Sales Detail
Rutherglen has an estimated 2,648 residents, up from 2,579 at the 2021 Census — a change of 69 people, or 2.7%. Growth has averaged 0.8% a year over five years, slower than 76% of areas nationally. Density is about 21 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
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Rutherglen has an estimated population of roughly 2,648, established through AreaSearch's evaluation of regional ABS updates alongside post-Census address validations. This represents a gain of 69 people (2.7%) relative to the 2,579 people recorded in the 2021 Census. Such movement is derived from an Estimated Resident Population figure of 2,646 identified in the ABS June 2025 data release, combined with 64 validated new addresses added since the Census. Across the locality, population density stands at 21 persons per square kilometer, ensuring spacious living conditions.
Outperforming the wider SA3 area (1.2%), the suburb of Rutherglen emerged as a regional pacesetter with its 2.7% increase. Inbound interstate migration served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 55.00000000000001% of aggregate population additions, while natural increases and overseas migration also contributed positively. Projections published in 2024 by ABS/Geoscience Australia utilizing 2022 as a base year are applied by AreaSearch across SA2 boundaries. Where specific SA2 coverage is absent, 2023 VIC State Government Regional/LGA projections are integrated via a weighted aggregation methodology translating LGA figures into SA2 metrics. Age cohort trends from these models are similarly applied to all districts for the 2032 to 2041 period. Looking ahead, the suburb of Rutherglen is slated for substantial expansion that places it in the upper quartile of regional Australian localities, with aggregated SA2 modeling anticipating an addition of 739 persons by 2041, representing a cumulative 27.8% expansion across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
100 new dwellings have been approved in Rutherglen over the past five years, an average of 20 a year. That places the area in the 52nd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 8 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 22 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 100% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 43, 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
Analysis of ABS residential approval statistics by AreaSearch shows that building approvals in Rutherglen have averaged approximately 20 per annum, accumulating to an estimated 100 homes over the prior 5 financial years. Within FY-25 to date, 43 approvals have been logged. With an average of only 1 new residents per year per dwelling constructed between FY-21 and FY-25, residential supply is adequately matching or outpacing demand, granting purchasers extensive choice and accommodating demographic expansion above projected trajectories, alongside an average development value of $469,000 per dwelling. Furthermore, commercial approvals totaling $2.4 million have been registered during this financial year, underscoring the locality's primarily residential profile.
Residential building activity in Rutherglen outpaces Rest of Vic. by 28.0% above regional average per person over the 5 year period, maintaining healthy options for buyers while sustaining underlying real estate demand. Recent building works have centered entirely on standalone houses, safeguarding the low-density neighborhood character and appealing to purchasers seeking expansive allotments. Demonstrating roughly 93 people per dwelling approval, the locality exhibits clear attributes of a low-density environment. Projections indicate that Rutherglen will add 737 residents out to 2041 according to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly release. While construction volumes are tracking in reasonable alignment with future demand, prospective buyers might encounter tighter market conditions as the local population base broadens.

Frequently Asked Questions - Infrastructure
JBS Rivalea Corowa Grower Farm
JBS Pork Australia (formerly Rivalea) is investing over $400 million to modernise pork farming operations across the Federation Council area in NSW. The Corowa Grower Farm (Redlands Road) is the existing site being upgraded, while new purpose-built breeding facilities are proposed at Rosewood Park near Mulwala, One Tree Lane near Lowesdale, and Huddans. The project separates growing and breeding operations onto individual sites to improve biosecurity, replaces ageing sheds and infrastructure in stages, and delivers state-of-the-art animal welfare, ventilation, and effluent management systems.Circular economy initiatives include nutrient recycling, expanded biogas capture (doubling CO2 abatement to ~120,000 tonnes per year), and upgraded wastewater treatment. The project supports 650 jobs in the Federation Council area and sources 95% of grain from 550+ local growers. It is being assessed as State Significant Development under the NSW Major Projects Planning Portal (SSD-93652960), with the EIS currently being prepared and community exhibition expected in early 2026. Construction is targeted to commence in 2027, with all sites fully operational by 2030.

1,242 residents of Rutherglen are employed, from a labour force of 1,305. Unemployment sits at 4.8%, with participation at 58.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 4.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,203, about 83% 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
Backed by a capable workforce, Rutherglen features substantial participation across industrial and manufacturing trades, recording an unemployment rate of 4.8% per AreaSearch aggregated statistical data. As of March 2026, employed residents total 1,242, with joblessness tracking 1.1% above Regional Vic.'s 3.7% benchmark and the participation rate sitting below regional levels at 58.4% compared to Regional Vic.'s 61.1%. Only 12.2% of workers reported working from home during the Census, though prevailing Covid-19 restrictions at the time warrant consideration. Local workers are primarily engaged in manufacturing, health care & social assistance, and accommodation & food services.
Notably, manufacturing demonstrates high local concentration, capturing an employment share 2.7 times the regional level. Conversely, health care & social assistance accounts for only 11.2% of Rutherglen's workforce, falling well short of the 16.8% recorded across Regional Vic.. A comparison of resident workers to Census local jobs suggests that on-site employment opportunities within the district remain relatively constrained. AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS data, aggregated from broader statistical areas, indicates that during the year to March 2026, the labour force decreased by 2.1% alongside a 2.9% employment decline, causing the unemployment rate to rise by 0.7 percentage points. This compares to Regional Vic., where employment fell by 0.1%, labour force contracted by 0.3%, and unemployment fell 0.2 percentage points. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from Mar-26 can offer further insight into potential future demand within Rutherglen. These projections, covering five and ten-year periods, have been mapped against the local employment profile to estimate growth patterns. While national employment is forecast to expand by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates differ significantly between industry sectors. Applying these industry-specific projections to Rutherglen's employment mix suggests local employment should increase by 4.9% over five years and 11.4% over ten years (please note this is a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not take into account localised 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 — 64 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,579 at the 2021 Census → 2,648 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 (SAL22217). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
