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.

Sales Detail
Bathurst Surrounds has an estimated 7,101 residents, up from 6,909 at the 2021 Census — a change of 192 people, or 2.8%. Fewer than ten people live on each square kilometre, across a boundary that takes in surrounding rural land. Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.
Detail
Based on AreaSearch's evaluation, the population of Bathurst Surrounds stands at approximately 7,101 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 192 individuals (2.8%) from the 6,909 residents recorded in the 2021 Census. The adjustment is calculated using the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population of 7,094 combined with 53 validated new addresses registered after the Census. This population level translates to a density of 1.9 persons per square kilometer, which indicates a low-density living environment with significant space per resident. The area's 2.8% growth rate since the 2021 census outperformed the broader SA4 region (2.2%), establishing it as a local growth leader.
The primary driver of this expansion was natural increase, which accounted for roughly 46.7% of the total population growth, though other factors such as overseas and interstate migration also made positive contributions. AreaSearch incorporates projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia released in 2024 using 2022 as the baseline. For SA2 regions lacking this coverage, NSW State Government projections released in 2022 with a 2021 baseline are applied. Age bracket growth trends derived from these sources are extended to all areas for the period spanning 2032 to 2041. Future demographic patterns suggest population growth exceeding the median for non-metropolitan parts of Australia, with the local population projected to rise by 830 residents by 2041 based on the most recent annual ERP statistics, representing a cumulative increase of 11.6% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
147 new dwellings have been approved in Bathurst Surrounds over the past five years, an average of 29 a year. That is 4.2 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 23 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 100% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 21, well below 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 29 new residential building approvals has been registered annually in Bathurst Surrounds, culminating in 147 dwellings over the last 5 financial years. In the current FY-26 period, 20 approvals have been recorded. Given that an average of only 1 new resident per new dwelling arrived annually between FY-21 and FY-25, residential supply is meeting or exceeding local demand, ensuring diverse choices for buyers and building capacity for growth beyond projected levels. New homes in the area carry an average construction value of $440,000, which is higher than the regional average and points to a focus on premium construction.
Furthermore, commercial approvals totaling $1.8 million have been registered in the current financial year, reinforcing the predominantly residential nature of local development. Bathurst Surrounds displays comparable per capita building activity to the Rest of NSW, indicating a balanced property market aligned with regional trends. New additions to the housing stock have consisted entirely of detached houses, which maintains the low-density character of the area and caters to buyers seeking spacious properties. The ratio of 354 residents per dwelling approval highlights a quiet development sector with low overall activity. Long-term forecasts indicate Bathurst Surrounds will add 823 residents by 2041, measured from the most recent AreaSearch quarterly figures. Current construction activity appears aligned with future requirements, supporting stable market conditions and preventing significant price inflation.

4,000 residents of Bathurst Surrounds are employed, from a labour force of 4,060. Unemployment sits at 1.5%, with participation at 69.2%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.7% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 5,720, about 81% 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 workforce is highly skilled with strong representation in essential services, and the unemployment rate is low at 1.5%. As of March 2026, there are 4,000 employed residents, with an unemployment rate 2.6 percentage points lower than the Regional NSW average of 4.1%. Workforce participation is high at 69.2%, compared to 60.6% for Regional NSW. According to Census data, a moderate proportion of the workforce (20.5%) worked from home, though this figure may reflect the influence of pandemic lockdowns. The primary employment fields for residents are agriculture, forestry & fishing, health care & social assistance, and construction.
The community exhibits a strong concentration in agriculture, forestry & fishing, with employment shares 2.5 times the regional benchmark. In contrast, health care & social assistance is underrepresented at 12.7% of the workforce compared to the regional benchmark of 16.9%. A comparison of the Census working population against resident workers suggests local employment opportunities within the area itself are limited. Analysis of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch indicates that for the year ending March 2026, the local labour force contracted by 1.2% and employment fell by 1.7%, leading to a 0.5 percentage point rise in the unemployment rate. Over the same timeframe, Regional NSW saw employment fall by 0.9%, the labour force shrink by 0.4%, and the unemployment rate increase by 0.5 percentage points. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment projections from May-25 offer additional context on future demand patterns in Bathurst Surrounds. These five and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local workforce mix to model potential trends. Nationally, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though rates vary by sector. Projecting these industry trends onto the occupational profile of Bathurst Surrounds suggests local employment could grow by 5.7% over five years and 12.3% over ten years, representing a basic weighted calculation 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 — 53 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (6,909 at the 2021 Census → 7,101 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.
