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.

Richmond (Vic.) has an estimated 31,419 residents, up from 28,587 at the 2021 Census — a change of 2,832 people, or 9.9%. 879 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Overseas migration accounts for 85.0% of that increase. That puts 7,092 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
According to AreaSearch evaluations combining ABS demographic releases for the wider region with post-Census address validations, the population of the suburb of Richmond (Vic.) stands at approximately 31,419 as of Aug 2026. This represents an addition of 2,832 residents (9.9%) relative to the 2021 Census tally of 28,587. Such figures are derived from an ERP baseline of 31,134 established via the ABS June 2025 data release, alongside 879 newly confirmed addresses logged post-Census. With a resultant density of 7,092 persons per square kilometer, the suburb ranks among the upper 10% of areas nationally, driving substantial demand for local real estate.
Outpacing both state (9.5%) and national averages, the 9.9% gain since the 2021 Census positions the suburb as a primary regional growth hub. Inbound overseas migration provided the main momentum, generating roughly 85.0% of recent population gains. Projections for each SA2 district rely on ABS/Geoscience Australia datasets published in 2024 using 2022 as a baseline, while VIC State Government 2023 Regional/LGA releases fill remaining gaps through weighted LGA-to-SA2 growth aggregations. These aggregated age-bracket growth trajectories are extended across all locations for 2032 to 2041. Over this 16-year horizon, demographic expansion in the suburb of Richmond (Vic.) is anticipated to rank within the highest quartile nationwide, gaining 12,060 persons by 2041 under SA2-level modeling to deliver overall cumulative growth of 37.5%.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
629 new dwellings have been approved in Richmond (Vic.) over the past five years, an average of 125 a year. That places the area in the 73rd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 4 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 180 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 4% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 497, 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
AreaSearch evaluations of ABS building data indicate that development approvals across Richmond have averaged roughly 125 dwellings per year, yielding approximately 629 approved homes over the preceding 5 financial years. The current count for FY-25 has reached 497 approvals. With an average addition of only 0.4 new residents annually per dwelling built across the past 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), building activity is fully meeting and outpacing local intake, providing prospective buyers with extensive choice and underpinning long-term expansion capacity. Expected construction costs average $564,000 per dwelling—moderately above regional norms—highlighting an emphasis on premium residential projects.
Concurrently, $267.5 million in commercial approvals throughout this financial year underlines substantial local business reinvestment. Relative to Greater Melbourne, per-capita residential approvals in Richmond sit at roughly three-quarters the broader metropolitan pace, though national benchmarks place the area in the 85th percentile amidst escalating construction activity. Approvals are heavily skewed toward high-density formats, with detached houses accounting for 4.0% and attached dwellings comprising 96.0%. This orientation toward denser housing offers accessible avenues for downsizers, first-time purchasers, and property investors. A ratio of approximately 98 people per approval underscores Richmond's ongoing urban evolution. Based on current quarterly projections from AreaSearch, Richmond's population is set to expand by 11,775 residents through to 2041. Should building volumes fail to accelerate in step with demographic growth, residential availability could tighten, generating heightened purchaser competition and placing upward pressure on property values.

22,209 residents of Richmond (Vic.) are employed, from a labour force of 23,423. Unemployment sits at 5.2%, with participation at 81.9%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 38,474, about 122% 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
Richmond maintains a well-credentialed labour force featuring significant concentration in professional services, an unemployment rate of 5.2%, and annual job growth estimated at 3.7% via AreaSearch area-level data. In March 2026, employed residents totaled 22,209, with unemployment sitting 0.4% higher than the 4.8% recorded across Greater Melbourne, while labour force participation remained exceptionally elevated at 81.9% compared to the regional figure of 70.1%. At the Census, 50.6% of local workers reported working remotely, a statistic influenced by prevailing Covid-19 restrictions. Local employment is predominantly distributed across professional & technical, health care & social assistance, and education & training sectors.
Concentration is notably pronounced within professional & technical roles, where local representation is 1.9 times the regional average. Conversely, manufacturing makes up a modest 4.0% of local jobs against 7.2% across the wider region. Hosting 1.2 workers for each resident at the Census, Richmond operates as a major commercial center that draws in substantial commuting labor from surrounding districts. AreaSearch evaluations of ABS and SALM metrics indicate that over the year ending March 2026, the area recorded a 3.7% rise in employment and a 3.6% expansion in the labour force, leaving unemployment virtually unchanged. In comparison, Greater Melbourne experienced a 2.1% increase in employment, a 2.3% gain in the labour pool, and a 0.2 percentage point uptick in unemployment. National employment projections released in Mar-26 by Jobs and Skills Australia point to broader employment expansion of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years across Australia. When mapped against Richmond's industry profile, these sector forecasts suggest local employment increases of 7.3% across five years and 14.6% across ten years (representing an unadjusted weighted extrapolation for context).

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 — 879 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (28,587 at the 2021 Census → 31,419 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.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (SAL22170). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
