Jordan Springs - Llandilo

Jordan Springs - Llandilo lies within the top quartile of areas nationally for population growth performance according to AreaSearch analysis of recent, and medium to long-term trends

Based on AreaSearch's analysis, Jordan Springs - Llandilo's population is around 15,625 as of Feb 2026. This reflects an increase of 2,237 people (16.7%) since the 2021 Census, which reported a population of 13,388 people.

This population level equates to a density ratio of 690 persons per square kilometer, which is relatively in line with averages seen across locations assessed by AreaSearch. Jordan Springs - Llandilo's 16.7% growth since the 2021 census exceeded the SA4 region (6.5%) and the state, marking it as a growth leader in the region. Population growth for the area was primarily driven by natural growth, which contributed approximately 43.3% of overall population gains during recent periods, although all drivers, including interstate and overseas migration, were positive factors.

AreaSearch is adopting ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, as released in 2024 with 2022 as the base year. For any SA2 areas not covered by this data, AreaSearch is utilising the NSW State Government's SA2 level projections, as released in 2022 with 2021 as the base year. Growth rates by age group from these aggregations are also applied to all areas for years 2032 to 2041. As we examine future population trends, a population increase just below the median of national areas is expected, with the area expected to expand by 2,270 persons by 2041 based on the latest annual ERP population numbers, reflecting an increase of 12.4% in total over the 17 years.

AreaSearch assessment of residential approval activity sees Jordan Springs - Llandilo among the top 30% of areas assessed nationwide

Jordan Springs - Llandilo has experienced around 95 dwellings receiving development approval each year, totalling 476 homes over the past 5 financial years. So far in FY-26, 24 approvals have been recorded. Given an average of 8.5 new residents per year arriving per dwelling constructed over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), supply is substantially lagging demand, which generally means heightened buyer competition, leading to pricing pressures, while new homes are being built at an average value of $283,000—below regional norms—reflecting more affordable housing options for purchasers. Also, $9.6 million in commercial approvals have been registered this financial year, demonstrating moderate levels of commercial development.

When measured against Greater Sydney, Jordan Springs - Llandilo has slightly more development (25.0% above regional average per person over the 5 year period), balancing buyer choice with support for current property values, though building activity has slowed in recent years. Recent construction comprises 32.0% standalone homes and 68.0% townhouses or apartments. This trend toward denser development provides accessible entry options and appeals to downsizers, investors, and entry-level buyers. This represents a notable shift from the area's existing housing (currently 91.0% houses), indicating decreasing availability of developable sites and reflecting changing lifestyles and the need for more diverse, affordable housing options. The estimated count of 832 people in the area per dwelling approval reflects its quiet, low activity development environment.

Future projections show Jordan Springs - Llandilo adding 1,931 residents by 2041 (from the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate). With current construction levels, housing supply should adequately meet demand, creating favourable conditions for buyers while potentially enabling growth that exceeds current forecasts.
