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
According to ABS demographic updates and post-Census address verification by AreaSearch, the suburb of Burrill Lake has a projected residency of approximately 1,715 individuals as of May 2026. This represents a contraction of 67 people (3.8%) compared to the 2021 Census, which documented 1,782 residents. This shift is calculated from a base resident population of 1,697, determined by AreaSearch from the ABS June 2025 ERP data release, combined with 37 validated new addresses registered post-Census. Such a population size results in a density of 398 persons per square kilometer, indicating a low-density profile with ample physical capacity for future residential expansion.
Throughout the last ten years, the suburb of Burrill Lake has shown steady development patterns, recording a 1.5% compound annual growth rate that outpaced the wider SA3 region. The expansion during this timeframe was mainly fueled by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 65.0% of the overall population increases. AreaSearch incorporates projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for every SA2 region, which were published in 2024 using 2022 as the baseline. For SA2 regions lacking this coverage, projections from the NSW State Government released in 2022 using 2021 as the baseline are employed. Age-specific growth percentages derived from these datasets are projected forward for the years 2032 to 2041. Looking at future demographic shifts, the suburb of Burrill Lake is projected to experience a strong population surge, placing it in the highest quarter of non-metropolitan regions across Australia, with an estimated addition of 434 residents by 2041 based on compiled SA2 projections, representing a total expansion of 24.3% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
65 new dwellings have been approved in Burrill Lake over the past five years, an average of 13 a year. That is 7.4 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 4, 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 evaluations of ABS building permit statistics apportioned from regional data, the suburb of Burrill Lake has averaged approximately 13 home approvals each year, totaling an estimated 65 residential permits over the past 5 financial years (running from FY-21 to FY-25) alongside 4 permits registered so far in FY-26. Amid a contracting population, this rate of construction has likely matched market demand, ensuring adequate options for prospective purchasers, with newly approved residences carrying an average build cost of $672,000, indicating that developers are prioritizing the upscale market with high-specification builds.
Furthermore, commercial building approvals have reached $8.3 million during the current financial year, highlighting the residential focus of the neighborhood. In comparison to the Rest of NSW, building rates per capita in the suburb of Burrill Lake remain comparable, maintaining a balanced market aligned with neighboring localities, even though construction momentum has slowed lately. The composition of new projects consists of 67.0% detached houses and 33.0% semi-detached or multi-unit dwellings, indicating a growing availability of medium-density choices that diversify options across different price points, ranging from conventional family homes to more budget-friendly compact layouts. This represents a clear shift from the current housing stock (which is 90.0% houses), indicating a reduction in available greenfield land and adjusting to changing lifestyle choices and housing cost constraints. With approximately 227 people per approved permit, the suburb of Burrill Lake represents a low-density settlement profile. Long-term forecasts indicate the suburb of Burrill Lake will add 416 residents by 2041, based on the most recent quarterly projections from AreaSearch. Current home construction is keeping pace with this projected growth, though home buyers may face intensifying market rivalry as the population expands.

649 residents of Burrill Lake are employed, from a labour force of 682. Unemployment sits at 4.8%, with participation at 49.1%. 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 1,551, about 90% 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 workforce in the suburb of Burrill Lake is evenly distributed between professional and trade-based roles, with a strong presence in vital service industries and an unemployment rate of 4.8%, according to compiled regional statistics from AreaSearch. In March 2026, there were 649 employed locals, while the jobless rate stood at 0.7% higher than the Regional NSW benchmark of 4.1%, and the participation rate was considerably lower (49.1% relative to 60.6% across Regional NSW). Census records indicate that a modest 10.4% of working residents performed their jobs from home, although the influence of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions should be taken into account.
The premier employment fields for local workers are building and construction, healthcare and social assistance, and retail commerce. The suburb of Burrill Lake displays a marked labor specialization in the building sector, where the employment concentration is 1.8 times that of the regional average. Conversely, primary industries like agriculture, forestry, and fishing are underrepresented, engaging just 1.1% of local workers compared to 5.3% across Regional NSW. A comparison of Census local employment figures against resident workforce numbers indicates that the suburb of Burrill Lake offers a restricted volume of local job opportunities. According to AreaSearch evaluations of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated from broader regions, the 12 months leading up to March 2026 saw the local workforce shrink by 1.2% alongside a 3.7% drop in employment, causing the unemployment rate to grow by 2.5 percentage points. By comparison, Regional NSW recorded a 0.9% drop in employment and a 0.4% contraction in the labor force, with the unemployment rate increasing by 0.5 percentage points. National employment projections published by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 offer additional context regarding future workforce demands in the suburb of Burrill Lake. These five-year and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local workforce structure to model potential employment trends. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, expansion rates vary widely across different sectors. Adjusting these sector-specific forecasts to the local industry mix suggests that employment in the suburb of Burrill Lake would rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.4% over ten years (note that this represents a direct weighting extrapolation for demonstration purposes and does not incorporate local population forecasts).

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 — 37 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (1,782 at the 2021 Census → 1,715 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.
