Detail
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of South Wentworthville is estimated to have a population of approximately 7,239, according to AreaSearch's evaluation of wider ABS demographic updates and post-Census validated addresses. Compared to the 6,913 residents counted in the 2021 Census, this represents a growth of 326 people (4.7%). This projection is drawn from AreaSearch's calculation of 7,229 residents using the ABS's recent ERP data from June 2025 alongside 53 validated new addresses recorded since the Census. With 3,999 persons per square kilometer, the locality's population density places it within the top 10% of areas reviewed nationally by AreaSearch, underscoring high local land demand.
Expanding at a 1.5% compound annual growth rate over the last decade, the suburb of South Wentworthville has outperformed Greater Sydney, with overseas migration serving as the principal catalyst by generating roughly 64.0% of recent population additions. Projections for each SA2 region published by ABS/Geoscience Australia in 2024 (anchored to a 2022 base year) are implemented by AreaSearch, supplemented by NSW State Government SA2 forecasts released in 2022 (anchored to 2021) for locations not covered by the former. Cohort growth rates across these aggregations are additionally utilized for all districts between 2032 and 2041. In line with prevailing demographic patterns, the suburb of South Wentworthville is projected to experience a demographic gain slightly below the national statistical area median, adding 771 persons by 2041 under aggregated SA2 modeling, which translates to a total increase of 10.5% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
268 new dwellings have been approved in South Wentworthville over the past five years, an average of 53 a year. That places the area in the 52nd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 7 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 37 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 30% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 38, 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
Analysis of ABS building approvals across statistical areas by AreaSearch indicates that South Wentworthville has averaged roughly 53 residential approvals annually, yielding an estimated 268 dwellings across the preceding 5 financial years. Throughout FY-25 to date, 38 approvals have been registered. With an average of 1.7 new residents per year per dwelling constructed across the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 through FY-25), construction volume aligns closely with demographic expansion, supporting a balanced market environment where newly built dwellings carry an average construction cost of $497,000. Recent residential construction is distributed between medium and high-density housing at 70.0% and detached dwellings at 30.0%.
This shift toward higher density creates accessible entry points suitable for investors, first-time purchasers, and downsizers. It also marks a noticeable departure from the prevailing housing stock (wherein houses currently make up 57.0%), responding to land constraints alongside evolving buyer budgets and living preferences. South Wentworthville exhibits low-density development metrics with approximately 240 people per approval. According to the latest quarterly figures from AreaSearch, South Wentworthville is anticipated to add 761 residents through to 2041. Given prevailing construction activity, the supply of new dwellings is positioned to satisfy ongoing demand comfortably, establishing supportive purchasing conditions and potentially paving the way for expansion above current estimates.

The former Wentworthville Mall redevelopment at 42-44 Dunmore Street is a key private catalyst, planned for 23 storeys, 523 apartments, retail, supermarket and commercial space.
3,513 residents of South Wentworthville are employed, from a labour force of 3,804. Unemployment sits at 7.6%, with participation at 65.0%. 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 5,886, about 81% 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
AreaSearch statistical area data demonstrates that South Wentworthville possesses a qualified labor pool with substantial representation in professional services, experiencing an estimated 3.1% annual employment increase alongside a 7.6% unemployment rate. As of March 2026, employed residents total 3,513, while workforce participation sits at 65.0% (trailing Greater Sydney's 68.9%) and the local jobless rate exceeds Greater Sydney's 4.1% by 3.5%. Census findings indicated that 39.7% of workers operated from home, an outcome likely shaped by Covid-19 lockdown measures. The primary sectors employing local residents consist of construction, retail trade, and health care & social assistance.
Workforce concentration in construction is particularly pronounced, registering at 1.3 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical occupations are less prevalent locally, accounting for 8.0% compared to 11.5% regionally. Comparing the Census workforce size to the resident population underscores that this largely residential community provides limited local employment opportunities. AreaSearch synthesis of ABS and SALM statistical data shows that across the 12 months to March 2026, local employment grew by 3.1% against a 2.6% expansion in the labor force, reducing the unemployment rate by 0.4 percentage points. Throughout the same timeframe, Greater Sydney saw both employment and the labor force expand by 1.9%, alongside a slight decrease in joblessness. Potential demand trajectories within South Wentworthville can also be evaluated using Jobs and Skills Australia's national projections from Mar-26 across five- and ten-year horizons. Nationally, employment is projected to climb 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though outcomes vary across sectors. Mapping these industry rates to the local employment structure indicates potential job growth in South Wentworthville of 6.6% over five years and 13.6% over ten years (noting this illustrative weighting method excludes localized 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 — 53 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (6,913 at the 2021 Census → 7,239 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.
