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.

Sales Detail
Tathra has an estimated 1,508 residents. The population has thinned by an average 0.8% a year over five years, slower than 96% of areas nationally. Density is about 73 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
According to evaluations of ABS population adjustments for the broader region and recent address validations conducted by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Tathra has an estimated population of approximately 1,508 in May 2026. This represents a contraction of 19 people (1.2%) from the 2021 Census, which registered 1,527 residents. This adjustment is calculated based on an estimated resident population of 1,506 by AreaSearch, derived from the ABS ERP release in June 2025, combined with 25 validated new addresses added since the Census. With this population level, the density stands at 72 persons per square kilometer, indicating low density and room for potential expansion.
Recent population gains were mostly driven by overseas migration, which accounted for approximately 50.0% of the total growth. AreaSearch incorporates projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for individual SA2 regions, which were published in 2024 using 2022 as the base year. In instances where SA2 areas lack this coverage, projections from the NSW State Government released in 2022 using 2021 as the base year are applied. Growth velocities across various age brackets from these data sources are projected forward for the years 2032 to 2041. Looking at future demographic trends, the suburb of Tathra is projected to experience growth slightly below the median rate of non-metropolitan Australia, with the local population expected to rise by 130 persons by 2041 based on compiled SA2 projections, representing an overall increase of 8.5% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
67 new dwellings have been approved in Tathra over the past five years, an average of 13 a year. That is 8.9 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 5, 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 by AreaSearch of ABS building approvals indicates that the suburb of Tathra averages approximately 13 residential approvals per year, with 67 dwellings approved during the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25) and 5 approvals recorded so far in FY-26. As the local population contracted during the preceding timeframe, this supply has likely aligned with demand, providing options for buyers. The average estimated value of these new dwellings is $496,000, suggesting developers are concentrating on higher-end, premium properties. Furthermore, commercial approvals have reached $3.9 million this financial year, reinforcing the predominantly residential profile of the locality.
Building activity per capita in the suburb of Tathra is 54.0% higher than the Rest of NSW average, offering home buyers a broader selection of properties. Of the recently approved dwellings, 59.0% are stand-alone houses and 41.0% consist of townhouses or multi-unit apartments, providing a diverse selection of price points and sizes ranging from family dwellings to smaller, cost-effective options. This represents a major shift from the existing local housing stock, which consists of 77.0% houses, reflecting a scarcity of development land and responding to changing lifestyle preferences and budget constraints. The ratio of residents to dwelling approvals is approximately 72 people, indicating a low-density residential market. Demographic projections indicate the suburb of Tathra will add 128 residents by 2041, starting from the most recent quarterly estimate by AreaSearch. With the current pace of construction, the supply of new housing is projected to comfortably satisfy this demand, maintaining favorable conditions for purchasers and potentially allowing for growth exceeding the current population estimates.

645 residents of Tathra are employed, from a labour force of 664. Unemployment sits at 2.9%, with participation at 49.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.7% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. 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 Tathra possesses a highly educated labor force with a strong presence in essential services and an unemployment rate of only 2.9%, according to AreaSearch statistical area compilations. In March 2026, there were 645 employed residents. The unemployment rate is 1.2% lower than the Regional NSW average of 4.1%, while workforce participation is considerably lower at 49.0% compared to 60.6% in Regional NSW. Census data indicates that a moderate 13.5% of the local workforce operated from home, though this figure may have been influenced by COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
The primary sectors employing residents are health care & social assistance, accommodation & food, and education & training. The local workforce has a notable concentration in the accommodation & food sector, employing people at 1.9 times the regional benchmark. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 2.5% of local employment, which is lower than the 5.3% average for Regional NSW. A comparison of the Census working population against resident workers indicates that local employment opportunities within the immediate area are relatively limited. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics compiled from broader geographic areas, the labor force shrank by 3.3% over the 12-month period, while total employment fell by 2.9%, leading to a decrease in the unemployment rate of 0.5 percentage points. In comparison, Regional NSW experienced a 0.9% contraction in employment, a 0.4% reduction in the labor force, and a 0.5 percentage point increase in unemployment. National forecasts released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 provide context for future employment demand in the suburb of Tathra, which are matched against the local workforce profile to project growth. Nationally, employment is expected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though individual sector growth rates vary. Applying these sector-specific trends to the local workforce mix suggests employment for the suburb of Tathra could rise by 6.7% over five years and 14.0% over ten years, representing a simple weighted calculation 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 — 25 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (1,527 at the 2021 Census → 1,508 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 (SAL13789). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
