Sales Detail
Whittington has an estimated 3,867 residents, down from 3,990 at the 2021 Census — a change of 123 people, or 3.1%. The population has thinned by an average 0.8% a year over five years, slower than 98% of areas nationally. That puts 2,479 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 evaluations of ABS population adjustments for the wider region and new addresses verified by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Whittington has an estimated population of 3,867 as of May 2026. This represents a decline of 123 people (3.1%) compared to the 2021 Census, which counted 3,990 residents. The variation is calculated from a resident population of 3,863, estimated by AreaSearch using the latest ABS ERP figures from June 2025 alongside an extra 23 verified new addresses registered after the Census date. This population size results in a density of 2,478 persons per square kilometer, placing the locality in the top quartile of national areas analyzed by AreaSearch.
Inward overseas migration stood as the sole source of population increases during recent times. AreaSearch implements ABS and Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, published in 2024 with 2022 as the base year. Where SA2 data is unavailable, AreaSearch uses the 2023 VIC State Government Regional/LGA projections, adjusting them via weighted aggregation of population growth from LGA to SA2 levels. Growth rates by age brackets from these aggregations are also applied across all areas for the period 2032 to 2041. Future demographic trends indicate population growth exceeding the median for national regional areas, with the suburb of Whittington projected to add 506 residents by 2041 based on combined SA2 projections, representing a total rise of 13.0% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
31 new dwellings have been approved in Whittington over the past five years, an average of 6 a year. That is 1.6 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 3, 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 tracking of ABS building approvals allocated from statistical areas shows that Whittington averages about 6 residential approvals each year. A total of 31 homes were approved over the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), with 3 approved during the current FY-26 period. Given the recent decline in population, this new supply has likely matched local demand and provided sufficient options for buyers, with new residences constructed at an average cost of $337,000. Additionally, commercial approvals worth $6.2 million were registered during the current financial year, highlighting the residential focus of the locality.
Whittington exhibits a substantial reduction in building activity compared to the Rest of Vic., trailing the regional per capita average by 85.0%. This restricted level of new supply typically supports demand and values for existing properties. This volume is also lower than national benchmarks, indicating a mature market and highlighting potential development limitations. Recent residential construction consists of 57.0% detached houses and 43.0% semi-detached dwellings or apartments, with this rising proportion of townhouses and apartments offering diverse choices at different price points, ranging from family residences to affordable compact options. This marks a notable shift from the established housing stock, which currently consists of 91.0% houses, reflecting a scarcity of development land and responding to changing lifestyle choices and affordability needs. The locality contains approximately 774 people for every single dwelling approval, indicating an established market structure. Population projections suggest the suburb of Whittington will add 502 residents by 2041, based on the latest quarterly calculations from AreaSearch. If current building rates persist, residential supply might fall short of population gains, which could intensify competition among buyers and support stronger growth in property values.

1,566 residents of Whittington are employed, from a labour force of 1,755. Unemployment sits at 10.8%, with participation at 53.2%. 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 3,067, about 79% 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
Whittington possesses a balanced labor force distributed across white-collar and blue-collar roles, with a strong presence in essential services, an unemployment rate of 10.8%, and steady employment conditions over the preceding year, according to aggregated statistical area data from AreaSearch. As of March 2026, there are 1,566 residents employed. The local unemployment rate is 7.1% higher than the Regional Vic. rate of 3.7%, suggesting opportunities for improvement, while workforce participation is notably lower at 53.2% compared to the regional rate of 61.1%. Census records show that a minor 11.7% of employees worked from home, though this figure may have been influenced by COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
The major employment fields for residents are retail trade, health care & social assistance, and manufacturing. The locality displays a high concentration of retail trade workers, employing 1.4 times the regional average. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 0.4% of the local workforce, which is below the Regional Vic. average of 7.5%. The heavily residential nature of the locality suggests sparse local employment options, as shown by comparing the count of Census workers against the resident population. Based on AreaSearch research of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated from wider geographic areas, the labor force shrank by 1.6% and employment fell by 0.1% over the 12-month period, which led to a 1.2 percentage point drop in the unemployment rate. This compares to Regional Vic., where employment fell by 0.1%, the labor force decreased by 0.3%, and unemployment dropped by 0.2 percentage points. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia issued in May-25 offer additional perspective on future demand trends in Whittington. These projections, spanning five and ten years, have been aligned with the local workforce structure to model potential growth. Although overall national employment is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates vary by industry. Applying these sectoral projections to the local workforce composition suggests Whittington employment will grow by 6.4% over five years and 13.6% over ten years, representing a simple weighted extrapolation that excludes local 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 — 23 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (3,990 at the 2021 Census → 3,867 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 (SAL22774). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
