Wandin North has an estimated 3,149 residents. That puts 190 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
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Wandin North has an estimated population of approximately 3,149 residents, established through AreaSearch's evaluation of wider ABS demographic updates alongside post-Census validated address data. This represents a gain of 17 people (0.5%) relative to the 2021 Census tally of 3,132 people. The figure builds on an estimated resident population of 3,148 determined by AreaSearch from the ABS June 2025 ERP release, combined with 13 validated new addresses recorded since the Census. With a population density of 189 persons per square kilometer, the locality offers ample space per occupant and opportunities for future expansion.
Recent demographic expansion was largely spurred by natural increase, accounting for roughly 75.0% of overall population gains. Population modeling by AreaSearch incorporates 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia projections pegged to a 2022 baseline for each SA2. Where such datasets are absent, projections rely on 2023 VIC State Government Regional/LGA figures, adjusted via weighted growth aggregation from LGA to SA2 tiers, with age-specific rates applied across all territories from 2032 to 2041. Looking forward, the suburb of Wandin North is projected to experience growth slightly beneath the national statistical area median, gaining 199 persons by 2041 under aggregated SA2 projections, which amounts to a cumulative rise of 6.3% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
32 new dwellings have been approved in Wandin North over the past five years, an average of 6 a year. That is 2.4 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 6, broadly in line with 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 by AreaSearch indicates that Wandin North has maintained an average of approximately 6 new residential approvals annually. A total of 32 dwellings received approval across the preceding 5 financial years (from FY-21 through FY-25), including 6 during FY-25 to date. Alongside a recent downward population trajectory, housing supply has generally matched buyer demand to maintain ample market choice. Newly built residences carry an average estimated construction value of $619,000—surpassing regional averages and underscoring a commitment to higher-end builds. Furthermore, non-residential activity includes $5.6 million in commercial development approvals recorded this financial year, reinforcing the suburb's prevailing residential focus.
Relative to Greater Melbourne, per-capita residential building activity in Wandin North stands at roughly 67%, ranking in the 19th percentile across Australia. This restrained construction rate narrows options for new-build purchasers while channeling demand toward existing properties. The subdued building volume relative to both metropolitan and national benchmarks points to a mature housing market alongside potential planning constraints. Recent residential building approvals have been exclusively dedicated to standalone dwellings, preserving the community's established low-density footprint and supplying spacious family properties. A ratio of 788 residents per residential building approval highlights a calm, low-intensity development climate. Long-term demographic forecasts anticipate Wandin North will expand by 198 residents by 2041 relative to AreaSearch's most recent quarterly calculation. While residential construction currently tracks demographic expansion at a steady rate, prospective home purchasers may face heightened competition as the local community grows.

Hereford Road Childcare Centre and Development Site
A planning permit for a 104-place childcare centre on a 5014 sqm site at 19-23 Hereford Road, Mount Evelyn was approved by VCAT on 4 December 2024, following a Council refusal that was overturned on appeal. The application, lodged by Planning Property Partners, originally also proposed a 24/7 McDonald's restaurant on the site, but the fast-food component was refused by Council and the refusal was upheld by VCAT. The childcare centre occupies about 43 percent of the supersite, which retains a development scheme allowing for an additional quick-service restaurant / fast-food outlet subject to further approval.The property was the site of Pro Futsal Mt Evelyn, a sports complex and physiotherapy clinic, held on a lease expiring 31 December 2025. The site was taken to market via Expressions of Interest closing 2 July 2025 through Burgess Rawson and Teska Carson, and has since sold; the purchaser has not been publicly disclosed. No construction start date has been confirmed.

Lilydale Food Waste to Energy Facility
A $48 million anaerobic digestion facility built at Yarra Valley Water's Lilydale Sewage Treatment Plant, processing approximately 55,000 tonnes of commercial food waste annually. The facility generates up to 39,000 kilowatt hours of electricity per day - around 35 per cent of Yarra Valley Water's energy needs - powering the facility itself and the adjacent Lilydale Sewage Treatment Plant, with surplus exported to the grid. It reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 24,700 tonnes per year (equivalent to removing 23,000 cars from the road).The facility received its first commercial food waste delivery in late 2025 and is ramping up operations, with electricity generation expected to begin in early 2026 and full operational capacity reached over the following year. Day-to-day operations are managed by Yarra Valley Water's partner company ReWaste.
1,811 residents of Wandin North are employed, from a labour force of 1,854. Unemployment sits at 2.3%, with participation at 70.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.0% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,411, about 77% 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
Wandin North features a capable local workforce distinguished by a prominent construction contingent, an unemployment rate of merely 2.3%, and annual employment growth estimated at 1.7% based on AreaSearch statistical aggregations. By March 2026, employed residents numbered 1,811, while the jobless rate sat 2.4% below the 4.8% recorded across Greater Melbourne, and local labor market participation tracked closely with the broader metropolitan figure of 70.1%. According to Census findings, 21.5% of working residents operated from home, though these figures were subject to prevailing Covid-19 restrictions. The primary employment sectors for local residents consist of construction, health care & social assistance, and retail trade.
Construction represents a major local specialization, capturing a workforce proportion 2.0 times the metropolitan average. Conversely, professional & technical roles are comparatively scarce, engaging just 5.5% of Wandin North workers compared to 10.1% across Greater Melbourne. Comparison between resident counts and local Census workplace figures points to a constrained supply of jobs within the immediate locality. AreaSearch assessment of ABS and SALM figures indicates that in the 12 months leading to March 2026, resident employment rose by 1.7% alongside a 2.0% expansion in the labour force, resulting in a 0.3 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. Over the identical timeframe, Greater Melbourne recorded employment growth of 2.1% and a 2.3% gain in the labour force, lifting its jobless rate by 0.2 percentage points. Forward-looking guidance from Jobs and Skills Australia's Mar-26 projections outlines nationwide employment growth of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with performance varying widely across industries. Applying these baseline industry projections to the local workforce distribution suggests potential employment increases of 6.0% over five years and 12.6% across ten years (representing an unadjusted weighted projection for illustration rather than localized demographic modeling).

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 — 13 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,132 at the 2021 Census → 3,149 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 (SAL22673). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
