Sales Detail
Lavington has an estimated 13,437 residents, up from 13,073 at the 2021 Census — a change of 364 people, or 2.8%. 307 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. That puts 909 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 AreaSearch's evaluation of broader ABS demographic releases alongside new address validations since the Census, the suburb of Lavington records a population count of approximately 13,437 as of Aug 2026. Relative to the 13,073 people documented at the 2021 Census, this represents a net expansion of 364 people (2.8%). That estimate draws on an ERP benchmark of 13,290 residents determined by AreaSearch following the ABS June 2025 release, combined with 307 validated new addresses established after the Census date. Accordingly, the suburb of Lavington has a population density of 909 persons per square kilometer, aligning closely with typical AreaSearch regional benchmarks.
While the Rest of NSW achieved 5.1% growth, the suburb of Lavington expanded by 2.8% post-census—trailing by just 2.3 percentage points and highlighting robust baseline momentum. Inbound overseas migration served as the principal demographic engine, accounting for roughly 63.0% of recent population additions. Projections generated by ABS/Geoscience Australia (issued in 2024 with 2022 as the base year) are adopted by AreaSearch across SA2 geographies, supplemented by 2022 NSW State Government releases (using 2021 as the base year) wherever coverage gaps occur. Age-bracket trajectory adjustments from these models are incorporated across 2032 to 2041. Moving forward, the suburb of Lavington is slated for above-median non-metropolitan growth, with combined SA2 models anticipating an influx of 2,028 persons to 2041, culminating in an overall 14.0% increase across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
190 new dwellings have been approved in Lavington over the past five years, an average of 38 a year. That is 2.7 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 36 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 78% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 60, 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
An assessment of ABS building approval allocations indicates that residential planning approvals in the area average approximately 38 dwellings annually, generating roughly 190 homes over the preceding 5 financial years. In FY-25 to date, 60 approvals have been documented. Between FY-21 and FY-25, the local intake averaged 1.2 new residents per approved dwelling each year, maintaining an equilibrium between demand and construction volume while average anticipated construction cost per dwelling sits at $415,000. Meanwhile, commercial construction approvals have reached $9.2 million this financial year, underscoring strong residential fundamentals. Per capita residential building volumes remain subdued compared to the Rest of NSW, lagging regional norms by 59.0%.
Although construction activity has seen recent acceleration, such constrained supply typically puts upward pressure on established asset values. Output also trails national benchmarks, reflecting an established urban fabric and possible planning constraints. Of all new residential building activity, detached houses account for 78.0% and attached dwellings represent 22.0%, reinforcing the low-density landscape favoured by buyers seeking space. Currently, the market averages about 244 people per dwelling approval, demonstrating its low-density nature. Based on AreaSearch's latest quarterly estimates, the area is projected to absorb 1,881 residents through to 2041. Should current construction tempos persist, dwelling additions could fall short of demographic expansion, intensifying purchaser competition and underpinning capital appreciation.

The project adds 110 overnight beds, a state-of-the-art Intensive Care Unit, new operating theatres including a hybrid theatre, and a 32-bed mental health unit. Construction on the Northeast Building began in late 2025 by Hansen Yuncken, with main works for the Clinical Services Building progressing through 2026.
6,397 residents of Lavington are employed, from a labour force of 6,965. Unemployment sits at 8.2%, with participation at 63.0%. 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 11,462, about 85% 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 labour market features a mix of white-collar and blue-collar professions, with significant representation across essential services and an unemployment rate of 8.2%, per aggregated statistical boundaries from AreaSearch. As of March 2026, employed locals number 6,397, while the jobless rate sits 4.1% above the Regional NSW benchmark of 4.1%, indicating scope for improvement. Labour force participation stands at 63.0%, compared with 60.6% across Regional NSW. Census findings indicate that 6.7% of employed residents performed their duties from home, though pandemic restrictions during that period must be noted. Leading fields of resident employment encompass health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction.
Notably, manufacturing demonstrates strong local concentration, employing personnel at 1.7 times the broader regional proportion. By contrast, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 1.1% of employment, versus 5.3% regionally. Given the disparity between resident workers and Census workplace tallies, this predominantly residential locality provides relatively few internal employment positions. According to AreaSearch's compilation of ABS and SALM figures across regional boundaries, the 12 months to March 2026 saw the local labour pool shrink by 4.1% and total employment fall by 6.1%, driving a 2.0 percentage points increase in the jobless rate. Over the identical timeframe across Regional NSW, overall employment contracted by 0.9%, the labour force declined by 0.4%, and unemployment climbed 0.5 percentage points. Future demand trends may be gauged using Jobs and Skills Australia's Mar-26 national workforce outlooks, which project sector-by-sector hiring trajectories over five and ten-year horizons. Nationally, employment is anticipated to climb 6.6% across five years and 13.7% across ten years, with marked variance between industries. Applying these sector patterns to the local employment base indicates prospective job growth of 6.2% over five years and 13.1% over ten years (representing an illustrative weighting without localized population adjustments).

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 — 307 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (13,073 at the 2021 Census → 13,437 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 (SAL12296). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
