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 the analysis by AreaSearch, the population of Evans Head stands at approximately 6,070 in May 2026. This represents a growth of 427 individuals (7.6%) from the 5,643 residents recorded in the 2021 Census. The evaluation relies on the ABS estimate of 6,062 residents in June 2025 alongside 355 validated new addresses identified after the Census. The density of the area is calculated at 11.2 persons per square kilometer, which indicates a low-density living environment. The growth rate of 7.6% since the 2021 Census outpaced both the SA4 region (3.7%) and the Rest of NSW, positioning Evans Head as a leading growth zone.
This demographic expansion was primarily fueled by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 69.5% of the total population increase, though positive contributions were also observed from natural growth and overseas migration. Projections from ABS and Geoscience Australia, issued in 2024 with a 2022 baseline, are utilized for each SA2 region. For locations lacking this coverage, projections from the NSW State Government released in 2022 with a 2021 baseline are applied. Age bracket growth trends derived from these sources are extended to span the years 2032 to 2041. Future expectations point to population gains exceeding the regional national median, with the locality projected to add 860 residents by 2041 when measured against current annual ERP figures, representing a 14.0% total increase over the 16-year timeframe.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
90 new dwellings have been approved in Evans Head over the past five years, an average of 18 a year. That places the area in the 60th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 3 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 18, 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
Residential approvals in Evans Head average approximately 18 properties annually, representing a total of 90 dwellings over the last 5 financial years. In FY-26 to date, 17 approvals have been logged. The ratio of 5.5 additional residents per completed home between FY-21 and FY-25 highlights a market where demand outstrips new supply, a trend that typically drives up property prices and heightens buyer competition. Meanwhile, new builds carry an average construction value of $409,000, which sits slightly above the regional standard and indicates an emphasis on premium builds. Commercial approvals for this financial year stand at $7.6 million, pointing to a quiet commercial development sector.
Compared to the Rest of NSW, the volume of building activity per capita in Evans Head is roughly half, placing the area in the 46th percentile nationwide. This suggests limited purchasing choices for buyers and reinforces demand for existing properties. Construction rates also sit below the national benchmark, reflecting the established status of the suburb and potential planning constraints. Detached houses comprise 86.0% of the new builds, while attached properties make up 14.0%, maintaining the low-density character of the area with an emphasis on stand-alone homes that appeal to buyers seeking space. Developers are building detached dwellings at a higher rate than the baseline profile (71.0% at the Census), showing sustained interest in family residences despite broader densification patterns. The ratio of 372 people per dwelling approval highlights a low-volume building environment. Based on the most recent quarterly estimates from AreaSearch, Evans Head is projected to add 852 residents by 2041. If construction volumes remain unchanged, the pace of housing supply is likely to fall behind this population expansion, which could heighten competition among buyers and support price growth.

2,654 residents of Evans Head are employed, from a labour force of 2,750. Unemployment sits at 3.5%, with participation at 52.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 5,432, about 89% 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 Evans Head is characterized by skilled individuals with solid representation in critical service sectors, an unemployment rate of just 3.5%, and employment growth estimated at 3.1% over the past year. In March 2026, working residents numbered 2,654, with the unemployment rate tracking 0.6% below the Regional NSW average of 4.1%. Workforce participation is notably lower, standing at 52.6% compared to 60.6% in Regional NSW. Census data indicates that only 13.4% of the working population operated from home, though this figure may have been influenced by COVID-19 restrictions.
The primary employment fields for residents are health care & social assistance, education & training, and construction. The concentration of jobs in education & training is particularly high, reaching 1.3 times the regional average. Conversely, public administration & safety is underrepresented, employing 5.4% of local workers compared to 7.5% in Regional NSW. The relationship between the resident workforce and locally available jobs suggests that local employment opportunities are somewhat limited. An analysis of SALM and ABS figures indicates that during the 12 months ending March 2026, employment expanded by 3.1% while the labor force grew by 4.0%, leading to a 0.9 percentage point rise in the unemployment rate. In contrast, Regional NSW experienced a 0.9% drop in employment, a 0.4% contraction in the labor force, and a 0.5 percentage point increase in unemployment. Future local employment demand can be contextualized using national projections released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25. These five and ten-year forecasts have been aligned with local industry profiles to project potential employment pathways. Nationally, employment is expected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though trends vary by sector. Applying these trends to the local industry distribution suggests that employment among Evans Head residents could rise by 6.3% over five years and 13.2% over ten years, representing a simple weighted extrapolation that does not account for localized population changes.

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 — 355 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (5,643 at the 2021 Census → 6,070 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.
