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.

Banora Point has an estimated 16,808 residents, up from 16,320 at the 2021 Census — a change of 488 people, or 3.0%. Growth has averaged 0.7% a year over five years. That puts 1,781 residents on each square kilometre. Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.
Detail
According to the analysis by AreaSearch, the resident count of Banora Point is estimated at 16,808 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 488 residents (3.0%) from the 16,320 individuals recorded in the 2021 Census. This population shift is calculated using the ABS estimated resident population of 16,796 from June 2025 alongside 35 validated new addresses registered after the Census. The resulting population density stands at 1,780 persons per square kilometer, exceeding the typical figure for national sites evaluated by AreaSearch. The suburb's 3.0% post-census growth rate is within 0.7 percentage points of the broader SA4 region (3.7%), demonstrating competitive expansion metrics.
The upward trend was mainly fueled by arrivals from other states, who accounted for roughly 61.7% of the total population gains in recent times. For each SA2 locality, AreaSearch applies projections released by the ABS and Geoscience Australia in 2024, using 2022 as their starting point. Where this dataset lacks coverage, the NSW State Government projections from 2022, which use a 2021 baseline, are implemented instead. Age-specific growth patterns derived from these sources are extended to all areas for the timeframe spanning 2032 to 2041. Based on these demographic forecasts, expansion is projected to match the lower quartile of regional areas across the nation, with the local population predicted to grow by 557 individuals by 2041 relative to the latest annual ERP statistics, representing an overall increase of 3.2% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
118 new dwellings have been approved in Banora Point over the past five years, an average of 23 a year. That is 1.5 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 19, broadly in line with that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
An average of approximately 23 residential approvals have been granted annually in Banora Point, amounting to 118 homes over the last 5 financial years. In the current FY-26 period, 18 approvals have been registered. With an average of 4.9 new residents per built dwelling arriving annually over the 5 financial years between FY-21 and FY-25, demand outpaces new building activity, which typically encourages upward pressure on prices and heightens competition among buyers, while new builds average a construction value of $326,000. Additionally, commercial approvals worth $1.1 million have been recorded this financial year, indicating that the local development landscape remains focused on residential projects.
In comparison to the Rest of NSW, development pace in Banora Point is low, falling 53.0% below the regional per capita average. This restricted volume of new builds generally underpins demand and supports values for existing real estate. This level of building activity also sits below the national average, reflecting the established state of the locality and pointing to possible planning constraints. Recent completions consist of 81.0% detached houses and 19.0% medium and high-density options, preserving the traditional suburban style characterized by spacious family properties. Notably, the proportion of detached houses under construction exceeds the historical distribution (63.0% at Census), showing sustained appetite for single-family residences despite broader densification trends. The area records approximately 1193 people per residential approval, highlighting a mature property market. Demographic projections indicate that Banora Point will add 545 residents by 2041, measured from the most recent quarterly estimate by AreaSearch. Given current building trends, the volume of incoming housing supply is expected to easily satisfy this demand, maintaining favorable purchasing conditions for buyers and potentially supporting population growth above current forecasts.

7,464 residents of Banora Point are employed, from a labour force of 7,666. Unemployment sits at 2.6%, with participation at 55.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 14,058, about 84% 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 workforce in Banora Point is distributed across professional and manual occupations, with a notable presence in essential service industries, an unemployment rate sitting at 2.6%, and estimated employment growth of 3.6% over the past year. In March 2026, employed residents numbered 7,464, with the local unemployment rate running 1.5% below the Regional NSW benchmark of 4.1%, whereas workforce participation is considerably lower (55.0% compared to 60.6% in Regional NSW). According to Census data, a modest 12.7% of the working population operated from home, though this figure may reflect the influence of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
The primary employment fields for local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction. The community displays a distinct specialization in retail trade, where the concentration of jobs is 1.4 times the regional proportion. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 0.7% of the local workforce, contrasting with 5.3% across Regional NSW. The largely residential character of the suburb means local job opportunities are relatively scarce, as shown by comparing the count of resident workers against the local working-age population. Analysis of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch indicates that during the 12 months ending March 2026, the count of employed residents rose by 3.6% and the total labor force grew by 3.9%, which pushed the unemployment rate up by 0.3 percentage points. Conversely, Regional NSW saw employment fall by 0.9% and its labor force contract by 0.4%, accompanied by a 0.5 percentage point increase in unemployment. National employment forecasts published by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 offer additional context regarding future demand trends in Banora Point. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce structure to model future employment paths. Although overall employment across Australia is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates vary widely by industry. Applying these sectoral projections to the employment profile of Banora Point suggests local jobs will grow by 6.8% over five years and 14.0% over ten years, using a basic weighted extrapolation for illustrative purposes that excludes local population 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 — 35 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (16,320 at the 2021 Census → 16,808 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 May 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.
