Sales Detail
Wallington has an estimated 1,573 residents, up from 1,515 at the 2021 Census — a change of 58 people, or 3.8%. Growth has averaged 1.1% a year over five years. Density is about 43 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 Wallington has an estimated population of approximately 1,573, according to AreaSearch evaluations combining broader regional ABS population updates with new addresses validated since the Census. When compared to the 2021 Census tally of 1,515 people, this indicates an expansion of 58 people (3.8%). This net variation is drawn from an estimated resident population of 1,571 calculated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 ERP release alongside 25 validated new addresses identified since the Census. Demographic density sits at 42 persons per square kilometer, providing local residents with generous physical space.
Across the prior decade, the suburb of Wallington sustained a steady 1.6% compound annual growth rate, exceeding the pace recorded across Rest of Vic.. Net interstate migration served as the primary growth engine, generating around 64.0% of recent population gains, while natural increase and overseas migration also contributed positively. Population projections for each SA2 district applied by AreaSearch originate from the 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia dataset with 2022 serving as the base year. In SA2 localities where this coverage is absent, AreaSearch draws upon the 2023 VIC State Government Regional/LGA projections, converting LGA data down to SA2 equivalents through weighted aggregation. Age cohort growth rates derived from these aggregations are subsequently integrated across all districts for the 2032 to 2041 period. Based on these demographic forecasts, the suburb of Wallington is anticipated to undergo exceptional expansion that ranks within the top 10 percent across non-capital territories, with the suburb of Wallington projected to add 719 persons to 2041 under aggregated SA2 modelling, amounting to an overall gain of 45.6% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
113 new dwellings have been approved in Wallington over the past five years, an average of 22 a year. That is 13.2 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 26 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 69% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 8, 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
Building approval metrics compiled by AreaSearch from ABS statistical area releases indicate that Wallington has averaged approximately 22 residential approvals per year. Across the last 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), roughly 113 dwellings received building approval, including 8 approved during FY-25 to date. Over those 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), the area recorded an average annual inflow of only 0.8 people per completed dwelling, showing that residential construction is matching or outpacing demand, affording prospective buyers substantial options and establishing physical headroom for population gains beyond current forecasts.
Furthermore, newly approved homes carry an average construction cost of $604,000, illustrating an emphasis among developers on the higher-end, premium residential segment. Non-residential development comprised $435,000 in commercial building approvals this financial year, underscoring an urban landscape dominated by housing. Residential development per capita in Wallington aligns closely with Rest of Vic., providing steady local property growth consistent with broader regional dynamics. Nevertheless, this building pace is substantially higher than the national standard, reflecting pronounced developer confidence in the area. Compositionally, recent building approvals encompass 69.0% detached houses and 31.0% townhouses or apartments. This increasing delivery of medium-density formats introduces varied price points ranging from larger family homes to compact, lower-cost housing options. This shift contrasts markedly with the existing housing stock (presently 100.0% houses), signaling both diminishing supplies of broadacre development land and an evolving market appetite for diverse, accessible home styles. Additionally, generating around 260 people per dwelling approval characterizes Wallington as a low density environment. Looking ahead, forecasts from the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate anticipate Wallington adding 717 residents through to 2041. Supported by ongoing building volumes, residential additions should comfortably satisfy incoming occupancy demands, maintaining accommodating market conditions for buyers while supplying sufficient capacity to support expansion above baseline projections.

A separate project to improve the intersection at Bellarine Highway and Moolap Station Road is also underway.The works are expected to take approximately six months to complete, weather permitting.
790 residents of Wallington are employed, from a labour force of 810. Unemployment sits at 2.5%, with participation at 61.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.4% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,093, about 133% of the resident population, so the area draws in more workers than it sends out. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Wallington maintains a capable labour pool featuring prominent representation in the construction sector and a low jobless rate of 2.5%, based on statistical area aggregations compiled by AreaSearch. In March 2026790 residents were actively employed, with the unemployment rate tracking 1.2% under the 3.7% observed across Regional Vic., while local labour participation matched Regional Vic.'s 61.1%. According to Census records, working from home was reported by 31.2% of workers, a metric that may incorporate influences from Covid-19 restrictions. The primary employment fields for the local workforce are construction, health care & social assistance, alongside retail trade.
Specialized job concentration is particularly evident in construction, where local workforce representation is 1.4 times that of the wider region. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 3.1% of employed locals, trailing the 7.5% mark across Regional Vic.. Having recorded 1.2 jobs per resident at the Census, the locality operates as a regional employment centre that generates more workplaces than resident workers and attracts commuting labour from surrounding communities. Synthesizing broader statistical area figures from ABS and SALM sources, AreaSearch identified that during the 12 months to March 2026, the local workforce contracted by 1.6% alongside a 1.5% decrease in employed persons, leaving local unemployment largely unchanged. Over the identical timeframe, Regional Vic. saw employment fall by 0.1%, the labour pool reduce by 0.3%, and unemployment decrease by 0.2 percentage points. Longer-term employment trajectories can be evaluated using national industry projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26. When these five and ten-year nationwide sector projections—projecting overall Australian employment growth of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years—are weighted against Wallington's existing industry distribution, local employment is modeled to expand by 6.4% over five years and 13.2% over ten years (representing a baseline weighting extrapolation without local demographic adjustments).

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 Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (1,515 at the 2021 Census → 1,573 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 (SAL22663). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
