Statistical Area (SA2) Boundary Analysis

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.

DemographicsPopulation Growth in Green Valley

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

Green Valley has an estimated 12,820 residents, down from 12,919 at the 2021 Census. That puts 3,994 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 investigations by AreaSearch, the resident count for Green Valley stands at approximately 12,820 as of May 2026. This marks a reduction of 99 individuals (0.8%) from the 12,919 residents recorded in the 2021 Census. The calculation is derived using the ABS estimated resident population of 12,813 in June 2025 combined with 17 validated new addresses registered after the Census. This population size results in a density of 3,993 persons per square kilometer, placing the locality within the highest 10% of areas evaluated across the nation by AreaSearch, which highlights the intense demand for local land resources.

Demographic expansion in this locality was primarily supported by international migration, which accounted for roughly 67.0% of the overall population increases in recent times. Projections established by the ABS and Geoscience Australia, published in 2024 using 2022 as the baseline, are utilized by AreaSearch for each SA2 region. For locations lacking this coverage, projections from the NSW State Government released in 2022 with a 2021 baseline are applied. The growth trends across age categories from these datasets are projected forward for the years 2032 to 2041. Looking at upcoming demographic shifts, these calculations point to a downward trend in total numbers, with the local cohort projected to decrease by 204 persons by 2041. Despite this overall drop, expansion is predicted for particular age groups, most notably the 75 to 84 cohort, which is expected to grow by 599 people.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Green Valley

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

104 new dwellings have been approved in Green Valley over the past five years, an average of 20 a year. That is 1.6 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 28, running ahead of 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

Approximately 20 new residential dwellings have been approved each year in Green Valley, amounting to 104 dwellings over the previous 5 financial years. Thus far in FY-26, 26 approvals have been documented. Because the local population has been declining, this incoming housing supply has likely satisfied local demand, providing prospective buyers with adequate options, while construction costs average $222,000 per home—a figure below the broader regional standard—pointing to more budget-friendly purchasing options. Furthermore, commercial approvals totaling $1.1 million have been logged during the current financial year, representing low levels of commercial development.

In comparison to Greater Sydney, Green Valley exhibits very quiet building activity, sitting 91.0% below regional average per person. This restricted volume of new construction typically helps maintain demand and supports the market value of existing homes. Local building figures are also lower than the national average, indicating a highly mature real estate market that may face geographical or regulatory development limits. The composition of new approvals is dominated by standalone homes at 88.0%, with attached dwellings making up the remaining 12.0%, thereby preserving the established suburban layout focused on spacious residences for family households. The ratio of roughly 661 people for every residential approval highlights the mature status of the Green Valley property market. Given that the total population is predicted to either hold steady or decline, Green Valley is likely to experience less strain on its housing supply, which could present advantageous conditions for prospective buyers.

Jobs & IndustryEmployment Trends in Green Valley

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

6,341 residents of Green Valley are employed, from a labour force of 6,682. Unemployment sits at 5.1%, with participation at 62.9%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 10,234, about 80% 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

Green Valley is home to a capable workforce with strong representation in industrial and manufacturing sectors, showing an unemployment rate of 5.1% alongside a 5.0% rise in estimated employment over the preceding year. As of March 2026, employed residents numbered 6,341, while the local unemployment rate sits 1.0% above the 4.1% recorded for Greater Sydney. Additionally, the labor participation rate of 62.9% is considerably lower than the Greater Sydney average of 69.1%. Census data indicates that 29.8% of employed locals performed their duties from home, though this figure may have been influenced by pandemic-related movement restrictions.

The primary sectors employing local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and manufacturing. The concentration of manufacturing workers in this area is particularly high, reaching 2.0 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical services account for only 4.7% of the local workforce, contrasting with the 11.5% average for Greater Sydney. The imbalance between the working population counted in the Census and the resident population suggests this highly residential suburb offers few employment options within its borders. AreaSearch evaluations of SALM and ABS statistics indicate that during the year leading to March 2026, local employment numbers expanded by 5.0% and the active labor force grew by 5.0%, while the rate of unemployment showed no real shift. Over the same timeframe, Greater Sydney saw employment and labor force metrics grow by 1.9%, with a minor decrease in unemployment. Projections from Jobs and Skills Australia released in May-25 offer additional perspective on potential employment trends for Green Valley. These five-year and ten-year national estimates have been applied to the local workforce structure to model future employment paths. Locally, applying these industry-weighted rates indicates that employment could rise by 5.9% over five years and 12.7% over ten years, though these figures are calculated purely by weighting the local job mix against national sectoral forecasts and do not account for local population changes. This contrasts with national forecasts pointing to a 6.6% employment expansion over five years and a 13.7% expansion over ten years.

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 — 17 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (12,919 at the 2021 Census → 12,820 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.

Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (127011594). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.

Common questions about this page

Why can the Green Valley SA2 boundary differ from the suburb boundary?
This page uses ABS Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2) boundaries for statistical reporting (e.g., census and ERP). SA2 areas can differ materially from Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, even when they share similar names, because they are defined for different purposes and often use different geographic boundaries.
Where does the data on this Green Valley page come from?
AreaSearch compiles this page from official and industry sources — including ABS, Geoscience Australia, Valuer General, Provider directories, DEWR, JSA, State Transport Departments and ACARA — then aggregates them to the boundary shown and calculates the rankings, growth rates and benchmarks itself. Property sales come from the state valuation authority, rents from state rental bond lodgements, development applications from council and state planning portals, school data from ACARA, and public transport from state transport departments.
Is the Green Valley data on this page just from the 2021 Census?
No. Most of this page is maintained well beyond the Census. Sourced entirely from current releases: development & approvals (Jun 2026), property sales & rents (Aug 2026), infrastructure projects (May 2026) and services & amenities (Jul 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to May 2026), age profile (to May 2026), employment (to Mar 2026), income (to FY 2023), education (to Aug 2026), transport (to Jul 2026) and health (to 2024). Population and age cohorts in particular are re-based to the latest ABS Estimated Resident Population rather than left at 2021 counts. Only housing, households and cultural diversity remain wholly Census-based, because no more current small-area dataset exists for those measures.
