Scullin has an estimated 3,052 residents. That puts 2,134 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 ABS demographic updates for the surrounding region combined with new address verification conducted by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Scullin has an estimated population of approximately 3,052 as of May 2026. This represents a reduction of 17 people (0.6%) from the 2021 Census, which recorded 3,069 residents. This population shift is calculated from the resident population of 3,052, which AreaSearch estimated using the ABS June 2025 ERP release alongside an additional 15 validated new addresses registered after the Census. This population level results in a density of 2,134 persons per square kilometer, exceeding the typical ratio found across national locations analyzed by AreaSearch.
Overseas migration was the primary driver of population growth, accounting for approximately 56.00000000000001% of all population gains in recent times. AreaSearch utilizes population projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for each SA2 region, which were published in 2024 using 2022 as the baseline. For SA2 regions lacking this data, and for any years after 2032, age cohort growth rates are sourced from ACT Government projections that also use 2022 as a baseline. Looking at future population trends, these projections suggest a contraction in the overall population, with the suburb of Scullin projected to lose 242 persons by 2041 under this model. In contrast, expansion is expected within particular age brackets, led by residents aged 85 and over, which is forecast to grow by 32 people. Details regarding age groups are available in the corresponding section.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
34 new dwellings have been approved in Scullin over the past five years, an average of 6 a year. That is 2.2 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 2, well below 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
Based on AreaSearch's evaluation of ABS building approvals distributed from statistical area statistics, the suburb of Scullin averages approximately 6 approved dwellings annually, culminating in an estimated 34 homes over the last 5 financial years. In the current financial year of FY-26, 2 approvals have been documented so far. Because only an average of 0.6 people relocated to the suburb for each new home constructed over the 5 financial years spanning FY-21 to FY-25, new supply is keeping pace with or running ahead of demand, expanding choices for buyers and potentially supporting population growth beyond current estimates.
The average value of these new builds is $369,000, which indicates that developers are focusing on the higher-end, premium segment of the market. Furthermore, commercial approvals total $537,000 for this financial year, showing that non-residential building activity remains very low. In comparison to the Australian Capital Territory, the suburb of Scullin shows a substantial deficit in building approvals, running 61.0% below the territory average on a per capita basis. This lack of new supply generally boosts demand and upward pressure on prices for established homes. Local building activity is also below the nationwide average, highlighting the mature nature of the suburb and suggesting potential planning constraints. Recent approvals consist of 57.0% detached houses and 43.0% medium and high-density dwellings, demonstrating a growing mix of attached housing options that cater to different budgets, ranging from large family residences to compact, affordable choices. This stands as a clear departure from the current housing stock, which is 80.0% houses, signaling a lack of vacant land for development and reflecting changing lifestyle preferences alongside a demand for more varied, budget-friendly housing. A ratio of approximately 609 residents for every dwelling approval confirms that the suburb of Scullin is a highly mature market. Given that population forecasts indicate a stable or declining resident count, the suburb of Scullin is likely to experience less pressure on housing demand, which should benefit prospective purchasers.

1,539 residents of Scullin are employed, from a labour force of 1,660. Unemployment sits at 7.3%, with participation at 69.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.6% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,376, about 78% 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 Scullin features a highly qualified labor force with strong representation in essential services, an unemployment rate of 7.3%, and an estimated job growth rate of 1.6% over the previous year, as aggregated by AreaSearch from statistical area data. In March 2026, employed residents numbered 1,539, while the local unemployment rate stood 3.2% higher than the Australian Capital Territory average of 4.1%, pointing to potential for labor market improvement. Participation in the workforce closely matches the territory level of 70.8%. Census data indicates that a modest 11.7% of the workforce worked from home, though this figure may be influenced by COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
The primary employment sectors for residents are public administration & safety, education & training, and health care & social assistance. The local workforce displays a strong concentration in education & training, employing staff at a rate 1.3 times the regional average. Conversely, public administration & safety is less prominent locally, accounting for 26.3% of workers compared to the territory average of 30.4%. The comparison between the local working population and resident population suggests this highly residential suburb offers few jobs within its own boundaries. AreaSearch's analysis of SALM and ABS data for the broader statistical areas indicates that during the year leading to March 2026, the count of employed residents rose by 1.6% and the labor force expanded by 1.0%, leading to a decrease in the unemployment rate of 0.5 percentage points. By comparison, the Australian Capital Territory saw employment rise by 0.3% and the labor force expand by 1.1%, resulting in a 0.7 percentage point increase in unemployment. National employment projections published by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 offer additional context on future demand patterns in the suburb of Scullin. These five-year and ten-year projections have been applied to the local industry mix to estimate employment trends. Nationally, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though individual sectors will perform differently. Applying these industry growth rates directly to the local workforce profile suggests employment for residents of the suburb of Scullin could rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.5% over ten years, representing a basic weighted extrapolation that does not account for local population changes.

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 — 15 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (3,069 at the 2021 Census → 3,052 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 (SAL80117). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
