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.

Detail

According to the analysis by AreaSearch, the population of Ulladulla is estimated at 17,740 in May 2026. This represents an expansion of 714 individuals (4.2%) compared to the 17,026 residents recorded in the 2021 Census. The change is calculated using the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population of 17,568 and 319 validated new addresses registered after the Census. This population size results in a density of 379 persons per square kilometer, indicating low density and potential space for future growth. The 4.2% growth rate of Ulladulla since the 2021 census was higher than the 3.1% registered in the SA4 region, as well as the SA3 area, establishing it as a local growth leader.

The primary driver of this population growth was interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 52.8% of the total population increases in recent times. AreaSearch utilizes the projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for each SA2 region, which were published in 2024 using 2022 as the base year. For SA2 regions lacking this dataset, AreaSearch uses the SA2 projections from the NSW State Government, published in 2022 using 2021 as the baseline. The growth rates by age bracket from these combined datasets are also applied to all areas for the period 2032 to 2041. Based on these projected demographic trends, a large population gain is anticipated, placing the area in the top tier of national non-metropolitan regions, with a projected increase of 4,920 residents by 2041 relative to the latest annual ERP statistics, representing a total rise of 26.8% over the 16 years.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Ulladulla

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

702 new dwellings have been approved in Ulladulla over the past five years, an average of 140 a year. That places the area in the 67th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 8 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 89 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 62% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 109, 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

On average, Ulladulla has recorded approximately 140 new residential approvals per year, totaling 702 home approvals over the last 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) and 100 during FY-26 so far. With an average of 1.2 new residents moving in per new home built over the last 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), the property market appears well-balanced between supply and demand, promoting steady conditions, with new homes constructed at an average value of $332,000. Furthermore, $32.6 million in commercial construction approvals has been registered during the current financial year, indicating robust local business investment.

In comparison to the Rest of NSW, Ulladulla shows slightly higher building activity (20.0% higher than the regional average per capita over the 5 year period), which helps maintain options for buyers while supporting existing home values, despite a deceleration in construction activity lately. Newly approved housing consists of 62.0% detached houses and 38.0% attached dwellings, indicating an increasing supply of medium-density choices that provide options across different price ranges, from standard family homes to more budget-friendly compact dwellings. This represents a notable shift from the current housing composition (which is currently 87.0% houses), reflecting a decrease in available development land and responding to changing lifestyle preferences and budget constraints. Having approximately 238 residents for every dwelling approval, Ulladulla exhibits the features of a low density region. Projecting forward, Ulladulla is anticipated to add 4,747 residents by 2041 (starting from the most recent quarterly estimate by AreaSearch). Housing development is progressing at a reasonable rate relative to this projected growth, though home buyers could experience heightened competition as the population size increases.

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 — 319 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (17,026 at the 2021 Census → 17,740 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 (114011282). 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 Ulladulla 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 Ulladulla 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 Ulladulla 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 (Jul 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.
