Sales Detail
Yackandandah has an estimated 1,942 residents, down from 2,008 at the 2021 Census — a change of 66 people, or 3.3%. Density is about 14 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 Yackandandah has an estimated population of approximately 1,942, determined through AreaSearch's evaluation of broader ABS updates alongside newly validated local addresses since the Census. Compared to the 2,008 residents recorded in the 2021 Census, this marks a drop of 66 people (3.3%). This updated figure stems from a resident base of 1,941 calculated via the ABS June 2025 ERP release, with an added 8 validated new addresses following the Census. The suburb of Yackandandah maintains a low-density living environment with 13.7 persons per square kilometer, offering residents substantial space.
In terms of demographic drivers, interstate migration served as the primary contributor by generating roughly 78.0% of recent population gains, complemented by positive contributions from natural increase and overseas migration. Demographic projections for the suburb of Yackandandah incorporate 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 modeling with a 2022 baseline, supplemented where necessary by 2023 Victorian Government LGA projections adjusted through weighted aggregation to SA2 levels. These aggregated age-specific growth rates are also utilized from 2032 to 2041. Over the coming years, long-term projections place the suburb of Yackandandah in the top quartile of non-metropolitan growth regions, forecasting an addition of 659 persons by 2041 based on combined SA2 figures, which represents an overall expansion of 33.9% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
55 new dwellings have been approved in Yackandandah over the past five years, an average of 11 a year. That is 3.6 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 1, 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
Analysis of ABS building approvals by AreaSearch indicates that Yackandandah averages approximately 11 residential building approvals annually, totaling an estimated 55 homes across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 1 recorded so far in FY-25. Given the recent drop in population, this level of residential construction remains relatively solid for incoming purchasers. New builds show an average expected construction cost of $511,000, exceeding regional standards and pointing toward higher-spec housing delivery. Furthermore, commercial building approvals have reached $626,000 during this financial year, underscoring that local planning and building remain heavily centered on housing.
Per capita construction in Yackandandah runs at roughly 60% of the level observed across Rest of Vic., placing the locality in the 9th percentile across Australia. This lower volume restricts housing options for prospective buyers and helps sustain value for existing properties. In addition, residential approvals have consisted entirely of separate houses, preserving the low-density neighborhood character that appeals to buyers seeking space. An estimated ratio of 1960 people per dwelling approval further highlights the calm, restrained property development market in the locality. According to the latest quarterly estimate from AreaSearch, forward demographic modeling points to an increase of 658 residents in Yackandandah by 2041. If residential construction continues at its current pace, future dwelling delivery could lag behind population growth, which may intensify competition among property buyers and place upward pressure on values.

967 residents of Yackandandah are employed, from a labour force of 987. Unemployment sits at 2.0%, with participation at 61.2%. 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 1,609, about 83% 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 compiled by AreaSearch indicates that Yackandandah features a highly skilled labor pool with strong representation across essential services and an unemployment rate of only 2.0%. In March 2026967 residents were actively employed, while local unemployment sat 1.7% under the 3.7% recorded for Regional Vic. The area's labor force participation matched Regional Vic. at 61.1%. Additionally, Census records showed that 24.0% of workers performed their duties from home, though this figure was influenced by Covid-19 lockdown measures. The primary industry sectors providing work to local residents are health care & social assistance, education & training, along with construction.
Notably, education & training shows exceptional strength, engaging workers at 1.5 times the broader regional rate. In contrast, retail trade accounts for a smaller footprint, employing 7.9% of workers compared to 9.9% across the wider region. Comparing the resident labor force to local Census employment numbers indicates that job opportunities situated directly within the area remain limited. Analysis of SALM and ABS data, which were aggregated from larger statistical areas, indicates that during the year to March 2026, the labour force shrank by 4.5% while employment fell by 4.4%, with unemployment levels staying roughly the same. In contrast, Regional Vic. experienced a 0.1% drop in employment, a 0.3% reduction in the labour force, and a 0.2 percentage point decrease in unemployment. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from Mar-26 provide additional perspective on likely future demand in Yackandandah. These forecasts span five and ten-year horizons and have been overlaid with the local employment profile to estimate future growth trajectories. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, expansion varies considerably across different industry sectors. When these sector-specific forecasts are applied to Yackandandah's employment composition, the local workforce is expected to grow by 6.4% over five years and 13.4% over ten years (this calculation represents a basic weighted extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not incorporate localized 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 — 8 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,008 at the 2021 Census → 1,942 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 (SAL22889). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
