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.

Hurstville - North has an estimated 12,828 residents, up from 12,109 at the 2021 Census — a change of 719 people, or 5.9%. Overseas migration accounts for 100.0% of that increase. That puts 5,323 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 research conducted by AreaSearch, the resident count of Hurstville - North stands at roughly 12,828 as of Aug 2026. Relative to the 2021 Census tally of 12,109 people, this represents a net expansion of 719 people (5.9%). This demographic shift is derived by combining the ABS estimated resident population figure of 12,816 recorded as of June 2025 with 33 validated new addresses registered post-Census. With 5,322 persons per square kilometer, the locality ranks in the top 10% nationwide for population density, underlining the intense demand for local real estate.
The community's 5.9% expansion post-Census trails the broader SA4 region (6.6%) by just 0.7 percentage points, highlighting solid underlying growth. Inbound international migration served as the primary catalyst for these gains, functioning as virtually the sole source of population expansion recently. Projections compiled by the ABS/Geoscience Australia (issued in 2024 utilizing 2022 as the base period) are applied by AreaSearch across SA2 locations, supplemented by NSW State Government SA2 modeling (released in 2022 using 2021 as the baseline) where necessary. For the timeframe spanning 2032 to 2041, cohort-specific age trajectories from these datasets are applied across all territories. Looking forward, local demographic expansion is expected to track slightly below the national median for statistical divisions, adding 797 persons by 2041 based on the most recent annual ERP figures, translating to an overall rise of 6.1% over the 16 years.

7,168 residents of Hurstville - North are employed, from a labour force of 7,437. Unemployment sits at 3.6%, with participation at 66.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.7% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 10,011, about 78% 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 labor market in Hurstville - North is characterized by a highly skilled population with a strong presence in professional services, a low unemployment rate of 3.6%, and an estimated employment growth of 3.5% over the last twelve months. As of March 2026, the area had 7,168 residents employed, and its unemployment rate stood at 0.5% lower than the Greater Sydney average of 4.1%. Workforce participation in Hurstville - North was slightly below the regional norm, recorded at 66.5% versus 68.9% in Greater Sydney. Census data indicates that a significant 39.8% of residents worked from home, although this figure should be viewed in the context of pandemic-related restrictions.
Healthcare & social assistance, retail trade, along with professional & technical services form the core employment pillars for resident workers. The local concentration in retail trade is particularly notable, exceeding regional benchmarks by 1.3 times. Conversely, professional & technical occupations are less prevalent locally, accounting for 9.1% of the workforce in Hurstville - North against 11.5% across Greater Sydney. A comparison between the resident headcount and local workplace tallies indicates that this predominantly suburban enclave provides limited employment positions within its own boundaries. Analysis of SALM and ABS data by AreaSearch indicates that over the past twelve months, employment rose by 3.5% while the labour force grew by the same 3.5%, leaving unemployment virtually stable. In contrast, Greater Sydney experienced employment growth of 1.9%, labour force growth of 1.9%, and a slight decline in unemployment. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from Mar-26 provide additional context for potential future demand in Hurstville - North. These projections, which span five and ten-year periods, have been aligned with the local employment profile to estimate growth trends. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, expansion rates vary considerably across industry sectors. When these sector-specific forecasts are applied to Hurstville - North's employment composition, local employment is expected to rise by 6.7% over five years and 13.7% over ten years (please note this is a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not take into account localised population projections).

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 — 33 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (12,109 at the 2021 Census → 12,828 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 Aug 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.
