Detail
According to AreaSearch's evaluation of broader ABS population revisions alongside post-Census validated address counts, the suburb of Broadford has an estimated 4,797 residents as of Aug 2026. This indicates an expansion of 205 people (4.5%) relative to the 2021 Census tally of 4,592 people. This trend is established from an ERP resident count of 4,759 generated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 release, combined with 123 validated new addresses recorded after the Census date. With 43 persons per square kilometer, the suburb of Broadford maintains a spacious living environment.
The local 4.5% post-2021 Census expansion outpaced both the Rest of Vic. and the broader SA4 region (3.1%), positioning the area as a regional growth frontrunner. Net interstate migration served as the primary contributor, accounting for roughly 52.0% of recent population additions, with natural increase and overseas arrivals also delivering positive contributions. Projections for each SA2 district rely on ABS/Geoscience Australia figures published in 2024 using 2022 as their benchmark, while uncovered districts utilise 2023 VIC State Government Regional/LGA projections converted to SA2 boundaries via weighted growth aggregation. In addition, aggregated age-specific growth trajectories are mapped across all locations for 2032 to 2041. Over this timeframe, the suburb of Broadford is anticipated to experience exceptional expansion that ranks among the top 10 percent of regional Australian territories, adding 2,702 persons by 2041 under SA2-level modeling to register an overall gain of 55.5% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
213 new dwellings have been approved in Broadford over the past five years, an average of 42 a year. That places the area in the 58th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 9 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 40 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 88% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 49, 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
Analysis of ABS building approvals by AreaSearch indicates that Broadford averages roughly 42 residential approvals per annum, totaling an estimated 213 approved dwellings across the last 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 49 authorized to date in FY-25. An influx averaging 1.1 new residents per approved dwelling over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) demonstrates balanced demand and supply conditions, supporting market stability as new dwellings register an average construction cost of $404,000. Furthermore, $14.0 million in commercial building permits have been logged during the current financial year, pointing to steady non-residential development.
Per-capita residential approval rates in Broadford track closely with the Rest of Vic., reinforcing regional development alignment. The composition of new residential approvals consists of 88.0% standalone houses alongside 12.0% semi-detached and attached formats, preserving a low-density neighborhood fabric tailored for family living. With an average of roughly 122 people per approval, the locality maintains its low-density residential profile. According to the latest quarterly forecasts from AreaSearch, Broadford is projected to welcome 2,664 additional inhabitants by 2041. If construction continues at current paces, residential building may fall behind population gains, potentially tightening market supply and bolstering price levels.

2,306 residents of Broadford are employed, from a labour force of 2,398. Unemployment sits at 3.8%, with participation at 62.1%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 4,173, about 87% 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
Broadford maintains a diverse labor pool balanced between white-collar and blue-collar occupations, supported by strong representation across essential services and a low unemployment rate of 3.8% based on statistical area aggregations by AreaSearch. In March 2026, employed residents numbered 2,306, with local unemployment sitting 0.2% above the 3.7% recorded in Regional Vic., while participation aligns closely with the Regional Vic. benchmark of 61.1%. In addition, Census records show that 14.2% of workers worked from home, a figure influenced by Covid-19 restrictions. Local workforce participation is centered predominantly in construction, manufacturing, and health care & social assistance.
Specialization is particularly pronounced in construction, where the local employment proportion reaches 1.6 times the wider regional baseline. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 1.6% of resident employment, trailing the 7.5% share observed across Regional Vic.. A comparison between resident workers and local jobs recorded in Census data suggests that internal employment opportunities within the boundary remain constrained. AreaSearch analysis of ABS and SALM series reveals that over the 12 months leading to March 2026, the local labor pool contracted by 3.1% and total employment fell by 3.2%, while jobless rates remained steady. Over the same interval, Regional Vic. saw employment soften by 0.1%, labor force size reduce by 0.3%, and unemployment decline by 0.2 percentage points. Broader national projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide context for future workforce requirements across the five and ten-year horizons when weighted against the local occupational profile. While nationwide jobs are projected to rise by 6.6% across five years and 13.7% over ten years, industry performance varies considerably; applying these sector-level expectations to the local job base indicates potential growth of 5.8% over five years and 12.4% over ten years (representing a baseline weighted extrapolation that excludes localized population adjustments).

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 — 123 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (4,592 at the 2021 Census → 4,797 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.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (SAL20345). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
