Sales Detail
North Wollongong has an estimated 2,417 residents, up from 2,299 at the 2021 Census — a change of 118 people, or 5.1%. Overseas migration accounts for 94.0% of that increase. That puts 999 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
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of North Wollongong has an estimated population of around 2,417, determined through AreaSearch's review of broader ABS population updates alongside 58 validated new addresses recorded since the Census. Compared to the 2,299 people documented in the 2021 Census, this represents an expansion of 118 people (5.1%). The update builds upon an Estimated Resident Population (ERP) figure of 2,415 assessed from the June 2025 ABS release. Density in the suburb stands at 998 persons per square kilometer, aligning closely with broader benchmarks tracked by AreaSearch.
Moreover, the 5.1% increase since the 2021 census positioned the suburb of North Wollongong ahead of the wider SA3 area (4.8%) as a regional growth leader, with overseas migration driving the expansion by accounting for approximately 94.0% of recent population additions. Demographic modeling for the suburb of North Wollongong incorporates ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 projections published in 2024 (using 2022 as a base), supplemented where necessary by NSW State Government SA2 figures released in 2022 (anchored to 2021), with age-specific growth rates extended across 2032 to 2041. These aggregated SA2-level projections indicate the suburb will experience exceptional growth in the top 10 percent of national non-metropolitan areas, adding 1,412 persons to 2041, which equates to an overall rise of 58.3% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
76 new dwellings have been approved in North Wollongong over the past five years, an average of 15 a year. That is 5.9 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 22, 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
Property development data compiled by AreaSearch from ABS building approvals indicates that North Wollongong has averaged around 15 dwellings approved annually, amounting to an estimated 76 homes over the past 5 financial years, with 22 approvals registered to date in FY-25. Across the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, an average of no people per year relocated to the suburb for each new residence constructed, indicating that residential building supply is comfortably satisfying demand and expanding choice while new dwellings reflect an average expected construction cost of $453,000. Non-residential development remains limited, with $788,000 in commercial approvals logged this financial year, underscoring the locality's predominantly residential focus.
Per capita residential construction in North Wollongong tracks closely with Rest of NSW, sustaining market equilibrium even as building activity has accelerated lately. The composition of approved residential development is heavily weighted toward higher-density living, with 93.0% medium and high-density housing alongside 7.0% detached dwellings, delivering accessible pathways for first-home buyers, downsizers, and investors. Reflecting a low density area profile, the suburb records around 77 people per approval. Long-term planning projections from the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate anticipate that North Wollongong will expand by 1,410 residents through to 2041. Should dwelling approval and construction volumes remain at current levels, future residential supply could struggle to match demographic growth, heightening buyer competition and placing upward pressure on property prices.

1,387 residents of North Wollongong are employed, from a labour force of 1,515. Unemployment sits at 8.5%, with participation at 67.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 4,289, about 177% of the resident population, so the area draws in more workers than it sends out. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
North Wollongong features a highly qualified local workforce and a strong footprint in essential industries, recording an unemployment rate of 8.5% and estimated annual job growth of 0.8% according to AreaSearch statistical aggregations. As of March 2026, employed residents stand at 1,387; the local jobless rate sits 4.4% higher than the 4.1% recorded across Regional NSW, whereas labour force participation is exceptionally strong at 67.0% versus 60.6% in Regional NSW. Census data also noted that 31.6% of workers operated from home, though this figure was influenced by Covid-19 restrictions. Major employment fields for local residents comprise accommodation & food, education & training, and health care & social assistance.
Specialization is particularly pronounced in professional & technical services, where the concentration of jobs is 1.8 times the regional benchmark. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 0.3% of the local workforce compared to 5.3% in Regional NSW. Hosting 2.2 workers for every resident at the Census, the locality serves as a prominent employment hub that draws workers from across the broader region. SALM and ABS figures aggregated by AreaSearch show that during the 12 months to March 2026, local employment grew by 0.8% and the labour pool rose by 0.7%, keeping the jobless rate relatively steady; in contrast, Regional NSW experienced a 0.9% drop in employment, a 0.4% contraction in the labour force, and a 0.5 percentage points rise in unemployment. Looking ahead, Jobs and Skills Australia national forecasts from Mar-26 project nationwide job gains of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years. Weighting these sectoral forecasts against North Wollongong's specific industry distribution suggests potential local employment increases of 6.8% over five years and 14.0% over ten years (representing an illustrative weighting model that excludes localized population 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 — 58 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,299 at the 2021 Census → 2,417 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.
