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.

Sales Detail
Hillbank has an estimated 5,158 residents, up from 5,013 at the 2021 Census — a change of 145 people, or 2.9%. Growth has averaged 0.5% a year over five years. That puts 1,632 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 the latest calculations from AreaSearch using census updates from the ABS and fresh address verification, the population of the suburb of Hillbank stands at roughly 5,158 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 145 people (2.9%) from the 2021 Census, when the count was 5,013 individuals. The estimate is drawn from a resident figure of 5,138, determined by AreaSearch through the ABS ERP publication from June 2025 alongside a single validated new address recorded since the census. The local density reaches 1,632 persons per square kilometer, exceeding the typical ratio observed across Australia.
The primary engine of this population change was overseas arrivals, which accounted for approximately 68.0% of the total demographic expansion. Projections for the SA2 boundary are sourced from 2024 ABS and Geoscience Australia publications using 2022 as a starting point. For districts without these figures, or for periods past 2032, calculations apply age-bracket projections from the South Australian government released in 2023 based on 2021 records, adapted by aggregating growth from municipal to local levels. Looking ahead, the suburb of Hillbank is on track for substantial expansion, placing it in the top quarter of the nation, with forecasts pointing to an increase of 1,503 persons by 2041, which translates to a total rise of 28.8% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
22 new dwellings have been approved in Hillbank over the past five years, an average of 4 a year. That is 0.9 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 29, running ahead of 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
Analysis of ABS building approvals allocated to the local level indicates that Hillbank averages approximately 4 residential consents annually, with a total of 22 homes approved over the preceding 5 financial years. Thus far in FY-26, there have been 27 residential approvals registered. Because the area has averaged 5.5 new occupants for each completed residence over the 5 financial years spanning FY-21 to FY-25, demand is running far ahead of supply, creating tighter market conditions and pushing up purchase costs, while the average construction value for new dwellings stands at $281,000.
Hillbank displays far less construction activity than Greater Adelaide. While this lack of new housing options generally boosts demand and supports pricing for existing properties, construction rates have risen of late. The volume of approvals also sits below the national benchmark, reflecting how established the suburb is and pointing to possible planning constraints. Additionally, recent building completions consist entirely of detached houses, preserving the classic low-density layout that draws families looking for space. With roughly 685 people per approval, the area shows its mature profile. Future estimates suggest Hillbank will add 1,483 occupants by 2041, according to the latest quarterly figures from AreaSearch. If current building rates persist, the addition of new dwellings may fall short of the incoming population, potentially intensifying buyer competition and reinforcing upward price trends.

2,770 residents of Hillbank are employed, from a labour force of 2,933. Unemployment sits at 5.6%, with participation at 70.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.2% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 3,809, about 74% 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 workforce is split evenly between manual and professional occupations, with a notable presence in public service jobs, an unemployment rate of 5.6%, and estimated annual jobs growth of 0.9%, based on regional employment aggregates. In March 2026, the working population stood at 2,770, with joblessness running 1.7% higher than the Greater Adelaide level of 3.8%. Labor force participation is relatively typical, sitting at 70.6% compared to 66.6% across Greater Adelaide. Census statistics show that only 6.7% of employees worked from home, though this figure was likely affected by pandemic restrictions.
Local jobs are heavily concentrated in the fields of healthcare and social assistance, retail, and construction. The building sector represents a major area of local specialization, employing 1.3 times the regional average. Conversely, professional and technical services account for only 4.5% of the local workforce, trailing the Greater Adelaide benchmark of 7.3%. Because of the mismatch between the size of the working population and local jobs, this residential area seems to provide few employment options within its own borders. Based on SALM and ABS statistics aggregated for the year ending March 2026, the count of employed residents rose by 0.9% and the total labor force expanded by 1.6%, leading to a rise in the unemployment rate of 0.6 percentage points. In contrast, Greater Adelaide recorded a 4.2% lift in employment, a 4.0% increase in the labor force, and a drop in unemployment of 0.2 percentage points. Longer-term trends can be interpreted from the national forecasts released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25. These five and ten-year predictions have been compared with the local industry profile to estimate future changes. Nationwide, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, but rates will vary widely across fields. Applying these industry projections to the local workforce composition suggests local jobs will rise by 6.2% over five years and 13.1% over ten years, assuming a simple weighted projection based on industry composition rather than local demographic growth.

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 — 1 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (5,013 at the 2021 Census → 5,158 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 (SAL40591). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
