adjustments to Census counts to protect confidentiality — so totals may not sum exactly. Estimates re-based from regional data describe the area's expected trajectory, not a direct count of it. Figures are indicative for research and are not financial, planning or valuation advice.
