Sales Detail
Bathurst has an estimated 6,840 residents, down from 7,001 at the 2021 Census — a change of 161 people, or 2.3%. The population has thinned by an average 0.7% a year over five years, slower than 97% of areas nationally. That puts 1,152 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
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Bathurst has an estimated resident count of approximately 6,840, calculated from wider ABS regional updates alongside post-Census address validations by AreaSearch. Compared to the 7,001 residents counted in the 2021 Census, this indicates a 161-person contraction (-2.3%). The figure is derived from AreaSearch's 6,834 population estimate, which evaluated the ABS ERP release from June 2025 together with 24 post-Census validated new addresses. Population density stands at 1,151 persons per square kilometer, aligning closely with broader benchmarks across AreaSearch assessed localities. Recent population gains were overwhelmingly underpinned by overseas migration, serving as the primary source of demographic expansion.
Projections for the suburb of Bathurst utilise the 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia dataset across SA2 boundaries with a 2022 baseline, supplemented where necessary by 2022 NSW State Government SA2 modeling anchored to 2021. For the period spanning 2032 to 2041, age-cohort growth trajectories from these datasets are incorporated across all areas. These demographic forecasts indicate that the area is on track to outpace median non-metropolitan growth nationally, with aggregated SA2 figures projecting a 1,150-person gain by 2041, representing a cumulative 16.7% expansion over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
86 new dwellings have been approved in Bathurst over the past five years, an average of 17 a year. That is 2.6 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 25, 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
Building approval records compiled by AreaSearch from ABS statistical area metrics show that Bathurst generated an average of approximately 17 residential approvals per year, accumulating an estimated 86 homes across the prior 5 financial years. In FY-25 to date, 25 approvals have been lodged. A softening population in recent periods has kept residential supply balanced against demand, fostering steady buyer selection while new construction averages an estimated building cost of $378,000, consistent with regional development benchmarks. Non-residential building activity remains modest, with commercial approvals standing at $3.7 million for the current financial year.
Per capita residential building approvals in Bathurst track at approximately three-quarters of the Rest of NSW benchmark, ranking the locality in the 47th percentile nationwide; this tighter pipeline constrains buyer selection and bolsters demand for existing stock, despite recent momentum in building approvals. Trailing the national norm, this dynamic highlights the locality's established profile and potential urban planning constraints. Compositionally, building activity is divided between 47.0% standalone homes and 53.0% medium and high-density housing. This tilt toward compact dwellings enhances affordability for first-home purchasers, downsizers, and property investors, while a low-density profile is evidenced by roughly 311 people per dwelling approval. Longer-term projections indicate Bathurst will expand by 1,144 residents by 2041, based on the latest quarterly modeling from AreaSearch. Should current construction volumes persist, residential development could lag demographic expansion, heightening buyer competition and underpinning upward pressure on property prices.

Charles Sturt University Bathurst Campus Master Plan
The Bathurst Campus Master Plan is Charles Sturt University's long-term framework for redeveloping its approximately 90 hectare Panorama Avenue campus over the next 15 to 20 years. Delivered as Phase 3 of the university's campus master planning program (following a University Portfolio Plan and the Wagga Wagga Campus Master Plan), the plan was prepared with Hassell and Alluvium and shaped by a 35-member working group, eight site visits and more than 100 consultation sessions with staff, students and the Bathurst community.Its central move is to consolidate the campus's currently dispersed buildings into a compact, vibrant academic core, releasing surplus land for partnership, residential and commercial opportunities while reducing operating costs. The plan covers campus visioning and strategy, spatial planning, and asset strategy and feasibility, and is structured around four pillars: a Place of Country, a Place for Education, a Place for Research and a Place for Community. It also proposes reinstating ecological corridors along Hawthornden Creek and surrounding wetlands, and aligns with Bathurst Regional Council's Vision Bathurst 2040 Local Strategic Planning Statement. The final plan document is published on the university website. Implementation will be phased and paced according to the university's financial capacity, with individual projects prioritised against the plan's strategic directions and supported where possible by industry and commercial partnerships. No individual works packages have been funded, approved or committed to date. The campus currently serves about 2,500 students across disciplines including communication, nursing, exercise science, dentistry and engineering.

3,748 residents of Bathurst are employed, from a labour force of 3,919. Unemployment sits at 4.4%, with participation at 65.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.5% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Statistical area aggregations by AreaSearch reveal that Bathurst sustains an educated labour base anchored by essential services, alongside an unemployment rate of 4.4%. As of March 2026, 3,748 local residents are employed. The jobless rate sits 0.3% above the 4.1% recorded for Regional NSW, while labour force participation is solid at 65.5% (compared to 60.6% across Regional NSW). Census findings indicated that 12.1% of workers carried out their roles from home, a metric potentially shaped by Covid-19 restrictions. Health care & social assistance, education & training, and retail trade represent the largest employment industries for residents.
Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 1.4% of local employment, well below the 5.3% regional benchmark. Although local positions exist, comparisons between the Census working population and resident counts indicate significant outbound commuting. According to ABS and SALM statistical aggregations from AreaSearch, Bathurst experienced a 1.2% reduction in its labour force alongside a 2.1% contraction in employment over the year to March 2026, leading to a 0.9 percentage point increase in unemployment. Over the same timeframe, Regional NSW saw employment fall by 0.9%, the labour force shrink by 0.4%, and unemployment rise by 0.5 percentage points. Broader national projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide guidance on medium-term labour demand. Nationally, employment is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with sectoral outcomes varying widely. Applying these industry benchmarks to the local workforce composition projects Bathurst employment to grow by 6.5% over five years and 13.8% over ten years (note that this weighting extrapolation is illustrative and excludes 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 — 24 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (7,001 at the 2021 Census → 6,840 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.
