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.

Detail
Following an investigation of ABS demographic adjustments for the wider region and fresh locations confirmed by AreaSearch after the Census, the suburb of Bonville has a projected population of approximately 3,297 as of May 2026. This represents a rise of 358 individuals (12.2%) from the 2,939 residents recorded during the 2021 Census. This adjustment is calculated from an estimated resident count of 3,294, determined by AreaSearch using the June 2025 ABS ERP publication alongside 88 validated new addresses registered after the Census. This population level translates to a density of 47 persons per square kilometer, offering residents substantial personal space.
The expansion rate of 12.2% in the suburb of Bonville since the 2021 census outpaced both the SA3 area (3.7%) and the broader SA4 region, establishing it as a primary driver of growth locally. This expansion was mostly fueled by overseas arrivals, who accounted for roughly 71.0% of the overall population gains in recent times. For each SA2 boundary, AreaSearch utilizes the projections published by ABS and Geoscience Australia in 2024, using 2022 as the baseline. In cases where SA2 sectors lack this data, projections from the NSW State Government released in 2022 with a 2021 baseline are substituted. The age-specific growth trajectories from these sources are likewise applied to all locations for the years 2032 to 2041. Looking at future demographic shifts, the methodology forecasts a downward trend in total residents, with the headcount in the suburb of Bonville expected to contract by 185 individuals by 2041. Conversely, expansion is anticipated within specific age brackets, particularly those aged 85 and over, which is set to rise by 38 individuals. Further details can be found in the section focusing on age distributions.

1,585 residents of Bonville are employed, from a labour force of 1,618. Unemployment sits at 2.0%, with participation at 60.7%. 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 4,109, about 125% of the resident population, so the area draws in more workers than it sends out. 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 suburb of Bonville is home to a qualified labor force with strong representation in key public service fields. The local unemployment rate stands at 2.0%, and employment growth is estimated at 3.0% over the prior year, based on localized data compiled by AreaSearch. In March 2026, working residents numbered 1,585, while the jobless rate sat 2.1% lower than the Regional NSW benchmark of 4.1%. Workforce participation matches the Regional NSW figure of 60.6%. Census data indicates a moderate 15.3% of the working population performed their duties from home, though this figure may reflect the influence of pandemic containment measures.
The primary sectors employing local residents are health care & social assistance, construction, and retail trade. The workforce shows a distinct concentration in construction, with its employment share reaching 1.3 times the regional average. In contrast, manufacturing represents a small portion of local employment at 3.8%, compared to 5.8% across the region. A ratio of 1.0 jobs per resident recorded at the Census demonstrates a strong local employment base. According to AreaSearch's compilation of SALM and ABS data for the broader region, the 12 months ending March 2026 saw local employment rise by 3.0% and the overall labor force expand by 2.6%, causing the unemployment rate to drop by 0.4 percentage points. This performance contrast with Regional NSW, where employment shrank by 0.9%, the labor force decreased by 0.4%, and unemployment climbed by 0.5 percentage points. Broader national labor projections released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 help illustrate prospective employment needs in the suburb of Bonville. These five and ten-year forecasts have been aligned with local industry profiles to model future trends. Globally, national employment is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though rates vary by sector. Projecting these trends onto the existing industry distribution of the suburb of Bonville yields an estimated local job growth of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, assuming a direct proportional weighting without adjusting for local population changes.

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 — 88 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (2,939 at the 2021 Census → 3,297 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.
