Sales Detail
Gilgandra has an estimated 2,962 residents. The population has thinned by an average 0.5% a year over five years, slower than 95% of areas nationally. Fewer than ten people live on each square kilometre, across a boundary that takes in surrounding rural land. Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.
Detail
In the suburb of Gilgandra, the resident population stands at an estimated 2,962 as of Aug 2026, according to AreaSearch's evaluation of regional ABS releases alongside post-Census validated address additions. Compared to the 2,983 people documented in the 2021 Census, this indicates a contraction of 21 people (0.7%). The updated tally incorporates the ABS ERP release from June 2025 together with 16 validated new addresses logged after the Census count. This headcount translates to a low population density of 4.6 persons per square kilometer, ensuring considerable personal space. Over recent intervals, natural growth accounted for roughly 53.0% of all population additions, serving as the main driver of local demographic expansion.
Projections utilised by AreaSearch for each SA2 district draw upon 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia figures pegged to a 2022 baseline, supplemented where needed by 2022 NSW State Government SA2 forecasts using a 2021 base year. For the years 2032 to 2041, cohort-specific growth rates from these datasets are projected forward. Under this framework, the suburb of Gilgandra is expected to experience population contraction, shedding 317 persons by 2041. Despite the aggregate downturn, certain age segments are set to expand, most notably persons aged 75 to 84, who are forecast to increase by 27 people. See the age section for more details.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
Detail
Residential building approvals in Gilgandra remain extremely constrained, averaging less than 1 dwelling approvals annually and reaching a total of 1 across the past five years. Such restrained activity aligns with its rural setting, where home building typically responds to individual domestic requirements instead of broad market trends. Because overall consent volumes are minimal, any single development project can exert a substantial effect on comparative metrics and annual growth figures. Building activity in Gilgandra tracks well below levels recorded across Rest of NSW, with local construction volumes similarly trailing nationwide benchmarks.
Given that demographic projections point toward population stability or contraction, easing demand for residential real estate should create advantageous conditions for prospective buyers in Gilgandra.

Gunyah - North-West Urban Release Area
A master-planned community of up to 5,500 new homes, including a commercial hub, seniors living, parks, and a school site.
Concrete World Warehouse and Cafe
Two-stage industrial development approved for an 11,197sqm site at 14 Fiscal Way in Dubbo's Blueridge Business Park. Originally proposed by Concrete World Industries, stage one comprised a concrete supply warehouse with showroom and office, and stage two comprised 11 light industrial units and a cafe. Dubbo Regional Council approved the $6.8 million development application in June 2023. The site was later marketed for sale by Raine and Horne Commercial as a shovel-ready, DA-approved parcel, with expressions of interest closing in May 2025; the listing is now marked sold.Council infrastructure pipeline records list Drayton Group as the current holder of the approval. Construction has not yet commenced and the new owner's development intentions are unconfirmed.
New Dubbo Bridge (Aunty Pearl Gibbs Bridge)
Construction of a 660-metre, dual-lane, 20-span, high-level bridge over the Macquarie River and floodplain, using 89 piles and 123 reinforced concrete girders to carry an approximately 5,000-tonne deck. The project includes 2.2km of new Newell Highway realignment and intersection upgrades at Whylandra, River, Thompson and Bourke Streets. Designed to ease central Dubbo congestion and maintain flood-event access, it supports future development of around 5,500 new homes in the region. In December 2025 the bridge was officially named the Aunty Pearl Gibbs Bridge, honouring the Aboriginal rights activist.As of mid-2026 the structure is complete, with surfacing, lighting, drainage and intersection works underway; opening to traffic is targeted for mid-2026, with full project completion including approach roads expected by late 2026, weather permitting.
Dubbo Firming Power Station
An approved gas-fired firming power station in the heavy industrial zone of north Dubbo, designed to support the Central-West Orana Renewable Energy Zone. The original 2024 approval permits a 64 MW dual-fuel power plant (open-cycle gas turbine or reciprocating engine), a 20 MW hydrogen electrolysis facility, gas storage pipeline and connection to the existing gas network. Squadron Energy has lodged a modification request to increase generation capacity from 64 MW to 180 MW and introduce reciprocating engine technology.Both generation technologies are capable of running on hydrogen blends of up to 25 percent. The plant will provide back-up electricity during periods of low renewable generation and peak demand, expected to support up to 150 construction jobs and 5 ongoing operational roles. Treated water for hydrogen production will be supplied from a new advanced wastewater treatment facility at Dubbo Sewerage Treatment Plant, jointly funded with Dubbo Regional Council.
Dubbo Base Hospital Redevelopment Stages 3 & 4
A $150 million NSW Government investment that delivered a new three-storey clinical building (the Macquarie Building) at Dubbo Hospital. Key features include an expanded Emergency Department, medical imaging, ambulatory care, a critical care floor with ICU and cardiac catheter laboratory, and a surgical inpatient unit. The project was delivered alongside the $35 million Western Cancer Centre to enhance regional healthcare for Western NSW.
1,212 residents of Gilgandra are employed, from a labour force of 1,255. Unemployment sits at 3.4%, with participation at 51.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.1% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,458, about 83% 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 local labour market in Gilgandra maintains an even distribution between blue-collar and white-collar roles, supported by a substantial presence in core public and social services alongside a jobless rate of just 3.4%, as compiled by AreaSearch across statistical divisions. Total employed residents reached 1,212 as of March 2026, with local unemployment tracking 0.7% under the 4.1% recorded in Regional NSW, although overall labour force engagement is comparatively subdued at 51.6% against 60.6% in Regional NSW. According to Census findings, working from home was limited to 8.1% of local workers, though broader Covid-19 restrictions during that period may have influenced this outcome.
Gilgandra's workforce is concentrated primarily across agriculture, forestry & fishing, retail trade, and health care & social assistance. Specialization in agriculture, forestry & fishing is especially pronounced, commanding a local employment proportion 2.2 times that of the broader region. Conversely, manufacturing accounts for merely 2.1% of jobs locally, lagging the 5.8% mark in Regional NSW. Comparison between resident counts and Census working population figures suggests a relatively constrained volume of jobs available within the immediate locality. An examination of combined broader statistical area SALM and ABS figures by AreaSearch reveals that across the 12 months to March 2026, the local workforce contracted by 2.6% while total employment dipped 0.8%, resulting in a 1.8 percentage points decrease in the unemployment rate. Over the identical timeframe, Regional NSW witnessed employment drop 0.9%, the overall labour pool decrease 0.4%, and joblessness climb by 0.5 percentage points. Future workplace demand can be evaluated against Mar-26 national employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia mapped to local sectoral shares. While national labour totals are modeled to grow 6.6% across five years and 13.7% over ten years, industry expansion paths diverge considerably. Applying these sector adjustments to Gilgandra's worker base yields an estimated local employment rise of 6.1% over five years and 13.0% over ten years (please note this is a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not take into account localised population projections).

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 — 16 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,983 at the 2021 Census → 2,962 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.
