Detail
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Kilmore has an estimated count of around 10,254 residents, based on AreaSearch's evaluation of regional ABS releases alongside post-Census validated address counts. This represents an addition of 1,047 people (11.4%) relative to the 2021 Census tally of 9,207 people. This total builds upon an ERP figure of 10,167 from the ABS release of June 2025 together with 341 validated new addresses confirmed thereafter. The suburb of Kilmore maintains a population density of 176 persons per square kilometer, preserving ample open space while accommodating prospective urban expansion.
Its 11.4% expansion since the 2021 census outstripped the SA4 region (3.1%) and the Rest of Vic., establishing the area as a regional growth frontrunner. Interstate migration served as the foremost growth engine by generating approximately 52.0% of recent population additions, alongside positive contributions from natural growth and overseas arrivals. SA2 geographic projections produced in 2024 by ABS/Geoscience Australia utilizing a 2022 baseline underpin the local modelling for the suburb of Kilmore, complemented where necessary by 2023 VIC State Government LGA-level forecasts converted via weighted aggregation. Age-specific trajectories derived through this framework are extended across all locations for the years 2032 to 2041. Future demographic projections place the suburb of Kilmore among the top 10 percent of Australian non-metropolitan districts for expansion, with aggregated SA2 figures projecting an influx of 6,291 persons by 2041, representing a cumulative rise of 60.5% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
519 new dwellings have been approved in Kilmore over the past five years, an average of 103 a year. That places the area in the 88th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 10 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 121 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 88% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 179, 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
ABS building approval statistics compiled across statistical areas show Kilmore recording an annual rate of approximately 103 residential building approvals, representing an aggregate of 519 homes across the past 5 financial years. In FY-25 to date, 179 approvals have been logged. The influx of new residents has averaged 1.9 people per year for every completed dwelling over the past 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), maintaining an equilibrium between demand and construction volumes while new dwellings reflect an average construction value of $404,000. Additionally, commercial development approvals totaling $20.0 million have been lodged during this financial year, pointing to steady non-residential development.
Dwelling approval volumes on a per-capita basis in Kilmore exceed the Rest of Vic. by 52.0%, broadening residential options for prospective purchasers. This elevated building activity sits considerably above the national benchmark, reflecting strong interest from property developers. Detached houses account for 88.0% of newly approved structures while attached dwellings comprise 12.0%, reinforcing low-density residential characteristics favored by buyers seeking spacious homes. The ratio currently sits at roughly 71 people per dwelling approval, underscoring an expanding residential sector. Demographic projections indicate an increase of 6,204 residents across Kilmore leading up to 2041 relative to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly release. If residential construction continues at its current pace, future dwelling delivery may fail to match population influx, potentially heightening competition for property and placing upward pressure on local asset values.

4,907 residents of Kilmore are employed, from a labour force of 5,124. Unemployment sits at 4.2%, with participation at 62.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.0% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 8,202, about 80% 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
Statistical area figures aggregated by AreaSearch indicate an unemployment rate of 4.2% in Kilmore, supported by a workforce distributed across white-collar, blue-collar, and essential community service roles. There are 4,907 employed local residents as of March 2026, while the jobless rate sits 0.6% higher than the 3.7% recorded across Regional Vic., alongside a labour force participation rate aligning with the 61.1% seen in Regional Vic.. Census data revealed that 17.6% of local workers performed their duties from home, though this figure was influenced by prevailing Covid-19 restrictions. The primary employment fields for local residents comprise construction, health care & social assistance, as well as education & training.
The local economy features a pronounced concentration of construction roles, running at 1.7 times the regional benchmark. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing claims an under-indexed share, employing 1.5% of local workers versus 7.5% in Regional Vic.. Comparing resident worker figures against local workplace tallies suggests that local commercial job generation within the area remains relatively constrained. According to SALM and ABS figures aggregated by AreaSearch, both the overall labour pool and total employment in Kilmore fell by 1.4% during the 12 months to March 2026, leaving the unemployment rate largely unchanged. In comparison, Regional Vic. saw employment contract by 0.1% and the labour force reduce by 0.3%, with the jobless rate dropping by 0.2 percentage points. Forward-looking labour 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 outcomes vary substantially by sector. When applied to Kilmore's industry composition, these national trends suggest local employment expansion of 6.0% across five years and 12.7% over ten years (a weighted structural extrapolation that excludes local demographic 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 — 341 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (9,207 at the 2021 Census → 10,254 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 (SAL21352). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
