Sales Detail
Windradyne has an estimated 3,412 residents, up from 3,309 at the 2021 Census — a change of 103 people, or 3.1%. Growth has averaged 0.9% a year over five years. That puts 1,349 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's evaluation of regional ABS updates alongside newly validated post-Census addresses, the suburb of Windradyne has an estimated resident population of around 3,412 as of Aug 2026. This represents an expansion of 103 people (3.1%) compared to the 3,309 people recorded in the 2021 Census. Such growth is deduced from an estimated resident count of 3,405 following the ABS ERP release from June 2025, in addition to 91 validated new addresses confirmed since the Census benchmark. The resulting population density stands at 1,348 persons per square kilometer, outperforming the national benchmark across locations reviewed by AreaSearch.
Furthermore, the suburb of Windradyne outperformed the wider SA4 region (2.3%) with its 3.1% gain since the 2021 census, establishing itself as a regional growth leader. Internal natural increase served as the primary growth engine, generating approximately 73.0% of recent population additions. Projections utilised by AreaSearch draw upon 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia datasets using 2022 as the base year for local SA2 zones, supplemented by 2022 NSW State Government SA2 figures based on 2021 where necessary. For the 2032 to 2041 period, cohort-specific growth rates from these models are incorporated across all territories. Looking forward, the suburb of Windradyne is positioned within the highest quartile among non-metropolitan Australian locations for demographic expansion, with aggregated SA2 modeling anticipating an addition of 863 persons by 2041, culminating in a 25.1% cumulative gain across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
31 new dwellings have been approved in Windradyne over the past five years, an average of 6 a year. That is 3.0 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 19, running ahead of 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 statistical area building approvals indicates that Windradyne has recorded an annual average of approximately 6 residential approvals, generating an estimated total of 31 homes over the previous 5 financial years. In FY-25 to date, 19 approvals have been logged. Between FY-21 and FY-25, the influx averaged 3 people per year for every dwelling completed over the past 5 financial years, highlighting a notable supply deficit relative to local demand that tends to heighten buyer competition and drive price growth. Approved residential builds carry an average expected construction cost of $465,000.
Additionally, non-residential activity has been subdued, with commercial approvals totaling $129,000 registered this financial year. Per capita residential building approvals in Windradyne run at roughly three-quarters of the pace recorded across Rest of NSW, positioning the locality in the 53rd percentile nationally despite a recent uptick in building activity. This rate also sits below national figures, pointing to market maturity alongside prospective development constraints. The construction pipeline is heavily oriented toward 89.0% detached houses alongside 11.0% medium and high-density housing, preserving traditional suburban surroundings oriented toward family living. With an average of roughly 272 people per approval, the locality displays typical low-density attributes. According to the most recent quarterly projections from AreaSearch, Windradyne is set to gain 856 residents by 2041. Should current rates of construction persist, residential output may struggle to match demographic expansion, which could intensify competition among purchasers and underpin ongoing upward pressure on pricing.

Charles Sturt University Bathurst Campus Master Plan
The Bathurst Campus Master Plan is Charles Sturt University's long-term framework for redeveloping its approximately 90 hectare Panorama Avenue campus over the next 15 to 20 years. Delivered as Phase 3 of the university's campus master planning program (following a University Portfolio Plan and the Wagga Wagga Campus Master Plan), the plan was prepared with Hassell and Alluvium and shaped by a 35-member working group, eight site visits and more than 100 consultation sessions with staff, students and the Bathurst community.Its central move is to consolidate the campus's currently dispersed buildings into a compact, vibrant academic core, releasing surplus land for partnership, residential and commercial opportunities while reducing operating costs. The plan covers campus visioning and strategy, spatial planning, and asset strategy and feasibility, and is structured around four pillars: a Place of Country, a Place for Education, a Place for Research and a Place for Community. It also proposes reinstating ecological corridors along Hawthornden Creek and surrounding wetlands, and aligns with Bathurst Regional Council's Vision Bathurst 2040 Local Strategic Planning Statement. The final plan document is published on the university website. Implementation will be phased and paced according to the university's financial capacity, with individual projects prioritised against the plan's strategic directions and supported where possible by industry and commercial partnerships. No individual works packages have been funded, approved or committed to date. The campus currently serves about 2,500 students across disciplines including communication, nursing, exercise science, dentistry and engineering.

The master plan is adopted and Council is preparing a planning proposal to amend the LEP and DCP to enable development in line with the precinct plan.
1,910 residents of Windradyne are employed, from a labour force of 1,952. Unemployment sits at 2.2%, with participation at 71.1%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,487, about 73% 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
Statistical area data processed by AreaSearch indicates that Windradyne possesses a qualified workforce with a strong presence in essential services and a low unemployment rate of 2.2%. In March 2026, employed locals numbered 1,910, with local unemployment sitting 2.0% under the 4.1% recorded for Regional NSW. Concurrently, labor participation reached a solid 71.1%, significantly outpacing the Regional NSW benchmark of 60.6%. Working from home was noted among only 11.5% of residents at the Census, although historical Covid-19 lockdown conditions may have influenced this outcome. Local resident employment is centered primarily around health care & social assistance, education & training, along with public administration & safety.
Representation is notably pronounced in public administration & safety, where local concentration reaches 1.4 times the broader regional benchmark. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 0.8% of local workers, compared with 5.3% regionally. The balance between resident workers and local jobs recorded in the Census underlines the area's predominantly residential character, with limited employment opportunities situated within the suburb itself. Reviewing SALM and ABS statistical metrics, AreaSearch observes that over a 12-month period, the local labor pool contracted by 1.3% while overall employment fell by 2.0%, lifting the jobless rate by 0.7 percentage points. Across Regional NSW, employment decreased by 0.9%, the labor force dropped by 0.4%, and unemployment climbed by 0.5 percentage points. Broader national projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide an indicator for prospective workforce shifts within Windradyne. Across the country, employment is expected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with sector-level outcomes varying widely. Applying these industry growth trends directly to Windradyne's employment composition indicates potential local employment gains of 6.3% over five years and 13.5% over ten years (note that this is a simple weighted extrapolation for illustration and excludes localized demographic forecasts).

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 — 91 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,309 at the 2021 Census → 3,412 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 (SAL14342). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
