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.

Richmond (SA) has an estimated 18,584 residents, up from 17,022 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,562 people, or 9.2%. Growth has averaged 1.1% a year over five years. 224 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Overseas migration accounts for 90.6% of that increase.

Detail
Richmond is estimated by AreaSearch to have reached a population of roughly 18,584 as of Aug 2026. Compared with the 17,022 residents recorded in the 2021 Census, this represents a net expansion of 1,562 people (9.2%). This demographic movement draws upon the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population figure of 18,520 alongside 224 validated new addresses added following the Census. The resulting population density stands at 2,081 persons per square kilometer, outperforming the benchmark across nationwide locations monitored by AreaSearch. Furthermore, Richmond outpaced both the SA3 territory and the wider state (7.7%) with its 9.2% rate of expansion since the 2021 census, establishing itself as an area pacesetter.
Inbound overseas migration served as the core growth engine, generating around 90.6% of recent population additions. Projections published in 2024 by the ABS and Geoscience Australia using 2022 as a base point have been incorporated by AreaSearch for SA2 territories. Where coverage is missing or extends beyond 2032, models rely on 2021-based Regional and LGA age-cohort projections issued by the SA State Government in 2023, applying population growth weighted aggregations from LGA to SA2 geographies. Looking forward, local demographic trends point to above-median growth relative to Australian statistical divisions, with expectations of an additional 2,751 persons by 2041 according to recent annual ERP data, amounting to an overall 16-year increase of 14.5%.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
420 new dwellings have been approved in Richmond (SA) over the past five years, an average of 84 a year. That places the area in the 78th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 5 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 84 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 49% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Residential building authorisations in Richmond have tracked at roughly 84 dwellings each year, totaling 420 residential approvals during the latest 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26). Over this 5 financial years span (between FY-22 and FY-26), the region absorbed an average of 2.5 new residents annually for every completed dwelling, demonstrating firm underlying demand capable of sustaining local values, alongside an average building construction cost of $354,000 per dwelling. Furthermore, the present financial year has captured $114.3 million in commercial project approvals, highlighting vigorous local commercial development. Per-capita building activity in Richmond tracks at roughly 75% of Greater Adelaide levels, ranking the suburb in the 66th percentile nationwide among evaluated locations.
Medium and high-density formats comprise 51.0% of freshly approved dwellings, while detached houses account for 49.0%. This shift toward denser housing choices expands entry-level affordability, offering tailored options for first-time buyers, investors, and downsizing owner-occupiers. This profile marks a clear evolution from the established residential fabric (presently 66.0% houses), adapting to dwindling site availability as well as evolving lifestyle choices and budget constraints. Meanwhile, an approval density of around 194 people per dwelling approval characterizes a maturing market. Projections indicate that Richmond will welcome 2,687 additional inhabitants by 2041, based on the latest AreaSearch quarterly figures. Although current construction rates are keeping in step with these demographic expectations, incoming purchasers could encounter intensifying competition as the local community expands.

11,548 residents of Richmond (SA) are employed, from a labour force of 11,869. Unemployment sits at 2.7%, with participation at 73.4%. 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 24,247, about 130% of the resident population, so the area draws in more workers than it sends out. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Backed by an educated talent pool and notable participation across essential services, Richmond demonstrates solid labor fundamentals, featuring an unemployment rate of only 2.7% and estimated job expansion of 7.2% over the previous twelve months. As of March 2026, employed residents reached 11,548, while joblessness sat 1.1% below the 3.8% registered across Greater Adelaide, alongside an exceptional participation rate of 73.4% versus 66.4% across the broader metropolitan area. Census findings indicated that just 10.7% of local workers performed their duties from home, though potential distortions from Covid-19 restrictions must be acknowledged.
The dominant employment sectors for resident workers are accommodation & food, retail trade, and health care & social assistance. Workforce representation is especially prominent in accommodation & food, where the local concentration stands at 1.4 times regional levels. Conversely, construction represents a smaller share locally, engaging 6.7% of workers against 8.7% regionally. Operating with 1.2 workers for every resident as of the Census, Richmond acts as an active employment center that draws in commuting personnel and accommodates more workplaces than working residents. According to AreaSearch findings based on ABS and SALM releases, the 12 months to March 2026 saw employment climb by 7.2% and the labor force rise by 6.0%, yielding a 1.1 percentage point contraction in the local unemployment rate. In Greater Adelaide over the identical period, employment increased 4.2%, labor supply grew 4.0%, and unemployment edged down 0.2 percentage points. Longer-term hiring prospects can be assessed through national employment modeling published by Jobs and Skills Australia in Mar-26. Projected across five and ten-year horizons, these sectoral forecasts have been applied across the local workforce structure to evaluate future hiring trajectories. While total Australian jobs are anticipated to increase by 6.6% across five years and 13.7% across ten years, industry variations remain substantial. Weighting these projections to Richmond's specific economic makeup indicates potential local job increases of 6.8% over five years and 14.1% over ten years (calculated strictly as an illustrative weighted baseline without integrating local demographic 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 — 224 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (17,022 at the 2021 Census → 18,584 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.
