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.

Forster has an estimated 15,047 residents, up from 14,709 at the 2021 Census — a change of 338 people, or 2.3%. 575 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. That puts 444 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 conducted by AreaSearch, the population of Forster stands at approximately 15,047 as of May 2026. This indicates a growth of 338 residents (2.3%) from the 14,709 individuals recorded during the 2021 Census. This calculation is derived from the ABS estimated resident population of 15,043 in June 2025 alongside 575 validated new addresses identified since the Census. Such a population size results in a density of 444 persons per square kilometer, which suggests a low-density environment with space for potential future projects. The post-census expansion rate of 2.3% is within 0.6 percentage points of the broader SA3 region (2.9%), reflecting solid local demand.
The primary driver of this growth was interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 80.6% of the population increase in recent times. AreaSearch incorporates SA2 level population projections published by the ABS and Geoscience Australia in 2024, using 2022 as the baseline. For areas not covered in this dataset, projections from the NSW State Government released in 2022 with a 2021 baseline are applied. Demographic growth projections by age cohort from these sources are extended to span the years 2032 to 2041. Based on these anticipated demographic patterns, the area is projected to experience growth slightly below the median rate for non-metropolitan regions across the country, increasing by 1,647 people by 2041 relative to the most recent annual ERP statistics, representing an overall expansion of 10.9% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
588 new dwellings have been approved in Forster over the past five years, an average of 117 a year. That places the area in the 72nd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 8 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 107 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 60% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 49, 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 117 residential building approvals have been granted annually in Forster, representing 588 new dwellings over the last 5 financial years. In the current financial year of FY-26, there have been 45 approvals recorded so far. With an average of 0.5 new residents per year added for each completed dwelling over the past 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), the pace of construction is meeting or exceeding demand, providing buyers with diverse options and creating potential for population growth to surpass current forecasts, while the average construction cost of these new homes is $416,000, slightly higher than the regional benchmark, indicating a focus on higher-quality builds.
Furthermore, commercial development approvals have reached $21.4 million in the current financial year, demonstrating ongoing commercial investment. Forster displays relatively high construction activity when compared to the Rest of NSW, tracking 32.0% above the regional average per capita over the 5 year period, which maintains choice for buyers and helps anchor existing home values. The mix of new construction consists of 60.0% standalone houses and 40.0% attached dwellings, with a rising share of townhouses and apartments offering choices across various price levels, ranging from larger family residences to smaller, more affordable options. There are roughly 100 people for each dwelling approval, reflecting a low-density market environment. Long-term projections indicate that Forster will add 1,643 residents by 2041, based on the latest quarterly calculations from AreaSearch. If current building trends persist, the supply of new housing is expected to easily accommodate this demand, supporting stable conditions for purchasers and potentially allowing population growth to outpace current forecasts.

5,639 residents of Forster are employed, from a labour force of 5,929. Unemployment sits at 4.9%, with participation at 45.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. 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 in Forster is balanced between white-collar and blue-collar occupations, with a strong presence in essential services sectors and a local unemployment rate of 4.9%. In March 2026, the employed resident count reached 5,639, with the unemployment rate tracking 0.8% higher than the Regional NSW benchmark of 4.1%, while workforce participation is low at 45.4% compared to 60.6% for Regional NSW. Data from the Census indicates that a low 11.2% of the workforce worked from home, though this figure was likely influenced by COVID-19 restrictions. The primary employment sectors for local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and accommodation & food.
The region displays a high concentration of jobs in health care & social assistance, with its employment share reaching 1.3 times the regional average. In contrast, agriculture, forestry & fishing is underrepresented at 1.6% of the workforce compared to the regional average of 5.3%. A comparison between the Census working population and resident population suggests limited local employment opportunities within the immediate area. An analysis of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch shows that over the 12-month period, the local labour force shrank by 3.3% while employment fell by 4.0%, leading to a 0.7 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. This compares to Regional NSW, where employment declined by 0.9%, the labour force contracted by 0.4%, and the unemployment rate rose by 0.5 percentage points. National employment projections released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 offer additional context on future demand trends for Forster. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce composition to estimate growth. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rates of change vary widely by industry. Applying these sectoral growth rates to the local industry mix suggests employment in Forster could grow by 6.9% over five years and 14.3% over ten years, though this is a basic weighted calculation for demonstration purposes and does not incorporate 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 — 575 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (14,709 at the 2021 Census → 15,047 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.
