This analysis uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, which can materially differ from Statistical Areas (SA2) even when sharing the same name.
SAL boundaries are defined by Australia Post and the Australian Bureau of Statistics to represent commonly-known suburb names used in postal addresses.
Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census data collection and may combine multiple suburbs or use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Albion Park has an estimated 15,056 residents, up from 13,826 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,230 people, or 8.9%. Growth has averaged 1.8% a year over five years. 163 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 79.0% of that increase. That puts 1,739 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 ABS population updates for the wider region and new address datasets verified by AreaSearch after the Census, the suburb of Albion Park has an estimated population of 15,056 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 1,230 residents (8.9%) relative to the 2021 Census, which documented a population of 13,826. This population shift is calculated from a resident base of 14,562, estimated by AreaSearch using the June 2025 ABS ERP publication, alongside 163 confirmed new addresses established after the Census. The current population translates to a density of 1,738 persons per square kilometer, a level that exceeds the average of national locations tracked by AreaSearch.
The 8.9% expansion rate in the suburb of Albion Park since the 2021 census outperformed both the Rest of NSW (4.9%) and the SA4 region, positioning it as a local growth leader. This population rise was mainly driven by interstate migration, which accounted for approximately 79.0% of the overall population gains, though all demographic components including natural increase and overseas migration remained positive. For each SA2 region, AreaSearch incorporates ABS and Geoscience Australia projections published in 2024 with a 2022 baseline. For any SA2 locations lacking this data, projections from the NSW State Government released in 2022 with a 2021 baseline are implemented. Age cohort growth rates derived from these sources are extended to all regions for the years 2032 to 2041. Based on these anticipated demographic changes, the suburb of Albion Park is projected to undergo exceptional growth that ranks in the top 10 percent of regional areas nationwide, with the population forecast to expand by 5,953 persons by 2041 according to merged SA2 projections, representing a 36.3% increase over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
612 new dwellings have been approved in Albion Park over the past five years, an average of 122 a year. That places the area in the 70th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 8 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 133 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 58% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 94, broadly in line with that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this Suburb (SAL) boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
AreaSearch analysis of ABS building approvals across statistical boundaries indicates that Albion Park averages roughly 122 residential approvals annually, culminating in approximately 612 approved homes over the preceding 5 financial years. In the current FY-26 period, 87 approvals have been recorded. Over the 5 financial years spanning FY-21 to FY-25, development averaged 2 new residents per year for each approved dwelling, pointing to steady demand that supports property values. The average construction value of these new dwellings is $444,000, which is higher than typical regional averages and highlights a focus on quality builds.
Meanwhile, commercial development approvals total $938,000 for the current financial year, representing very low commercial construction activity. Albion Park exhibits development levels per resident that are comparable to the Rest of NSW, supporting property market stability in line with regional trends. The mix of new residential projects consists of 58.0% detached houses and 42.0% semi-detached properties or apartments, showing a shift toward attached housing styles that offer diverse price points, from larger family residences to affordable compact alternatives. This trend deviates noticeably from the current housing stock, which is 85.0% detached houses, pointing to a decrease in available development land and reflecting changing lifestyle choices and housing affordability pressures. With a ratio of approximately 306 people for every approved dwelling, Albion Park is experiencing an evolving market. Demographic projections indicate that Albion Park's population will rise by 5,459 residents up to 2041 based on the most recent quarterly estimate from AreaSearch. If residential construction volumes remain at current levels, housing supply may fail to keep pace with population growth, which is likely to heighten buyer competition and support upward pressure on prices.

Albion Park Rail Innovation Hub
No evidence could be located from NSW Government, Shellharbour City Council, University of Wollongong, Regional Development Australia or other authoritative sources confirming that this proposed innovation hub is an active or progressing project. The supplied project website appears unavailable and no current planning application or official project documentation could be verified. The project should therefore remain classified as Proposed pending official confirmation.

The development features 200 hectares of green open space, 35 kilometres of scenic walking and cycling trails, and includes plans for new primary and high schools, playgrounds, sports fields, and a shopping village.
7,388 residents of Albion Park are employed, from a labour force of 7,646. Unemployment sits at 3.4%, with participation at 66.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 11,521, about 77% 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
Albion Park possesses a diverse workforce distributed across white-collar and blue-collar roles, with a strong presence in essential services and an unemployment rate of only 3.4%, according to aggregated statistical area data from AreaSearch. As of March 2026, employed residents count 7,388, with the unemployment rate sitting 0.7% below the 4.1% recorded in Regional NSW. Furthermore, the workforce participation rate of 66.6% is higher than the Regional NSW average of 60.6%. Census data indicates that a moderate 20.5% of the working population performed their jobs from home, though this figure may be influenced by pandemic lockdown periods.
The primary employment sectors for local residents are health care & social assistance, construction, and retail trade. The area shows a distinct employment concentration in transport, postal & warehousing, with its workforce share in this sector reaching 1.7 times the regional average. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing is under-represented, employing only 0.2% of the local workforce compared to 5.3% in Regional NSW. Because it is a mostly residential area, local employment opportunities appear limited based on the comparison of working residents against local jobs in the Census. According to AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated from broader areas, the year ending March 2026 saw the local labour force shrink by 2.6% and employment fall by 2.7%, while the unemployment rate remained stable. In comparison, Regional NSW experienced a 0.9% drop in employment, a 0.4% decline in the labour force, and a 0.5 percentage point increase in unemployment. National employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia released in May-25 provide further context for future labour demand in Albion Park. These projections, looking at five and ten-year horizons, have been aligned with the local industry profile to estimate future trends. Nationally, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though rates vary significantly by sector. Applying these industry-specific rates to the local employment distribution suggests that employment among residents will rise by 6.3% over five years and 13.3% over ten years, representing a simple weighted extrapolation that does not incorporate local population forecasts.

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 — 163 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (13,826 at the 2021 Census → 15,056 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.
