Sales Detail
Yarra Junction has an estimated 3,034 residents, up from 2,875 at the 2021 Census — a change of 159 people, or 5.5%. Growth has averaged 1.2% a year over five years. Natural increase accounts for 65.0% of that increase. That puts 173 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 population of the suburb of Yarra Junction stands at approximately 3,034, according to AreaSearch research that synthesised wider ABS updates and new addresses validated since the Census. When compared to the 2021 Census tally of 2,875 people, this indicates an expansion of 159 people (5.5%). This calculation is derived from an Estimated Resident Population figure of 3,032 generated by AreaSearch after assessing the June 2025 ABS ERP release, combined with 79 validated new addresses added post-Census. With a population density of 173 persons per square kilometer, the locality maintains generous space per resident along with scope for future expansion.
Outperforming both the broader SA4 region and the SA3 area (3.6%), the suburb of Yarra Junction recorded 5.5% growth since the 2021 census, establishing itself as a local growth standout. Natural increase served as the primary growth driver, accounting for roughly 65.0% of total recent population additions. For demographic modelling across SA2 areas, AreaSearch incorporates ABS/Geoscience Australia projections published in 2024 using 2022 as a base year. Where SA2 coverage is unavailable, AreaSearch employs 2023 VIC State Government Regional/LGA projections, adjusting figures via weighted aggregation of population increases from LGA down to SA2 divisions. These aggregations also establish age-specific growth trajectories applied to all locations for the 2032 to 2041 period. Looking ahead, demographic forecasts suggest the suburb of Yarra Junction will track slightly below the national statistical median, gaining 128 persons to 2041 under aggregated SA2-level figures, representing an overall rise of 4.2% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
92 new dwellings have been approved in Yarra Junction over the past five years, an average of 18 a year. That places the area in the 58th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 6 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 28, 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
An evaluation of ABS building approval records by AreaSearch reveals that Yarra Junction has maintained an average of roughly 18 new dwelling approvals annually, accumulating an estimated 92 homes across the preceding 5 financial years. During FY-25 to date, 28 approvals have been logged. Supply aligns evenly with demand, as approximately 2 new residents per year per dwelling constructed were recorded over the past 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), fostering balanced market conditions. New residences carry an average expected construction cost of $461,000. Additionally, commercial development has shown sustained momentum, with $12.5 million in commercial approvals registered in the current financial year.
Per capita building activity in Yarra Junction runs 61.0% higher than Greater Melbourne, providing prospective purchasers with expanded options. Detached houses account for 89.0% of new residential development, while townhouses or apartments constitute 11.0%, reinforcing the low-density fabric of the area and appealing to buyers seeking standalone properties. Demonstrating its low-density profile, the locality records roughly 134 people per dwelling approval. According to the latest quarterly projection from AreaSearch, Yarra Junction is anticipated to add 126 residents through to 2041. Ongoing residential construction patterns appear well-positioned to satisfy incoming housing demand, supporting favourable buyer conditions and creating capacity for population growth to exceed baseline expectations.

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.
1,402 residents of Yarra Junction are employed, from a labour force of 1,502. Unemployment sits at 6.7%, with participation at 60.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,390, 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
Yarra Junction features an even distribution between blue-collar and white-collar roles, highlighted by substantial representation in the construction sector, an unemployment rate sitting at 6.7%, and an estimated 2.0% annual employment rise according to AreaSearch statistical aggregations. As of March 2026, working residents number 1,402. The local jobless rate exceeds Greater Melbourne's 4.8% by 1.9%, while the participation rate of 60.5% trails the Greater Melbourne figure of 70.1% by a considerable margin. In Census returns, working from home was reported by 19.2% of workers, though Covid-19 restrictions during that period should be noted.
Local workforce participation is primarily clustered within construction, health care & social assistance, and education & training. Construction represents a major local specialty, commanding an employment share 1.9 times the wider regional benchmark. Conversely, professional & technical roles account for only 3.6% of local employment, trailing Greater Melbourne's 10.1%. A comparison between resident numbers and Census working population figures indicates limited employment opportunities situated directly within the locality. AreaSearch assessment of ABS and SALM metrics over the 12 months to March 2026 shows local employment expanding by 2.0% against a 2.7% increase in the labour force, causing the jobless rate to climb by 0.6 percentage points. Over the same span across Greater Melbourne, employment grew by 2.1%, the workforce rose by 2.3%, and unemployment lifted by 0.2 percentage points. Future workforce requirements can be evaluated using national industry projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26, which have been aligned with the area's employment structure. While Australia-wide employment is projected to expand by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, trajectories vary by sector. Applying these rates to the local industry profile suggests employment in Yarra Junction could increase by 5.9% over five years and 12.4% over ten years (calculated via simple weighted extrapolation for illustration without incorporating local population 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 — 79 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,875 at the 2021 Census → 3,034 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 (SAL22911). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
