In cases where SA2 data is unavailable, or for periods past 2032, regional and LGA projections categorized by age from the SA State Government (released in 2023 utilizing 2021 data) are applied, adjusted using a weighted aggregation of population increases from LGA to SA2 scales.

The working-day population is estimated at 3,260, about 73% 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 suburb of Broadview possesses a highly qualified workforce with strong representation in key service sectors, an unemployment rate of only 2.9%, and employment growth estimated at 0.8% over the preceding year, using aggregated statistical area data from AreaSearch.

The local unemployment rate sits 0.9% below the 3.8% recorded across Greater Adelaide, while the labor force participation rate is relatively typical, sitting at 70.1% compared to 66.6% in Greater Adelaide. Census statistics show that a modest 10.2% of workers performed their duties from home, though this figure may reflect the influence of COVID-19 restrictions.

The primary employment fields for working residents are healthcare and social assistance, education and training, and accommodation and food services. There is a clear local specialization in the accommodation and food services sector, where the employment concentration is 1.3 times the regional average. Conversely, retail trade is underrepresented, employing only 8.2% of the local workforce compared to 10.0% across Greater Adelaide. The heavily residential nature of the neighborhood suggests a scarcity of local employment, as shown by comparing the count of local workers against working residents. According to AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated from wider geographic regions, employment grew by 0.8% and the labor force expanded by 1.0% during the 12 months ending March 2026, leading to a rise in the unemployment rate of 0.2 percentage points. This trend differed from Greater Adelaide, which saw employment rise by 4.2%, labor force grow by 4.0%, and the unemployment rate decline by 0.2 percentage points. National employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia dated May-25 offer additional context on future local demand. These five and ten-year forecasts have been aligned with local workforce distribution to project future growth. Nationally, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though these growth trajectories vary widely by sector. Applying these industry-specific trends to the local workforce mix suggests employment for the suburb of Broadview would rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.8% over ten years, noting that this is a simple weighted projection for illustration and excludes local demographic variables.

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 — 13 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (4,450 at the 2021 Census → 4,466 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 (SAL40164). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.

Common questions about this page

How do Broadview suburb boundaries differ from Statistical Areas?
This page uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries (suburb-style geography). SAL represents commonly-known suburb names used in addresses, while Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census/statistical reporting. Even when sharing the same name, SAL and SA2 boundaries often cover different geographic areas with different populations.
Where does the data on this Broadview page come from?
AreaSearch compiles this page from official and industry sources — including ABS, Geoscience Australia, Valuer General, Provider directories, DEWR, JSA, State Transport Departments and ACARA — then aggregates them to the boundary shown and calculates the rankings, growth rates and benchmarks itself. Property sales come from the state valuation authority, rents from state rental bond lodgements, development applications from council and state planning portals, school data from ACARA, and public transport from state transport departments.
Is the Broadview data on this page just from the 2021 Census?
No. Most of this page is maintained well beyond the Census. Sourced entirely from current releases: development & approvals (Jun 2026), property sales & rents (Aug 2026), infrastructure projects (May 2026) and services & amenities (Jul 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to May 2026), age profile (to May 2026), employment (to Mar 2026), income (to FY 2023), education (to Aug 2026), transport (to Jul 2026) and health (to 2024). Population and age cohorts in particular are re-based to the latest ABS Estimated Resident Population rather than left at 2021 counts. Only housing, households and cultural diversity remain wholly Census-based, because no more current small-area dataset exists for those measures.
