Sales Detail
Naracoorte has an estimated 6,394 residents, up from 6,211 at the 2021 Census — a change of 183 people, or 2.9%. Density is about 56 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 statistical assessments of regional population updates from the ABS and fresh address validations completed by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Naracoorte has a population estimated at 6,394 in May 2026. This represents a gain of 183 individuals (2.9%) from the 6,211 residents recorded in the 2021 Census. This adjustment is derived from the resident population of 6,375 calculated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 release of ERP figures, combined with an additional 78 validated new addresses confirmed since the Census. Such population numbers translate to a density of 56 persons per square kilometer, which ensures residents have substantial space.
The 2.9% post-census growth rate for the suburb of Naracoorte is within 2.0 percentage points of the broader SA3 region (4.9%), indicating strong relative growth indicators. Expansion in the population was mostly driven by arrivals from overseas, who made up roughly 87.0% of the total population gains in recent times. AreaSearch incorporates regional demographic projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024, utilizing 2022 as its baseline. For locations omitted from this dataset and for projections past 2032, regional and LGA projections by age bracket published by the SA State Government in 2023 (drawn from 2021 numbers) are utilized, adjusted via a weighted aggregation method of population growth from LGA to SA2 divisions. Factoring in these demographic adjustments, projections indicate a downward trend in the total resident count, with a reduction of 23 individuals by 2041 under this approach. Conversely, specific age groups are set to expand, particularly those aged 85 and over, which is projected to grow by 194 individuals. Refer to the age section for further information.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
109 new dwellings have been approved in Naracoorte over the past five years, an average of 21 a year. That is 3.4 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 10, well below 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 building approval figures from the ABS adjusted from local statistical areas by AreaSearch, the suburb of Naracoorte averages approximately 21 residential approvals annually. This includes an estimated 109 homes approved over the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, alongside 10 approvals during the current FY-26 period. Given an average of only 0.1 new residents per approved home over the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, local housing supply matches or exceeds demand, offering buyers more options while supporting faster population growth than projected. Approved dwellings carry an average construction value of $398,000, suggesting developers are concentrating on the upper end of the housing market with premium offerings.
Furthermore, commercial approvals totaling $16.4 million have been documented in the current financial year, representing moderate commercial investment. Compared to the Rest of SA, the rate of new residential approvals per resident in the suburb of Naracoorte is roughly three-quarters of the regional level, placing it in the 48th percentile of all analyzed locations across the country, which translates to somewhat restricted purchasing options and increased demand for existing properties. This volume is also below the countrywide average, reflecting the established status of the local market and possible planning constraints. Meanwhile, recent building approvals have consisted entirely of detached houses, preserving the classic low-density lifestyle of the area with a focus on spacious family residences. With roughly 344 people for every approval, the suburb of Naracoorte remains a low-density locality. Given that the local population is projected to remain steady or contract, the suburb of Naracoorte should experience less pressure on its housing market, which may open up opportunities for prospective buyers.

Frequently Asked Questions - Infrastructure
Moyhall Road Reconstruction
Reconstruction of pavement and shoulders with new drainage and a full-width spray-sealed surface to address pavement failure, reduce maintenance costs, and improve road safety. Jointly funded with Naracoorte Lucindale Council under the Roads to Recovery Program.
North Parklands Development
A withdrawn unsolicited proposal for a $250 million mixed-use masterplanned community on a 197-hectare State Government-owned site north of Naracoorte. Developer Robert Moore of ELM Property envisioned 500 residential allotments around the Naracoorte Golf Course, a convention centre, motel-style serviced suites, aged care facilities, and a retirement village. Following overwhelming community opposition - 64.4% of nearly 400 survey respondents opposed any development - Naracoorte Lucindale Council voted against the proposal in August 2022 and the developer withdrew.As of 2026, the site remains a dedicated nature park and community space. No active development applications exist; Naracoorte Lucindale Council CEO Trevor Smart confirmed in November 2024 that a nearby subdivision approval was entirely separate and did not affect the North Parklands.
Naracoorte Early Learning and Childcare Centre
Originally proposed as a workers' accommodation facility, the 1.68ha former Naracoorte TAFE site was repurposed for a $2 million early learning and childcare centre for 60 children. Announced in May 2024 by developer Jrod Pty Ltd with a $500,000 state government grant, construction was to begin in late 2024. As of early 2026, the project has stalled completely after a private Adelaide-based childcare provider withdrew their partnership, leaving the development in limbo with no construction started.

3,447 residents of Naracoorte are employed, from a labour force of 3,556. Unemployment sits at 3.1%, with participation at 67.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 4.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Naracoorte maintains a balanced workforce spanning white and blue collar employment, with manufacturing and industrial sectors strongly represented, an unemployment rate of only 3.1%, and 2.8% in estimated employment growth over the past year, based on AreaSearch aggregation of statistical area data. As of March 2026, 3,447 residents are in work while the unemployment rate is 2.4% below Regional SA's rate of 5.5%, and workforce participation is well beyond standard (67.0% compared to Regional SA's 58.4%). Based on Census responses, a low 4.6% of residents were found to work from home, though Covid-19 lockdown impacts should be considered.
Primary employment sectors for local residents include manufacturing, agriculture, forestry & fishing, and retail trade. The suburb of Naracoorte displays a strong concentration in manufacturing jobs, with an employment share 1.9 times the regional average. Conversely, health care & social assistance is underrepresented, employing only 10.7% of local workers compared to 13.9% across Regional SA. Although local jobs are available, census comparisons between the working population and resident numbers suggest a significant portion of the workforce travels outside the area for employment. Based on AreaSearch calculations of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated from regional data, the recent 12-month period experienced a job growth of 2.8% alongside a 3.8% increase in the labor force, which led to a 0.9 percentage point rise in the unemployment rate. This differs from Regional SA, which saw a 1.2% rise in employment, a 2.6% increase in the labor force, and a 1.4 percentage point rise in unemployment. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia published in May-25 provide further context for potential local demand. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce distribution to project future trends. While national employment is expected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates vary widely by sector. Applying these national industry rates to the job profile of the suburb of Naracoorte suggests local employment could rise by 4.8% over five years and 11.2% over ten years, though this is a simple weighted extrapolation and does not account for local population changes.

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 — 78 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (6,211 at the 2021 Census → 6,394 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 (SAL41011). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
