DemographicsPopulation Growth in Narrogin

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

Narrogin has an estimated 4,102 residents, up from 3,927 at the 2021 Census — a change of 175 people, or 4.5%. That puts 312 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

Based on analysis of ABS population updates for the broader area, and new addresses validated by AreaSearch since the Census the suburb of Narrogin has an estimated resident population of approximately 4,102 as of May 2026. This indicates a growth of 175 individuals (4.5%) from the 2021 Census, which registered 3,927 people. The calculation is based on a resident population of 4,102, which AreaSearch computed using the latest ABS ERP release (June 2025) and 4 validated new addresses added since the Census. This count translates to a density of 312 persons per square kilometer, indicating low-density living and potential room for future expansions.

The suburb of Narrogin's 4.5% expansion since the Census is within 1.1 percentage points of the broader SA3 area (5.6%), showing solid growth dynamics. Over the recent period, population increases were primarily driven by overseas migration, which served as almost the exclusive driver of population gains. For each SA2 area, AreaSearch adopts the projections released in 2024 by the ABS and Geoscience Australia, using 2022 as the base year. For SA2 areas without direct coverage, and to calculate development post-2032, growth rates by age cohort from the latest ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023, based on 2022 numbers) are applied. Demographically, the suburb of Narrogin is projected to experience population growth above the median for non-metropolitan Australia, with the local population expected to expand by 611 persons to 2041 under aggregated SA2-level forecasts, representing a total increase of 14.9% across the 16 years.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Narrogin

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

23 new dwellings have been approved in Narrogin over the past five years, an average of 4 a year. That is 1.1 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 4, broadly in line with 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

AreaSearch's evaluation of ABS building approvals allocated from statistical areas shows that Narrogin averages about 4 new home approvals annually, with an estimated total of 23 homes approved over the last 5 financial years. Thus far in FY-26, 4 approvals have been documented. Since the population has shrunk recently, housing supply has remained sufficient for local demand, resulting in a balanced market with options for buyers, and newly built properties average a value of $200,000—which is below regional averages—providing more affordable entry points for purchasers. Furthermore, commercial approvals totaling $104,000 have been logged during this financial year, pointing to a market that is overwhelmingly residential.

In comparison to the Rest of WA, Narrogin has significantly lower building volumes (60.0% below the regional per capita average). This limited supply of new dwellings generally supports demand and prices for established properties, even though building rates have quickened recently. The building activity is also below national levels, showing a mature market and suggesting potential developmental hurdles. New builds consist of 83.0% detached houses and 17.0% semi-detached properties or apartments, which preserves the traditional low-density layout and emphasizes spacious family dwellings. Having 588 people in the community per single home approval highlights the quiet and low-key building environment. Population projections suggest Narrogin will add 611 residents by 2041 (calculated from the latest quarterly estimate by AreaSearch). At current construction rates, new housing may not keep pace with this population increase, which could intensify competition among buyers and put upward pressure on prices.

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 — 4 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (3,927 at the 2021 Census → 4,102 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 (SAL51093). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.

Common questions about this page

How do Narrogin suburb boundaries differ from Statistical Areas?
This page uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries (suburb-style geography). SAL represents commonly-known suburb names used in addresses, while Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census/statistical reporting. Even when sharing the same name, SAL and SA2 boundaries often cover different geographic areas with different populations.
Where does the data on this Narrogin page come from?
AreaSearch compiles this page from official and industry sources — including ABS, Geoscience Australia, Valuer General, Provider directories, DEWR, JSA, State Transport Departments and ACARA — then aggregates them to the boundary shown and calculates the rankings, growth rates and benchmarks itself. Property sales come from the state valuation authority, rents from state rental bond lodgements, development applications from council and state planning portals, school data from ACARA, and public transport from state transport departments.
Is the Narrogin data on this page just from the 2021 Census?
No. Most of this page is maintained well beyond the Census. Sourced entirely from current releases: development & approvals (May 2026), property sales & rents (Aug 2026), infrastructure projects (May 2026) and services & amenities (Jul 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to May 2026), age profile (to May 2026), employment (to Mar 2026), income (to FY 2023), education (to Jul 2026), transport (to Jul 2026) and health (to 2024). Population and age cohorts in particular are re-based to the latest ABS Estimated Resident Population rather than left at 2021 counts. Only housing, households and cultural diversity remain wholly Census-based, because no more current small-area dataset exists for those measures.
