Llanarth (NSW) has an estimated 2,357 residents, up from 2,302 at the 2021 Census — a change of 55 people, or 2.4%. That puts 962 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 evaluations combining broader regional ABS population updates with post-Census validated addresses, the suburb of Llanarth (NSW) records an estimated population of approximately 2,357 as of Aug 2026. This indicates an expansion of 55 people (2.4%) relative to the 2021 Census, when the count stood at 2,302 people. Such change is deduced from an estimated resident tally of 2,354 generated after examining the latest ABS ERP release from June 2025 alongside 10 validated new addresses added following the Census. The resulting population density is 962 persons per square kilometer, sitting broadly in line with standard figures observed across AreaSearch benchmark locations.
Furthermore, the 2.4% rate of expansion since the 2021 census outpaced the SA4 region (2.3%), establishing the suburb of Llanarth (NSW) as a regional growth outperformer. Natural increase represented the core driver of demographic gains, making up roughly 73.0% of recent population additions. SA2-level projections from ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024 (using 2022 as the base year) are implemented by AreaSearch, supplemented where necessary by NSW State Government SA2 forecasts issued in 2022 (using 2021 as the base year). Projections across age brackets derived from these datasets are applied to cover the 2032 to 2041 period. Looking ahead, population trajectory for the suburb of Llanarth (NSW) is slated to exceed the national non-metropolitan median, with aggregated SA2 figures projecting a rise of 469 persons to 2041, representing a cumulative increase of 19.8% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
Detail
Dwelling construction within Llanarth remains minimal, with building approvals averaging less than 1 per annum (totaling 2 approvals over five years). This subdued pace of development reflects the district's rural character, where residential building activity typically addresses bespoke local requirements rather than broader market demand. Because of the small underlying sample, single building projects have the potential to noticeably shift annual rates and comparative metrics. Residential development volumes in Llanarth track well below the levels seen in Rest of NSW, while also sitting substantially under national benchmarks. Furthermore, recent residential builds consist exclusively of detached houses designed for family living and rural space.
An estimated ratio of 1174 people per approved residential dwelling highlights the locality's quiet and low-volume building landscape.

1,359 residents of Llanarth (NSW) are employed, from a labour force of 1,380. Unemployment sits at 1.5%, with participation at 73.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 1,754, 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
Llanarth is characterized by an educated local workforce, substantial employment in essential service industries, and a minimal jobless rate of 1.5% according to aggregated statistical data from AreaSearch. As of March 2026, employed residents total 1,359, while unemployment sits 2.6% below the 4.1% recorded for Regional NSW. In addition, the local participation rate reaches 73.6%, comfortably exceeding the Regional NSW benchmark of 60.6%. Census figures also indicate that a moderate 15.0% of workers conducted their roles from home, subject to the context of Covid-19 restrictions. Local workers are predominantly engaged across public administration & safety, health care & social assistance, and education & training.
The education & training sector displays particular strength, with local representation reaching 1.6 times the broader regional benchmark. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 1.5% of local employment, compared to the regional proportion of 5.3%. A comparison between Census working figures and resident worker totals suggests that local employment opportunities within the immediate residential community remain limited. AreaSearch assessment of broader ABS and SALM figures indicates that across the 12 months to March 2026, the local workforce contracted by 1.4% while employment dropped by 1.9%, leading to an increase of 0.5 percentage points in the unemployment rate. By comparison, Regional NSW experienced a 0.9% reduction in employment, a 0.4% decline in the labour force, and an unemployment increase of 0.5 percentage points. Future industry labour demand can be evaluated using national forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26. These five- and ten-year models, when mapped to the local industry distribution, project workforce needs. Across Australia, employment is expected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though sectoral rates vary. Applying these projections to the local employment composition suggests growth of 6.3% over five years and 13.5% over ten years (representing a weighted baseline calculation that does not incorporate local population forecasts).

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 — 10 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,302 at the 2021 Census → 2,357 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.
