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.

Sales Detail
Banora Point has an estimated 16,870 residents, up from 16,460 at the 2021 Census — a change of 410 people, or 2.5%. Growth has averaged 0.5% a year over five years, slower than 77% of areas nationally. That puts 1,822 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
Based on an evaluation of ABS population updates for the wider region, alongside new addresses validated by AreaSearch since the Census, the resident population of the suburb of Banora Point is estimated at approximately 16,870 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 410 people (2.5%) compared to the 2021 Census, which recorded 16,460 people. This adjustment is derived from the resident population of 16,859, calculated by AreaSearch using the latest ABS ERP data release (June 2025) plus 15 validated new addresses since the Census date. This population level translates to a density of 1,821 persons per square kilometer, which exceeds the typical average across national locations assessed by AreaSearch.
The 2.5% increase since the census positions the suburb of Banora Point within 1.2 percentage points of the SA4 region (3.7%), demonstrating competitive growth dynamics. The expansion was largely fueled by interstate migration, which accounted for approximately 62.0% of the overall population gains in recent times. AreaSearch implements ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, published in 2024 with 2022 as the base year. For any SA2 regions lacking this coverage, projections from the NSW State Government at the SA2 level are utilized, published in 2022 with 2021 as the base year. Growth rates for specific age groups from these aggregates are also applied to all areas for the years 2032 to 2041. Looking at upcoming demographic trends, growth in the lower quartile of national non-metropolitan locations is expected, with the suburb of Banora Point projected to add 573 persons by 2041 based on collective SA2-level projections, representing a total increase of 3.3% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
112 new dwellings have been approved in Banora Point over the past five years, an average of 22 a year. That is 1.4 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 16, well below 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 AreaSearch analysis of ABS building approvals allocated from statistical areas, approvals in Banora Point average about 22 new homes annually. This translates to an estimated 112 homes approved over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) and 15 so far during FY-26. With an average of 4 people per year moving to the locality for every completed dwelling over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), demand outpaces new supply by a wide margin, which commonly triggers price appreciation and heightened competition among buyers.
The average expected construction cost for these new homes stands at $709,000, showing that developers are focusing on the upper-tier market segment with premium properties. Furthermore, commercial approvals totaling $1.1 million have been logged this financial year, pointing to a predominantly residential orientation. Relative to the Rest of NSW, Banora Point exhibits significantly lower construction volumes (56.0% below the regional average per capita). This undersupply of new dwellings generally bolsters demand and values for established properties. This rate also sits below the national benchmark, highlighting the mature nature of the locality and implying potential regulatory planning restrictions. Residential construction comprises 83.0% detached houses and 17.0% townhouses or apartments, which preserves the established suburban environment focused on spacious family properties. Notably, developers are building a higher share of detached homes than the historical baseline indicates (62.0% at Census), showing sustained interest in family houses despite broader densification trends. Representing a highly established market, there are approximately 1525 people for every dwelling approval. Looking forward, the population is projected to expand by 562 residents by 2041 (calculated from the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimate). The current pace of development appears to align well with future needs, supporting balanced market conditions without major price inflation.

7,321 residents of Banora Point are employed, from a labour force of 7,527. Unemployment sits at 2.7%, with participation at 53.4%. 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 14,201, about 84% 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 presents a balanced mix of professional and manual roles, with a strong presence in essential services, an unemployment rate of only 2.7%, and an estimated job growth rate of 3.5% over the preceding year, according to AreaSearch aggregations of statistical area data. As of March 2026, 7,321 residents are employed, while the local unemployment rate sits 1.4% below the Regional NSW benchmark of 4.1%. Workforce participation is considerably lower, standing at 53.4% compared to 60.6% in Regional NSW. Census data indicates that a modest 12.5% of workers operated from home, though the influence of pandemic restrictions during this period should be kept in mind.
The primary sectors employing local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction. The community displays a marked concentration in retail trade, where the employment proportion is 1.4 times the regional norm. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 0.7% of the local workforce, which is below the 5.3% average for Regional NSW. The largely residential community seems to offer a modest volume of local employment, as shown by the comparison between the Census working population and resident population figures. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated from wider geographic zones, the recent 12-month period saw employment rise by 3.5% while the labor force expanded by 3.9%, leading to a 0.3 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. In comparison, Regional NSW experienced a 0.9% drop in employment, a 0.4% shrinkage of the labor force, and a 0.5 percentage point rise in unemployment. National employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia dated May-25 offer additional context on future demand trends. These projections, spanning five and ten-year horizons, have been applied to the local workforce distribution to project future growth. Although national employment is predicted to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rates of change differ widely across industries. Applying these sector-specific forecasts to the local occupational mix indicates that employment could grow by 6.8% over five years and 14.0% over ten years (note that this represents a direct weighted extrapolation for illustration and excludes localized population 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 — 15 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (16,460 at the 2021 Census → 16,870 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.
