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.

Sales Detail
Wyoming has an estimated 11,334 residents, down from 11,423 at the 2021 Census. The population has thinned by an average 0.5% a year over five years, slower than 95% of areas nationally. That puts 1,353 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 by AreaSearch, the population of Wyoming stands at approximately 11,334 as of May 2026. This represents a reduction of 89 residents (0.8%) compared to the 11,423 individuals recorded during the 2021 Census. This population shift is calculated utilizing the ABS estimated resident population of 11,329 from June 2025 alongside 5 validated new addresses registered after the Census. The current population size results in a density of 1,352 persons per square kilometer, which exceeds the typical density found in other national areas evaluated by AreaSearch. The primary contributor to population increases in recent times was overseas migration, which served as the sole source of population growth.
AreaSearch incorporates SA2 projections published in 2024 by the ABS and Geoscience Australia, which utilize 2022 as their baseline year. For any SA2 regions excluded from this dataset, projections from the NSW State Government released in 2022 with a 2021 baseline are applied. The growth trends by age cohort derived from these datasets are projected forward for the years 2032 to 2041. Based on these demographic models, the overall population is projected to drop by 230 people by 2041. Conversely, expansion is projected in certain age brackets, particularly the group aged 85 and over, which is expected to rise by 324 individuals. Further statistics can be found in the age section.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
39 new dwellings have been approved in Wyoming over the past five years, an average of 7 a year. That is 0.7 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 7, 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
Wyoming has averaged approximately 7 residential building approvals annually, resulting in a total of 39 new dwellings over the last 5 financial years. There have been 7 approvals recorded so far in FY-26. Because the population has decreased lately, the volume of housing supply has kept pace with demand to support a balanced market with sufficient choices for purchasers, while the average construction cost for new dwellings sits at $216,000—a figure below the broader regional average—pointing to relatively affordable building opportunities. Additionally, commercial development has been quiet, with $2.2 million in commercial approvals registered during this financial year.
Compared to the broader Greater Sydney region, development activity in Wyoming is very low, tracking 82.0% below the regional per capita average. This limited addition of new housing stock generally helps support demand and property values for the existing housing supply. The rate also sits below the national benchmark, highlighting the established status of the locality and potentially indicating planning constraints. Recent building activity is composed of 86.0% detached houses and 14.0% multi-dwelling options like townhouses or apartments, sustaining the suburban character of the area which tends to draw buyers looking for land. With approximately 1754 residents for every new dwelling approved, the market shows a high degree of maturity. Faced with projections of a steady or shrinking population, Wyoming is likely to experience reduced pressure on its housing market, which could benefit prospective purchasers.

5,431 residents of Wyoming are employed, from a labour force of 5,682. Unemployment sits at 4.4%, with participation at 61.3%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 9,736, about 86% 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 local workforce is characterized by skilled workers, with strong representation in essential service fields, a jobless rate of 4.4%, and an estimated annual job growth rate of 3.5%. In March 2026, employed residents numbered 5,431, while the local unemployment rate was 0.3% higher than the 4.1% recorded across Greater Sydney, and the labor participation rate of 61.3% was lower than the Greater Sydney average of 69.1%. Census data indicates that 30.5% of the local workforce worked from home, although these figures may have been influenced by Covid-19 restrictions. The primary sectors employing local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction.
There is a notable concentration in health care & social assistance, where the local employment proportion is 1.4 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical services are underrepresented, accounting for 6.5% of local employment compared to 11.5% regionally. The data comparing local employment numbers with resident numbers suggests this residential locality offers fewer jobs within its borders. Based on analysis of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch, the 12 months leading up to March 2026 saw employment expand by 3.5% and the labor force grow by 3.4%, leaving the unemployment rate virtually unchanged. Over the same timeframe, Greater Sydney experienced employment growth of 1.9%, labor force growth of 1.9%, and a slight drop in unemployment. National employment projections from May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia provide further context on expected future labor demand in Wyoming. These five-year and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local workforce structure to model potential employment shifts. Nationally, jobs are expected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though rates vary by sector. Projecting these industry trends onto the local employment distribution suggests Wyoming could see job numbers grow by 6.8% over five years and 14.1% over ten years, representing a basic weighted calculation for illustration that does not incorporate local population forecasts.
Frequently Asked Questions - Employment
Median household income in Wyoming is $1,430 a week (about $74,000 a year), with median personal income at $697 a week.

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 — 5 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (11,423 at the 2021 Census → 11,334 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.
