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 research from AreaSearch, the resident count in Uraidla - Summertown stands at approximately 6,508 as of Aug 2026. This represents an expansion of 466 people (7.7%) compared to the 2021 Census, when 6,042 people were recorded. This adjustment is derived from the ABS estimated resident population figure of 6,484 recorded as of June 2025 alongside 111 validated new addresses identified following the Census. With this resident base, the population density settles at 54 persons per square kilometer, ensuring considerable personal space for inhabitants. Across the preceding ten years, Uraidla - Summertown exhibited steady expansion via a 1.6% compound annual growth rate, exceeding the broader SA4 region.
Inbound overseas migration served as the primary catalyst for demographic expansion, contributing roughly 42.2% of total population gains in recent times, supplemented by positive inflows from interstate migration as well as natural growth. Projections compiled by AreaSearch incorporate ABS/Geoscience Australia data released in 2024 using 2022 as the base point. For SA2 territories excluded from that release, or for timelines extending post-2032, figures rely on the 2023 SA State Government Regional/LGA age category projections (grounded in 2021 benchmarks), adjusted through weighted aggregate modeling from LGA to SA2 divisions. Evaluating these anticipated shifts, the locality is slated for population growth above the national statistical area median, gaining an expected 1,094 persons to 2041 under prevailing annual ERP population metrics, which equates to an overall rise of 16.4% across the 16 years.

Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.6% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 5,229, about 80% 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 in Uraidla - Summertown is characterized by strong educational credentials and solid representation across essential services, accompanied by an unemployment rate of merely 1.7% and a 5.5% expansion in employment over the preceding year. As of March 2026, employed residents numbered 3,777, with local unemployment sitting 2.1% below the 3.8% recorded across Greater Adelaide, while the participation rate stood at 71.2% versus 66.4% across Greater Adelaide. Furthermore, 16.6% of local workers reported working from home during the Census, though pandemic-related lockdown measures should be kept in mind.
Resident employment centers primarily around professional & technical services, education & training, and health care & social assistance. In particular, the professional & technical sector shows marked concentration, holding a 1.4 times higher share of employment relative to the regional level. Conversely, retail trade remains smaller than average, engaging 7.1% of the Uraidla - Summertown workforce against 10.0% across Greater Adelaide. Comparing the Census working population against resident worker numbers indicates that local job opportunities within the area itself remain relatively constrained. AreaSearch assessment of ABS and SALM records reveals that in the 12 months to March 2026, local employment grew by 5.5% alongside a 5.1% increase in the labor force, reducing the unemployment rate by 0.4 percentage points. Across Greater Adelaide over the same timeframe, employment expanded by 4.2% and the labor force grew by 4.0%, lowering unemployment by 0.2 percentage points. Broader national projections published by Jobs and Skills Australia in Mar-26 provide additional context regarding future workforce requirements. Projecting these industry-level figures across five-year and ten-year spans onto the local employment structure reveals potential trajectories. Nationally, overall employment is slated to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with sector-specific rates showing wide variation. Applying these national sector outlooks to Uraidla - Summertown's industry profile suggests local job levels could expand by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years (calculated as a baseline weighted projection for reference, excluding local demographic adjustments).

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 — 111 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (6,042 at the 2021 Census → 6,508 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 (401021010). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
