Detail
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Girraween (NT) has an estimated population of 1,879 residents, according to AreaSearch assessment combining ABS regional demographic releases with 5 validated new addresses identified since the Census date. This represents a gain of 211 people (12.6%) relative to the 2021 Census tally of 1,668 people, with current levels inferred from the ABS June 2025 ERP data release. Across the locality, population density sits at 79 persons per square kilometer, indicating generous space per resident and capacity for upcoming residential expansion. With its 12.6% expansion rate outperforming the 9.5% national benchmark since the 2021 census, the suburb stands out as a regional growth leader.
Natural increase served as the foremost growth engine, generating around 63.0% of total demographic additions over recent periods, alongside positive contributions from both overseas migration and interstate migration. Demographic projections for the suburb of Girraween (NT) utilize the ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 modeling published in 2024 with a 2022 baseline, supplemented by cohort-specific growth rates from the ABS Greater Capital Region series (released in 2023, based on 2022 data) for non-covered areas and post-2032 horizons. Future projections indicate population gains tracking above the national median for statistical areas. By 2041, aggregated SA2 figures anticipate the locality will expand by 244 persons, reflecting overall expansion of 13.0% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
Detail
Residential planning data compiled by AreaSearch from ABS building approvals indicates that Girraween records approximately 1 new home approved annually, with 5 homes approved across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) and 9 approvals registered to date in FY-25. An influx of 10.6 people per year for each completed dwelling over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) demonstrates that local buyer demand significantly outpaces additions to housing stock, which commonly fuels property price appreciation and heightens buyer competition. Meanwhile, expected construction costs for new dwellings average $447,000.
Per capita building approvals in Girraween sit 57.0% below the regional average of Greater Darwin. Although construction momentum has recently improved, this limited delivery of new residential stock tends to compress availability and underpin valuations for established dwellings. The pace of building also trails national figures, pointing to an established urban footprint alongside potential planning constraints. Detached houses constitute the totality of recent building approvals, maintaining a low-density suburban landscape that attracts space-seeking purchasers. With a ratio of approximately 266 people per approval, the local property market demonstrates transitioning development dynamics. Long-term forecasts indicate that Girraween will add 244 residents by 2041, based on the most recent AreaSearch quarterly update. If construction continues at its current trajectory, residential building activity could lag underlying population increases, thereby tightening market conditions, escalating competition among buyers, and reinforcing price gains.

1,170 residents of Girraween (NT) are employed, from a labour force of 1,188. Unemployment sits at 1.5%, with participation at 76.9%. 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, so in an area growing as fast as this one it understates the likely rise in local jobs. The working-day population is estimated at 1,292, about 69% 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
Girraween maintains an evenly distributed labour market encompassing both blue and white collar positions, supported by substantial representation across essential service sectors. Data aggregated by AreaSearch reveals an unemployment rate of 1.5% alongside a 0.8% annual expansion in local employment. As of March 2026, 1,170 residents are employed, with unemployment tracking 1.9% below the 3.5% rate recorded across Greater Darwin. Labour force participation remains solid at 76.9%, exceeding the 72.9% benchmark for Greater Darwin. Furthermore, Census records indicate that 4.3% of the workforce operated from home, though historical Covid-19 lockdown restrictions should be considered.
The primary employment sectors among local workers comprise public administration & safety, construction, and health care & social assistance. Workforce concentration is particularly pronounced in construction, where local participation reaches 1.8 times the regional proportion. In contrast, health care & social assistance accounts for 8.1% of local employment against a regional share of 14.2%. Comparing the Census count of locally based jobs against the resident workforce suggests the suburb is predominantly residential with limited on-site employment opportunities. Analysis of ABS and SALM figures over the prior 12-month period shows 0.8% employment growth matched by a 0.8% expansion in the labour force, leaving the unemployment level virtually unchanged. This performance diverges from Greater Darwin, where employment rose 0.4%, the labour pool increased 0.8%, and unemployment climbed by 0.3 percentage points. Forward-looking projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 outline national employment growth of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though industry trajectories vary considerably. Applying these sector-specific forecasts to Girraween's industry profile yields an estimated employment rise of 5.8% over five years and 12.1% over ten years (calculated as a simple weighted extrapolation for indicative analysis, without incorporating localized 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 — 5 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (1,668 at the 2021 Census → 1,879 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 (SAL70110). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
