Sales Detail
Kyogle has an estimated 2,325 residents, up from 2,248 at the 2021 Census — a change of 77 people, or 3.4%. Growth has averaged 0.7% a year over five years. Density is about 77 people per 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 evaluations of ABS demographic updates for the surrounding region alongside newly validated addresses by AreaSearch following the Census, the suburb of Kyogle has an estimated population of approximately 2,325 as of May 2026. This indicates an expansion of 77 individuals (3.4%) compared to the 2,248 people recorded in the 2021 Census. This shift is determined from the resident count of 2,325, calculated by AreaSearch through analysing the June 2025 release of ERP data by the ABS and factoring in 28 validated new addresses since the Census. Such a population size results in a density of 77 persons per square kilometer, indicating ample space for residents and potential for future building.
The 3.4% expansion rate of the suburb of Kyogle since the 2021 census outpaced the SA3 area, which registered no growth, establishing the suburb as a leader in regional growth. The main driver of population gains in recent times was overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 51.0% of the total increase. For demographic forecasts, AreaSearch uses SA2 projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024 using 2022 as the baseline. In instances where SA2 regions lack this coverage, projections from the NSW State Government released in 2022 using 2021 as the baseline are applied. Demographic growth by age brackets derived from these datasets is applied across all sectors for the years 2032 to 2041. Looking at future demographic trends, these calculations suggest a reduction in the total population of the suburb of Kyogle, with a projected loss of 213 residents by 2041. Nonetheless, some age brackets are expected to grow, particularly those aged 85 and over, which is estimated to increase by 71 residents. The age section provides further details.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
45 new dwellings have been approved in Kyogle over the past five years, an average of 9 a year. That places the area in the 51st percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 4 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 8, broadly in line with 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
According to AreaSearch's evaluation of ABS building approval figures distributed from regional data, Kyogle has seen roughly 9 residential properties approved for construction each year, amounting to a total of 45 projected dwellings over the previous 5 financial years. Thus far during FY-26, 8 approvals have been documented. With an average of 1.9 additional occupants per year per new residence entering the market over the 5 financial years spanning FY-21 to FY-25, construction rates and local demand seem closely aligned, resulting in stable market dynamics. This has adjusted to 1.4 individuals per home over the previous 2 financial years, pointing to a healthier equilibrium between building rates and demand.
Newly approved dwellings carry an average construction cost of $571,000, which highlights that builders are prioritizing high-end, premium properties. Furthermore, $1.5 million in non-residential building approvals has been logged during this financial year, highlighting that development is mostly focused on housing. In comparison to the Rest of NSW, Kyogle displays a slightly higher rate of building activity, measuring 38.0% higher than the regional per-capita average over the 5 year timeframe. This provides home buyers with adequate options while supporting demand for existing homes. Recent building projects consist of 82.0% detached houses and 18.0% multi-unit or medium-to-high density structures, which preserves the traditional low-density landscape and emphasizes spacious properties for families. With approximately 145 individuals for every building approval, Kyogle exhibits the spatial profile of a low-density community. As demographic projections point to stable or decreasing resident numbers, Kyogle is likely to face reduced demand for new housing, which presents advantageous buying opportunities.

855 residents of Kyogle are employed, from a labour force of 922. Unemployment sits at 7.2%, with participation at 48.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.4% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 1,907, about 82% 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 labor market in Kyogle features a diverse mix of professional and manual occupations, with a strong presence of essential service industries, an unemployment rate of 7.2%, and an estimated job growth of 2.9% over the preceding year, according to regional data compiled by AreaSearch. In March 2026, the employed population stood at 855 individuals, while the local jobless rate sat 3.1% higher than the Regional NSW rate of 4.1%, indicating potential for betterment. Additionally, the labor force participation rate is notably low at 48.7%, compared to 60.6% for Regional NSW.
Census feedback indicated that only 10.5% of the local workforce operated from home, though this figure may have been influenced by COVID-19 restrictions. Local jobs are primarily clustered in health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction. The concentration of jobs in health care & social assistance is especially prominent, tracking at 1.3 times the regional standard. Conversely, public administration & safety accounts for only 5.0% of the workforce, which is lower than the 7.5% seen across Regional NSW. A comparison between the census-recorded local workforce and the total number of working residents suggests that the immediate vicinity has a relatively small pool of local jobs. According to AreaSearch's analysis of SALM and ABS figures aggregated from regional areas, the year ending March 2026 saw a 2.9% rise in employment alongside a 3.9% expansion of the labor pool, leading to a 0.8 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. In contrast, Regional NSW registered a 0.9% drop in employment and a 0.4% contraction in the labor force, with its unemployment rate climbing by 0.5 percentage points. National labor projections published by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 provide a baseline for future workforce trends in Kyogle. These five-year and ten-year estimates have been applied to local data to project future growth. While total employment across the country is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rate of growth varies widely by sector. Aligning these industry trends with the local workforce structure indicates that employment in Kyogle could rise by 6.4% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though this is a basic weight-based model and does not factor in specific local demographic shifts.

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 — 28 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (2,248 at the 2021 Census → 2,325 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.
