Manilla has an estimated 2,527 residents, up from 2,386 at the 2021 Census — a change of 141 people, or 5.9%. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 66.0% of that increase. Density is about 36 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
Based on assessment of ABS demographic adjustments for the wider region and new locations verified by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Manilla holds a population of roughly 2,527 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 141 individuals (5.9%) from the 2021 Census, which documented a population of 2,386 residents. The change is calculated from a resident base of 2,474, estimated by AreaSearch following analysis of the most recent ERP publication by the ABS (June 2025) along with 22 validated new addresses since the Census date. This size of population translates to a density of 35 persons per square kilometer, which ensures a high amount of room for residents.
The 5.9% expansion rate since the 2021 census was higher than the SA4 region (3.6%) as well as the Rest of NSW, positioning the suburb of Manilla as a regional growth leader. The expansion of the suburb of Manilla was chiefly driven by migration from other states, which accounted for roughly 66.0% of the population increase in recent times, though other elements such as migration from abroad and natural increase also made positive contributions. AreaSearch utilizes ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 unit, which were published in 2024 with a base year of 2022. For any SA2 zones lacking this coverage, projections from the NSW State Government at the SA2 level are used, published in 2022 with a base year of 2021. Proportional shifts by age category from these datasets are applied to all areas for the timeframe 2032 to 2041. Looking at future demographic trends, expansion exceeding the national non-metropolitan median is anticipated, with the suburb of Manilla projected to add 333 individuals by 2041 based on compiled SA2 projections, showing an 11.1% total expansion over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
24 new dwellings have been approved in Manilla over the past five years, an average of 4 a year. That is 2.0 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 10, 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
According to AreaSearch's review of ABS residential construction approvals distributed from statistical geographic units, Manilla has averaged approximately 4 new home approvals annually, resulting in a total of 24 dwellings over the past 5 financial years. Thus far in FY-26, 10 approvals have been documented. With an average of only 0.6 new residents per year arriving for each new dwelling over the past 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), supply matches or exceeds local demand, giving purchasers more choices while enabling population expansion above projected figures, with new houses constructed at an average cost of $390,000.
Additionally, $1.0 million in commercial project approvals was registered this financial year, showing minimal commercial building activity. Relative to Rest of NSW, Manilla exhibits far lower building activity (58.0% below the regional per capita average). This shortage of new housing generally supports demand and values for existing stock. This rate is also below the nationwide average, reflecting the established character of the area and indicating possible zoning constraints. New construction is split between 60.0% detached homes and 40.0% attached residences, with a rising proportion of townhouses and units providing options across diverse price levels, from family residences to cheaper compact homes. This is a clear departure from the area's current housing stock (which stands at 95.0% houses), indicating a decline in developable land while reflecting changing lifestyles and the demand for more diverse, cost-effective residential options. The calculated ratio of 448 people per building approval highlights this quiet, low-intensity construction market. Demographic projections indicate Manilla will add 280 residents up to 2041 (starting from the most recent AreaSearch quarterly projection). If current construction volumes persist, housing supply could fall behind demographic growth, which will likely heighten purchaser competition and support price appreciation.

1,088 residents of Manilla are employed, from a labour force of 1,141. Unemployment sits at 4.6%, with participation at 55.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 1,983, about 78% 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
Manilla has a balanced labor market split between white and blue collar jobs, with a solid presence of essential service industries and a jobless rate of 4.6%, according to AreaSearch aggregations of regional data. In March 2026, 1,088 residents were employed, while the jobless rate was 0.5% higher than the Regional NSW benchmark of 4.1%, and labor force participation was notably lower (55.5% versus Regional NSW's 60.6%). Census figures indicate that a low 8.9% of workers operated from home, though the influence of Covid-19 restrictions must be kept in mind.
The primary employment sectors for local workers are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and education & training. The local area displays a notable concentration in the mining sector, with its employment share reaching 2.5 times the regional proportion. On the other hand, professional & technical services are underrepresented at 2.0% compared to the regional baseline of 5.1%. The local economy appears to provide few job openings within the area, as shown by comparing the Census working population against the resident workforce. According to AreaSearch's evaluation of SALM and ABS statistics compiled from broader geographic areas, the 12-month timeframe experienced a 2.9% reduction in the workforce alongside a 5.4% drop in employment, causing the unemployment rate to climb by 2.5 percentage points. In contrast, Regional NSW experienced a 0.9% drop in employment, a 0.4% contraction in the workforce, and a 0.5 percentage point rise in unemployment. Long-term national employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia dated May-25 offer additional context on future demand in Manilla. These estimates, spanning five and ten-year horizons, have been matched with the local job profile to project future growth. While nationwide employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, expansion rates vary widely across industry categories. Projecting these industry-specific trends onto the local workforce mix suggests employment in Manilla should grow by 5.9% over five years and 12.8% over ten years (note that this is a basic weighted projection for visualization and does not incorporate local population forecasts).

Frequently Asked Questions - Diversity
The median resident of Manilla is 48, older than 88% of areas nationally. 19.8% of residents are aged 15 to 34. Age cohorts are not raw Census counts: the Census split is re-based to the latest ABS population estimates and state 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 — 22 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (2,386 at the 2021 Census → 2,527 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.
