Sales Detail
Umina Beach has an estimated 17,180 residents, down from 17,372 at the 2021 Census — a change of 192 people, or 1.1%. That puts 2,458 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 regional population updates and 72 validated new addresses recorded since the Census date, the suburb of Umina Beach has an estimated population of approximately 17,180 as of Aug 2026. This represents a contraction of 192 people (1.1%) relative to the 17,372 people counted in the 2021 Census. The calculation stems from an estimated resident population of 17,133 derived from the ABS ERP data release of June 2025 alongside post-Census address validations. The resulting population density stands at 2,457 persons per square kilometer, placing the suburb in the upper quartile across nationally evaluated locations by AreaSearch.
Inbound overseas migration served as the primary and essentially exclusive contributor to local population additions over recent timeframes. Future demographic projections modeled by AreaSearch incorporate ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 figures published in 2024 (benchmarked to base year 2022), supplemented by NSW State Government SA2 forecasts released in 2022 (benchmarked to base year 2021) wherever gaps exist. Age-specific growth trajectories across these series inform projections covering 2032 to 2041. Over the coming years, demographic expansion for the suburb of Umina Beach is projected slightly below the national median, with aggregated SA2 modeling indicating a gain of 1,897 persons through to 2041, representing a cumulative rise of 10.8% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
251 new dwellings have been approved in Umina Beach over the past five years, an average of 50 a year. That is 2.8 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 49 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 49% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 27, 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
AreaSearch assessment of ABS building approvals indicates that new residential approvals in Umina Beach average roughly 50 dwellings annually, with 251 homes approved across the 5 financial years spanning FY-21 to FY-25 and 27 recorded to date in FY-25. Against a backdrop of recent population declines, this volume of construction has maintained balanced market conditions and ample options for purchasers, with newly approved residences carrying an average construction cost of $487,000. Meanwhile, non-residential construction remains subdued, evidenced by $2.6 million in commercial building approvals during this financial year. Per capita residential approval rates in Umina Beach sit at roughly three-quarters of the Greater Sydney benchmark and rank within the 25th percentile nationally, constraining new purchasing stock while supporting demand for existing homes.
This below-average national volume reflects both the suburb's established character and potential planning hurdles. Among recent approvals, standalone houses represent 49.0% while attached dwellings account for 51.0%, indicating a pivot toward higher-density housing suited to first-home buyers, downsizers, and investors. This development mix contrasts sharply with the established residential fabric (which is 77.0% houses), signaling a tightening supply of vacant land alongside evolving resident preferences and affordability requirements. Overall, a ratio of approximately 592 people per approval underscores a mature, built-out community. Forecasts indicate that Umina Beach will add 1,850 residents by 2041 relative to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimate. Although current residential building activity tracks in line with these population projections, buyers could encounter heightened market competition as the local population increases.

Umina-Ocean Beach Erosion Management Strategy
Coastal management project including beach nourishment utilizing sand from Ettalong Shoal, terminal protection of The Esplanade, and coastal monitoring program to address severe storm erosion. $1M investment.
8,098 residents of Umina Beach are employed, from a labour force of 8,468. Unemployment sits at 4.4%, with participation at 60.1%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 13,659, about 80% 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
Local workforce metrics compiled by AreaSearch show that Umina Beach possesses a qualified labour pool with strong representation in essential industries, an unemployment rate of 4.4%, and annual job growth estimated at 2.9%. As of March 2026, employed residents numbered 8,098. The local jobless rate sits 0.2% above Greater Sydney's 4.1%, while labour force participation is notably lower at 60.1% compared to 68.9% across the greater metropolitan area. Additionally, Census data indicated that 34.8% of workers operated from home, though this figure was influenced by Covid-19 restrictions at the time.
The resident workforce is heavily concentrated within construction, retail trade, and health care & social assistance. Construction exhibits a particularly substantial presence, employing workers at 1.4 times the regional proportion. In contrast, professional & technical roles account for only 7.6% of local workers, lagging the regional benchmark of 11.5%. Given its predominantly residential nature, the suburb generates relatively few local jobs, as highlighted by Census comparisons between the resident workforce and locally based employment. AreaSearch analysis of ABS and SALM figures indicates that over the recent 12-month period, local employment expanded by 2.9% alongside a 3.0% increase in the labour force, keeping local unemployment relatively steady. Across Greater Sydney over the same timeframe, employment increased by 1.9%, the labour pool expanded by 1.9%, and unemployment declined slightly. National industry forecasts published by Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide further context on potential occupational demand. Nationally, total employment is projected to expand by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years. When mapped across Umina Beach's specific industry distribution, simple weighting extrapolations suggest local employment could grow by 6.8% over five years and 14.0% over ten years (noting this illustrative calculation does not factor in localized demographic 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 — 72 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (17,372 at the 2021 Census → 17,180 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.
