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 Coromandel Valley

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

Coromandel Valley has an estimated 4,655 residents, up from 4,469 at the 2021 Census — a change of 186 people, or 4.2%. Growth has averaged 0.8% a year over five years. That puts 1,053 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 by AreaSearch, the resident count of Coromandel Valley stands at approximately 4,655 as of Aug 2026. This represents an expansion of 186 people (4.2%) compared to the 4,469 people recorded in the 2021 Census. Such demographic movement is determined using the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population count of 4,655 alongside 3 validated new addresses identified following the Census. This population total yields a density of 1,053 persons per square kilometer, aligning closely with typical benchmarks evaluated across AreaSearch locations. Achieving 4.2% growth post-census places the locality within 1.8 percentage points of the wider SA3 area (6.0%), highlighting solid growth characteristics.

The primary catalyst for local population expansion has been overseas migration, accounting for roughly 59.6% of total net population additions in recent times. Population modeling across SA2 boundaries incorporates ABS/Geoscience Australia projections published in 2024 using 2022 as the base year. For post-2032 timeframes or locations lacking this coverage, SA State Government Regional/LGA age-cohort projections from 2023 (utilising 2021 data) are integrated through a weighted aggregation method adjusting LGA figures to the SA2 level. Looking ahead, Coromandel Valley is projected to experience demographic growth slightly under the national statistical area median, gaining 472 persons to 2041 according to the most recent annual ERP figures, which equates to a 10.1% overall rise across the 16 years.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Coromandel Valley

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

21 new dwellings have been approved in Coromandel Valley over the past five years, an average of 4 a year. That is 0.9 approvals per 1,000 residents. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.

Detail

Residential building approvals in Coromandel Valley have averaged approximately 4 properties annually, totaling 21 homes sanctioned over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26). With an influx of 8.6 new residents per year per constructed dwelling over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), local housing additions trail demographic needs by a wide margin, generating upward pressure on property values and heightening buyer demand, while newly built homes carry an average value of $394,000. Furthermore, $2.4 million in commercial building permits was recorded this financial year, underscoring modest commercial development investment.

Relative to Greater Adelaide, building volume in Coromandel Valley is remarkably subdued (82.0% below regional average per person). This constrained pipeline of fresh stock tends to reinforce demand and bolster valuations for existing real estate. Such output is similarly below national figures, reflecting an established urban fabric alongside potential zoning and planning boundaries. Furthermore, recent residential building activity has consisted entirely of detached houses, maintaining the suburban ambiance and appealing to purchasers seeking expansive space. The locality records approximately 1353 people per dwelling approval, indicative of a mature market. According to the latest quarterly calculations from AreaSearch, Coromandel Valley is slated to add 472 residents by 2041. If residential construction continues at its present pace, dwelling creation may fall short of demographic expansion, likely intensifying purchasing competition and sustaining upward property valuation trends.

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 — 3 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (4,469 at the 2021 Census → 4,655 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 (403041076). 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 Coromandel Valley 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 Coromandel Valley 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 Coromandel Valley 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 (Aug 2026), property sales & rents (Sep 2026), infrastructure projects (May 2026) and services & amenities (Sep 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to Aug 2026), age profile (to Aug 2026), employment (to Mar 2026), income (to FY 2023), education (to Sep 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.
