This analysis uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, which can materially differ from Statistical Areas (SA2) even when sharing the same name.
SAL boundaries are defined by Australia Post and the Australian Bureau of Statistics to represent commonly-known suburb names used in postal addresses.
Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census data collection and may combine multiple suburbs or use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Sales Detail
North Albury has an estimated 6,367 residents, up from 6,232 at the 2021 Census — a change of 135 people, or 2.2%. That puts 1,085 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 reviews of ABS demographic updates for the wider region and fresh addresses confirmed by AreaSearch after the Census, the resident count for the suburb of North Albury is calculated to be approximately 6,367 as of May 2026. This represents an expansion of 135 residents (2.2%) compared to the 2021 Census, which documented a population of 6,232 individuals. The variation is derived from a resident headcount of 6,293, calculated by AreaSearch using the latest ABS ERP release (June 2025) along with an extra 27 confirmed new addresses since the Census date.
This population size corresponds to a density of 1,084 persons per square kilometer, which aligns closely with typical averages recorded across areas evaluated by AreaSearch. The 2.2% demographic growth since the census places the suburb of North Albury within 2.7 percentage points of the Rest of NSW (4.9%), indicating competitive local growth drivers. Overseas migration was the main contributor to demographic gains, accounting for approximately 57.99999999999999% of all population increases in recent times. AreaSearch implements ABS and Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 district, published in 2024 with a 2022 baseline. In instances where SA2 regions lack this coverage, projections from the NSW State Government at the SA2 level are used, published in 2022 with a 2021 baseline. Age-specific growth percentages from these datasets are projected forward for all locations from the year 2032 to 2041. Looking at future demographic patterns, a substantial rise in population is anticipated within the top quarter of regional zones nationwide, with the suburb of North Albury projected to add 1,469 residents by 2041 based on compiled SA2 projections, representing a total increase of 21.9% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
56 new dwellings have been approved in North Albury over the past five years, an average of 11 a year. That is 1.8 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 17, 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 evaluations of ABS building approval statistics distributed from broader statistical divisions, the suburb of North Albury has averaged approximately 11 residential approvals annually, with an estimated total of 56 properties approved over the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25) and 16 during FY-26 so far. Because an average of only 0.2 residents moved to the locality each year for every home built over the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), supply matches or exceeds local demand, offering buyers more options and creating potential for population growth to exceed projections, while new properties carry an average construction value of $432,000—just above the regional norm—indicating a focus on premium builds.
Additionally, commercial projects valued at $11.0 million have been approved this financial year, showing balanced development in the business sector. Relative to the Rest of NSW, the suburb of North Albury displays considerably lower construction volume (75.0% below the regional average per resident). This limited building activity typically helps sustain demand and values for existing properties. Construction volume is also lower than the national benchmark, reflecting a mature market and highlighting potential planning limits. Newly approved projects consist of 93.0% detached houses and 7.0% medium and high-density homes, reinforcing the suburban character with a focus on family dwellings for buyers wanting space. Having approximately 626 residents for every approved dwelling, the suburb of North Albury demonstrates a highly established housing market. Demographic projections indicate the suburb of North Albury will add 1,395 new residents up to 2041 (calculated from the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimate). Based on current building rates, the supply of new housing may not keep pace with population growth, which could increase competition among buyers and support rising property values.

3,094 residents of North Albury are employed, from a labour force of 3,409. Unemployment sits at 9.2%, with participation at 65.3%. 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 5,099, about 80% 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 suburb of North Albury features a diverse workforce containing a mix of professional and manual roles, with a strong presence in vital service fields, alongside an unemployment rate of 9.2%, derived from AreaSearch compilations of regional statistical data. As of March 2026, there are 3,094 working residents, and the unemployment rate is 5.1% higher than the Regional NSW benchmark of 4.1%, indicating room for employment gains, while participation in the workforce is typical at 65.3% compared to 60.6% in Regional NSW. Census data indicates that a modest 7.5% of workers operated from home, though this may have been influenced by COVID-19 lockdown restrictions.
The primary employment sectors for local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction. The community displays a notable specialization in the manufacturing sector, where the employment proportion is 1.6 times the regional benchmark. On the other hand, agriculture, forestry & fishing is underrepresented, employing 0.7% of the workforce compared to the regional average of 5.3%. This mostly residential community seems to provide few local employment options, as shown by comparing the count of Census workers against the resident population. According to AreaSearch studies of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated from regional files, the local labor pool contracted by 4.4% and total employment fell by 6.4% in the year ending March 2026, leading to a 1.9 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. Over the same timeframe, Regional NSW saw employment fall by 0.9%, the labor pool contract by 0.4%, and unemployment rise by 0.5 percentage points. Future local demand might be understood through national employment forecasts published by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25. These estimates, looking five and ten years ahead, have been aligned with local job categories to project regional trends. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rates of change differ widely by sector. Projecting these industry rates onto the local job structure indicates that employment in the suburb of North Albury would rise by 6.2% over five years and 13.2% over ten years (this represents a basic weighted calculation for illustration and 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 — 27 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (6,232 at the 2021 Census → 6,367 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.
