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
Lake Munmorah has an estimated 5,165 residents, up from 5,084 at the 2021 Census — a change of 81 people, or 1.6%. That puts 905 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 analysis of demographics compiled from ABS publications and recently validated addresses from AreaSearch following the Census, the suburb of Lake Munmorah has a calculated population of approximately 5,165 as of May 2026. This representing a growth of 81 people (1.6%) relative to the 2021 Census, which registered 5,084 residents. The estimate is derived from the figure of 5,163 residents calculated by AreaSearch based on ABS ERP statistics from June 2025 alongside 5 validated new addresses added after the Census date. This population count results in a density of 904 persons per square kilometer, which aligns closely with typical values observed across places evaluated by AreaSearch.
The 1.6% growth rate since the census places the area within 1.8 percentage points of the SA4 region (3.4%), reflecting competitive population trends. Population gains in the area were mainly driven by overseas migration, which made up about 75.0% of total expansion in recent periods. Projections for the SA2 areas are based on 2024 ABS and Geoscience Australia releases using 2022 as the baseline, supplemented by 2022 NSW State Government SA2 projections with a 2021 baseline for uncovered zones. Future age cohort trends from 2032 to 2041 are also adjusted based on these files. Future demographic expectations indicate a minor contraction, with the suburb of Lake Munmorah projected to decrease by 3 persons by 2041. Conversely, growth is predicted within particular age cohorts, led by the cohort aged 85 and over, which is projected to grow by 234 people.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
41 new dwellings have been approved in Lake Munmorah over the past five years, an average of 8 a year. That is 1.6 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 54, 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 statistical building approvals from the ABS reveals that the suburb of Lake Munmorah has recorded an average of roughly 8 new home approvals each year, totaling 41 residences approved during the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) and 50 so far in FY-26. Amid population decline, this construction volume suggests housing supply is meeting regional demands, presenting buyers with reasonable options, while new homes carry an average estimated value of $221,000—below the regional average—which highlights more affordable options for home buyers. Furthermore, commercial approvals reached $290,000 this financial year, pointing to the area's predominantly residential character.
Compared with Greater Sydney, building activity in the suburb of Lake Munmorah is notably subdued, falling 63.0% below the regional per capita average. This limited development pipeline typically helps sustain valuation levels and demand for established residential properties. The building rate is also lower than national benchmarks, indicating market maturity and potential regulatory or geographic limits on development. The breakdown of new residential projects is 83.0% detached houses and 17.0% medium and high-density formats, maintaining a low-density suburban profile focused on standalone dwellings suited for purchasers seeking space. The ratio of 2063 people in the community per single residential approval underscores a quiet building market. Given that demographic forecasts indicate stable or contracting resident numbers, the suburb of Lake Munmorah is likely to experience reduced pressure on housing demand, which represents an advantage for prospective purchasers.

2,191 residents of Lake Munmorah are employed, from a labour force of 2,304. Unemployment sits at 4.9%, with participation at 52.3%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.5% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 4,256, 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 workforce within the suburb of Lake Munmorah features a diverse blend of professional and manual roles, with notable representation in essential services, an unemployment rate of 4.9%, and an estimated job growth rate of 3.0% over the prior year, based on AreaSearch statistical aggregations. As of March 2026, there are 2,191 employed residents, with the unemployment rate tracking 0.8% higher than the Greater Sydney average of 4.1%, while workforce participation is notably lower at 52.3% compared to 69.1% across the Sydney region. Census figures show a moderate 22.5% of working residents performed their duties from home, though this may reflect the influence of pandemic restrictions.
The primary employment sectors for local workers are health care & social assistance, construction, and retail trade. The workforce shows a strong concentration in the building trades, with an employment share that is 1.8 times the regional level. Conversely, professional & technical roles are underrepresented at 3.8% compared to the regional benchmark of 11.5%. Local job opportunities appear relatively limited when comparing the total Census working population against resident workers. Based on AreaSearch reviews of SALM and ABS records, employment in the suburb of Lake Munmorah grew by 3.0% and the total labour force expanded by 3.6% during the year ending March 2026, leading to a rise in the unemployment rate of 0.6 percentage points. This performance differs from Greater Sydney, which recorded a 1.9% rise in employment, a 1.9% expansion of the workforce, and a marginal decline in unemployment. Longer-term employment prospects can be considered in light of national forecasts released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce structure to model potential employment trends. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rates of change vary by industry. Mapping these projections to the local industry mix indicates that employment for residents of the suburb of Lake Munmorah could rise by 6.5% over five years and 13.5% over ten years.

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 May 2026, not a 2021 count (5,084 at the 2021 Census → 5,165 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 (SAL12262). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
