DemographicsPopulation Growth in Hammondville

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

Hammondville has an estimated 3,672 residents. That puts 2,018 residents on each square kilometre. Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.

Detail

According to investigations of ABS demographic updates for the wider region, alongside recent address points verified by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Hammondville has a population projected at approximately 3,672 in May 2026. This represents a decline of 19 people (0.5%) relative to the 2021 Census, which counted 3,691 residents. This shift is calculated from a resident population of 3,664, determined by AreaSearch through analysing the most recent ABS ERP statistics (June 2025) plus an additional 6 verified new addresses since the Census. Such a population size results in a density of 2,017 persons per square kilometer, which exceeds the typical ratio across national regions analyzed by AreaSearch.

In recent times, population gains were mostly driven by overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 59.0% of the overall increase. AreaSearch applies demographic projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for individual SA2 units, published in 2024 with a 2022 baseline. For any SA2 regions lacking this coverage, projections from the NSW State Government at the SA2 level are adopted, which were published in 2022 with a 2021 baseline. Age-specific growth rates derived from these figures are also applied across all localities for the period spanning 2032 to 2041. Based on these anticipated demographic transitions, the suburb of Hammondville is projected to experience population growth that exceeds the national median, with an expected rise of 750 persons by 2041 under consolidated SA2-level forecasts, representing an expansion of 20.2% over the 16 years.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Hammondville

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

43 new dwellings have been approved in Hammondville over the past five years, an average of 8 a year. That is 2.3 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 1, 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

Based on AreaSearch research into ABS building approvals mapped from statistical regions, Hammondville has recorded an average of roughly 8 new home approvals annually, with a total of 43 residential approvals during the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25) and one approval recorded so far in FY-26. Because the local population has decreased recently, housing availability has remained sufficient to meet demand, leading to a balanced market environment with plenty of options for purchasers, while new housing builds carry an average development value of $487,000, indicating that builders are focusing on the higher-cost market tier with premium properties.

Furthermore, commercial approvals have reached $55.9 million during this financial year, showing robust local commercial development. In comparison to Greater Sydney, Hammondville experiences far less building activity, running 69.0% below the regional per capita average. This relative undersupply of new builds commonly supports demand and values for existing stock. This construction rate is also below the national average, indicating a mature local market and potentially pointing to planning limitations. New building approvals comprise 60.0% standalone houses and 40.0% townhouses or apartments, indicating a growing selection of medium-density choices that provide opportunities at various price points, spanning standard family homes to cheaper, compact dwellings. The suburb has roughly 916 people for each dwelling approval, which is characteristic of an established market. Future demographic models indicate Hammondville will gain 742 residents by 2041, according to the latest quarterly estimate from AreaSearch. If current building rates do not accelerate, residential supply may fall behind population growth, which is likely to increase buyer competition and support price appreciation.

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 — 6 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (3,691 at the 2021 Census → 3,672 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 (SAL11851). 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 Hammondville 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 Hammondville 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 Hammondville 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.
