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 demographic evaluations by AreaSearch, the resident count in Durack - Marlow Lagoon stands at approximately 5,081 as of Aug 2026. Compared to the 4,501 people recorded in the 2021 Census, this indicates an expansion of 580 people (12.9%). This upward trajectory is derived from the ABS estimated resident population figure of 5,073 as of June 2025 alongside 4 validated new addresses identified following the Census. With a population density of 433 persons per square kilometer, the locality offers ample space per resident with capacity for continued expansion. Outperforming the nationwide benchmark of 9.5%, the locality's 12.9% expansion rate since the 2021 census positions it at the forefront of regional growth.
Natural increase served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 55.7% of total demographic gains in recent periods. Projections published by ABS/Geoscience Australia in 2024 (using 2022 as a baseline) are incorporated by AreaSearch for local SA2 modeling. Where specific SA2 coverage is absent, and for long-term estimates beyond 2032 across all geographies, age-cohort growth projections from the ABS Greater Capital Region release (published in 2023, using 2022 data) are utilized. In light of anticipated demographic realignments, the locality is modeled to achieve population growth exceeding the median of areas analyzed by AreaSearch, adding 799 persons to 2041 relative to current annual ERP benchmarks, representing a total 16-year increase of 15.6%.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
73 new dwellings have been approved in Durack - Marlow Lagoon over the past five years, an average of 14 a year. That places the area in the 62nd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 3 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Residential building approvals across Durack - Marlow Lagoon have averaged approximately 14 dwellings per annum, totaling 73 homes authorized across the last 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26). With the arrival of an average of 4.3 new residents per year for each residential unit built over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), local housing production trails demand by a wide margin, placing upward pressure on property prices amid elevated buyer competition, while newly constructed dwellings reflect an average construction value of $462,000. Furthermore, commercial building approvals have reached $1.1 million during this financial year, underscoring an environment heavily oriented toward residential construction.
On a per-capita comparison with Greater Darwin, building consent volumes in Durack - Marlow Lagoon run at roughly three-quarters the regional rate and sit in the 61st percentile across the country, notwithstanding an uptick in construction approvals in recent times. This pace also tracks below national levels, suggesting a mature urban footprint alongside prospective planning bottlenecks. Recent dwelling consents break down into 60.0% detached houses and 40.0% medium and high-density housing, highlighting an increasing focus on medium-density typologies that broaden housing choices across various budget tiers, bridging traditional family residences and compact options. This marks a notable shift from the established housing stock (presently 96.0% houses), driven by limited land availability and evolving consumer preferences around affordability and lifestyle. With around 278 people per dwelling approval, development potential remains evident. Over the period to 2041, Durack - Marlow Lagoon is projected to see an influx of 791 residents (based on the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate). While ongoing residential building activity aligns with forecast requirements, buyers are likely to encounter heightened competition as the local population increases.

3,033 residents of Durack - Marlow Lagoon are employed, from a labour force of 3,080. Unemployment sits at 1.5%, with participation at 79.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.0% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth, so in an area growing as fast as this one it understates the likely rise in local jobs. The working-day population is estimated at 4,409, about 87% 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
A well-qualified resident workforce characterizes Durack - Marlow Lagoon, anchored by substantial representation across essential service sectors, an unemployment rate of merely 1.5%, and annual estimated employment growth of 0.6%. Employed residents numbered 3,033 as of March 2026, while the jobless rate remains 1.9% under the Greater Darwin benchmark of 3.5%, accompanied by a strong labour force participation rate of 79.0% (outstripping the 72.9% recorded for Greater Darwin). Census records indicate that only 5.0% of local workers operated from home, though the influence of Covid-19 lockdown measures should be kept in mind.
The primary employment sectors for local workers are public administration & safety, construction, and health care & social assistance. Building and construction features heavily, with local resident participation running at 1.3 times the wider regional benchmark. In contrast, health care & social assistance engages a smaller proportion locally at 10.4%, versus 14.2% across the broader region. Discrepancies between local working population figures and resident worker totals from the Census point to a limited volume of jobs situated directly within the area. AreaSearch evaluated SALM and ABS figures to show that employment rose by 0.6% and the labour force grew by 0.8% in the period ending March 2026, which led to an unemployment increase of 0.2 percentage points. Greater Darwin experienced employment growth of 0.4% and labour force expansion of 0.8% during the same timeframe, resulting in a 0.3 percentage point rise in unemployment. Jobs and Skills Australia provides national employment forecasts from Mar-26 that can help anticipate future demand in Durack - Marlow Lagoon. These projections span five and ten year intervals and have been aligned with the local employment structure to project growth trends. Nationally, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though sectoral growth varies considerably. When these industry specific estimates are applied to Durack - Marlow Lagoon's job composition, local employment is expected to grow by 6.0% over five years and 12.6% over ten years, with the caveat that this simple weighting exercise is illustrative only and excludes localized 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 — 4 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (4,501 at the 2021 Census → 5,081 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.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (701041038). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
