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 recent ABS population updates and newly validated addresses through AreaSearch, the suburb of Burton (SA) has an estimated population of 6,640 as of May 2026. This figure represents a rise of 121 individuals, or 1.9%, compared to the 2021 Census count of 6,519 people. The adjustment is derived from a resident population of 6,625, as calculated by AreaSearch after reviewing the latest ERP data released by the ABS in June 2025, plus 24 additional confirmed new addresses since the Census date. This population level corresponds to a density of 1,088 persons per square kilometer, which aligns closely with typical densities observed in other areas evaluated by AreaSearch.
The suburb's 1.9% growth since the census places it within 2.0 percentage points of the SA3 region, which recorded 3.9% growth, indicating strong underlying expansion dynamics. Recent population gains in the suburb of Burton (SA) were mainly fueled by overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 62.0% of the total increase during the latest period. AreaSearch incorporates ABS and Geoscience Australia projections for individual SA2 regions, published in 2024 using 2022 as the base year. Where SA2 data is unavailable, or for periods past 2032, regional and LGA projections by age bracket from the SA State Government (released in 2023 based on 2021 records) are utilized, adjusted via a weighted aggregation methodology from LGA to SA2 boundaries. Future projections suggest that population growth for the suburb of Burton (SA) will track slightly below the national median for statistical divisions, with the area projected to expand by 630 persons to 2041 under combined SA2 forecasts, representing a total increase of 9.3% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
40 new dwellings have been approved in Burton (SA) over the past five years, an average of 8 a year. That is 1.2 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 7, 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
According to building approval figures compiled by AreaSearch from statistical subdivisions, Burton registers roughly 8 new dwelling approvals annually, totaling an estimated 40 homes across the previous 5 financial years. Thus far in FY-26, 7 approvals have been logged. With an average of only 0.4 new residents per year per constructed dwelling between FY-21 and FY-25, residential construction is matching or running ahead of local demand, giving purchasers broader choice and facilitating population growth that may outpace current projections, while new dwellings carry an average construction value of $245,000. Furthermore, $107.8 million in commercial building approvals have been logged this financial year, showing strong commercial development activity.
In comparison to Greater Adelaide, building activity in Burton is significantly depressed, running 67.0% below the regional average on a per-person basis. This low volume of new completions generally supports demand and value retention for pre-existing houses. This rate is similarly below the national average, reflecting the established layout of the neighborhood and potential zoning restrictions. Recent building starts consist of 90.0% detached houses and 10.0% townhouses or apartments, preserving the classic low-density character of the area with an emphasis on spacious family residences. There are approximately 1107 residents for each dwelling approval, highlighting a mature property market. Looking forward, the population is projected to rise by 615 residents by 2041, based on the latest quarterly calculations by AreaSearch. With current construction rates, the supply of new dwellings may struggle to keep pace with population growth, which could increase buyer rivalry and underpin price appreciation.

3,094 residents of Burton (SA) are employed, from a labour force of 3,346. Unemployment sits at 7.6%, with participation at 64.9%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.5% 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
The local workforce displays a balanced mix of professional and industrial jobs, with manufacturing and production industries highly active, an unemployment rate of 7.6%, and relatively stable employment conditions over the preceding year, according to aggregated regional statistics. In March 2026, 3,094 residents were employed, while the local unemployment rate stood 3.7% above the Greater Adelaide average of 3.8%, indicating room for growth. Workforce participation is overall comparable to the Greater Adelaide rate of 66.6%. Census records indicate that a minor 5.7% of the working population operated from home, though the context of COVID-19 restrictions should be kept in mind.
The primary employment sectors for local workers are health care & social assistance, manufacturing, and retail trade. The neighborhood exhibits a high concentration in manufacturing, with its employment share reaching 1.9 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical roles account for only 2.8% of the local workforce, compared to 7.3% across Greater Adelaide. Although there are employment opportunities situated within the locality, census data comparing the working population to residents suggests many travel to external employment hubs. An analysis of SALM and ABS statistics across broader statistical areas shows that over the 12-month period, the local labor force expanded by 0.8% while total employment fell by 0.2%, leading to a rise in the unemployment rate of 1.0 percentage points. Meanwhile, Greater Adelaide saw employment grow by 4.2%, labor force increase by 4.0%, and unemployment drop by 0.2 percentage points. National employment projections from May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia provide further context regarding future local demand. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce structure to model potential changes. Nationally, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though individual sectors will perform differently. Applying these industry weightings to the local employment profile indicates that local jobs could grow by 5.5% over five years and 12.1% over ten years, representing a basic weighting calculation for illustration that does not incorporate 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 — 24 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (6,519 at the 2021 Census → 6,640 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 (SAL40196). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
