Sales Detail
Apollo Bay (Vic.) has an estimated 1,827 residents, up from 1,790 at the 2021 Census — a change of 37 people, or 2.1%. Growth has averaged 0.7% a year over five years, slower than 79% of areas nationally. Density is about 21 people per 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 the latest demographic updates from the ABS for the surrounding region, combined with recent address validations performed by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Apollo Bay (Vic.) has an estimated residency of 1,827 individuals as of May 2026. This represents an addition of 37 people (2.1%) relative to the 2021 Census, when the count stood at 1,790 people. This updated figure is derived from the resident population of 1,827, which AreaSearch calculated by analyzing the June 2025 ERP data release from the ABS alongside 59 validated new addresses confirmed since the Census.
With this population level, the area maintains a density of 21 persons per square kilometer, ensuring resident spaces remain highly open. The 2.1% growth rate achieved by the suburb of Apollo Bay (Vic.) since the 2021 census contrasted with the SA3 area (-1.6%) and the SA4 region, positioning it as a local growth outperformer. Growth during recent timeframes was largely supported by arrivals from overseas, who made up approximately 88.0% of the overall population rise. Projections established by Geoscience Australia and the ABS for individual SA2 zones, published in 2024 using 2022 as the baseline, are utilized by AreaSearch. For SA2 territories where these figures are unavailable, estimations rely on the 2023 Regional/LGA projections from the VIC State Government, adjusted by weighting and aggregating population changes from the LGA scale to SA2 boundaries. Age cohort growth rates determined via this aggregation method are projected forward from 2032 to 2041. Looking at future demographic shifts, expansion is expected to align with the lowest national quartile for regional areas, with the suburb of Apollo Bay (Vic.) projected to add 59 residents by 2041 under aggregated SA2 forecasts, representing a 3.2% rise over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
83 new dwellings have been approved in Apollo Bay (Vic.) over the past five years, an average of 16 a year. That is 9.3 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 21, running ahead of 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
According to building approval figures compiled by AreaSearch from local statistical reports, Apollo Bay averages approximately 16 residential approvals annually. This includes an estimated 83 new dwellings approved over the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, alongside 20 approvals recorded during FY-26 so far. Since only 0.8 people migrated to the area per approved dwelling annually over the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, the volume of new builds is running ahead of or matching local demand, giving purchasers diverse options and creating headroom for growth beyond existing forecasts.
Furthermore, the average estimated value of these new approvals is $773,000, illustrating that builders are prioritizing high-end, premium housing projects. Compared to the Rest of Vic., local building approvals per resident are 88.0% higher in Apollo Bay, providing buyers with broader options despite a recent moderation in approval volumes. Recent construction has consisted entirely of detached homes, maintaining the low-density profile of the community and appealing to purchasers seeking extra space. Interestingly, builders are focusing on conventional houses at a higher rate than the baseline proportion recorded during the Census (84.0%), reflecting sustained demand for family-focused properties. With roughly 213 residents per approved dwelling, the area displays typical low-density features. Looking forward, the latest quarterly analysis by AreaSearch estimates that Apollo Bay will add 59 residents by 2041. Given the current pace of construction, the supply of new housing is well-positioned to satisfy this demand, maintaining favorable conditions for purchasers and potentially allowing for faster demographic growth than current models predict.

865 residents of Apollo Bay (Vic.) are employed, from a labour force of 874. Unemployment sits at 1.1%, with participation at 54.1%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.0% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 1,477, about 81% 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
Apollo Bay is characterized by a skilled resident workforce with a strong representation in travel and lodging services, alongside an unemployment rate of only 1.1%, according to statistical area data compiled by AreaSearch. As of March 2026, employed residents total 865, with the jobless rate sitting 2.5% below the Regional Vic. average of 3.7%. However, the participation rate of 54.1% is lower than the 61.1% recorded across Regional Vic. Census data indicates that 19.9% of the local workforce operated from home, though this figure may reflect the influence of lockdown restrictions.
The primary employment sectors for local workers are food and lodging services, building construction, and retail. The region exhibits a distinct concentration in food and lodging services, where the employment proportion is 3.6 times the regional average. Conversely, healthcare and social assistance services have a smaller footprint, employing 9.7% of workers compared to 16.8% across the state's regional areas. A comparison of the Census working population against the resident count suggests that local job opportunities within the immediate area are relatively constrained. According to AreaSearch's compilation of ABS and SALM data across broader regions, the total labor force contracted by 5.9% and overall employment fell by 5.7% during the 12 months ending March 2026, which left the unemployment rate mostly unchanged. In comparison, Regional Vic. experienced a minor 0.1% decline in employment, a 0.3% drop in the labor force, and a 0.2 percentage point decrease in unemployment. Projections released in May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia provide further context regarding future employment trends. These five-year and ten-year national forecasts have been aligned with the local industry profile to estimate employment growth. Although total national employment is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rates of change vary widely across different fields. Mapping these sector-specific forecasts to the local workforce composition indicates that employment in Apollo Bay could grow by 6.0% over five years and 12.5% over ten years, representing a basic weighted projection for illustrative purposes rather than a localized demographic forecast.

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 — 59 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (1,790 at the 2021 Census → 1,827 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 (SAL20049). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
