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.

DemographicsPopulation Growth in Wanguri

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

Wanguri has an estimated 1,940 residents, up from 1,836 at the 2021 Census — a change of 104 people, or 5.7%. Overseas migration accounts for 70.9% of that increase. That puts 2,180 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 population of Wanguri is approximately 1,940 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 104 residents (5.7%) compared to the 1,836 individuals recorded in the 2021 Census. This population shift is calculated utilizing the ABS estimated resident population of 1,940 from June 2025 alongside address verification processes since the Census. Such a population size results in a density of 2,179 persons per square kilometer, a figure that exceeds the typical density found in other national locations studied by AreaSearch. The primary driver of this population growth was overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 70.9% of the total population gains in recent times.

AreaSearch utilizes the 2024 population projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for SA2 locations, which use 2022 as their baseline year. In instances where SA2 areas lack this data, or to project growth beyond 2032, AreaSearch applies age cohort growth rates to each district based on the ABS Greater Capital Region projections from 2023, which are grounded in 2022 data. Looking forward, the district is projected to experience population growth that exceeds the national median, with an expected increase of 317 residents by 2041 relative to the most recent annual ERP statistics, representing a total rise of 16.3% over the 16-year timeframe.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Wanguri

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

Detail

Wanguri typically sees about 1 residential building approval each year, with 6 homes approved during the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25) and 0 approvals recorded in FY-26 to date. Given that the past 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25) averaged 3.2 new residents for each completed dwelling, demand is outstripping new supply, which commonly drives up property values and heightens buyer rivalry, with new residential projects averaging an estimated construction cost of $339,000. Additionally, commercial approvals reached $350,000 during the current financial year, highlighting that the neighborhood remains predominantly residential.

Wanguri exhibits considerably lower construction volume than Greater Darwin, sitting 66.0% below the regional average per capita. This limited supply of new dwellings generally supports the value and demand for established homes, even though building volumes have risen lately. This rate is also below the national average, indicating a mature market and potential constraints on new land release. Furthermore, all recent construction has consisted of detached houses, preserving the classic suburban feel of the neighborhood and its focus on family-oriented properties. Having roughly 790 residents for every residential approval indicates that Wanguri is a highly established housing market. Based on the most recent quarterly projections from AreaSearch, Wanguri is forecast to add 317 residents by 2041. If current building rates do not accelerate, the supply of new housing is likely to fall behind this population expansion, potentially worsening buyer competition and supporting upward pressure on values.

The major employment industries for local residents are health care & social assistance, public administration & safety, and education & training. The district shows a strong concentration in health care & social assistance, with its employment share reaching 1.2 times the wider regional proportion. Conversely, public administration & safety is underrepresented, employing 14.3% of the local workforce compared to 19.5% across the region.

In contrast, Greater Darwin experienced a 0.4% rise in employment alongside a 0.8% expansion in the labour force, with unemployment increasing by 0.3 percentage points. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from May-25 provide additional context for potential future demand within Wanguri. These projections, which span five and ten-year periods, have been aligned with the local employment profile to estimate growth patterns. Although national employment is expected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, sectoral growth rates vary considerably. When applied to Wanguri's employment mix, these industry-specific projections imply that local employment should rise by 6.7% over five years and 13.8% 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. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (1,836 at the 2021 Census → 1,940 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 (701021029). 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 Wanguri 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 Wanguri 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 Wanguri 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 (May 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.
