Detail
According to AreaSearch evaluations combining regional ABS updates with post-Census address validations, the suburb of Yarralumla has an estimated tally of approximately 3,230 residents as of Aug 2026. This represents an addition of 110 people (3.5%) relative to the 2021 Census, when 3,120 people were recorded. Such expansion is based on an ERP-derived population baseline of 3,154 from ABS data (June 2025) alongside 29 validated new addresses confirmed after the Census. The suburb's density stands at 391 persons per square kilometer, indicating generous physical space per inhabitant and scope for upcoming development.
Inward overseas migration served as essentially the singular engine propelling demographic expansion across recent cycles. Projections utilize ABS and Geoscience Australia modelling published in 2024 (using 2022 as a base year), supplemented by ACT Government age-cohort projections based in 2022 for years past 2032 or locations outside standard coverage. Looking forward, the suburb of Yarralumla is projected to experience growth tracking slightly beneath the national statistical area median. Aggregated SA2-level figures anticipate an increase of 305 persons to 2041, representing a cumulative 7.1% rise across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
53 new dwellings have been approved in Yarralumla over the past five years, an average of 10 a year. That is 3.3 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 6, 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
ABS residential approval data examined by AreaSearch shows that Yarralumla averages approximately 10 new residential approvals each year, totaling roughly 53 dwellings throughout the previous 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) with 6 recorded to date in FY-25. The influx of new residents averaged only 1 people annually per new home completed between FY-21 and FY-25, indicating that construction volume is keeping pace with or exceeding local requirement. This dynamic broadens purchaser choice and supports population expansion potential. The average building value sits at $586,000, signaling developer focus on upscale, high-end builds.
Furthermore, commercial approvals have reached $31.4 million during the ongoing financial year, underlining vigorous non-residential construction activity. Compared with Australian Capital Territory benchmarks, per-capita residential construction in Yarralumla reaches approximately 69%, ranking the locality in the 51st percentile across the nation. This below-average volume underscores the established character of the area alongside potential urban planning restrictions. Notably, all recent residential approvals consist exclusively of standalone single-family homes, reinforcing a low-density urban fabric tailored to buyers seeking spacious environments. While standalone houses made up 65.0% at Census, new approvals reflect an even heavier orientation toward traditional detached housing, highlighting enduring appetite for detached residences despite broader intensification. A ratio of around 284 people per dwelling approval reflects a distinctly low-density profile. Demographic projections anticipate an influx of 229 residents into Yarralumla through to 2041, taking into account the most recent quarterly estimates from AreaSearch. Current property development momentum suggests that upcoming residential supply will comfortably absorb demand, creating favorable market conditions for prospective purchasers and potentially fostering demographic growth beyond baseline estimates.

1,573 residents of Yarralumla are employed, from a labour force of 1,615. Unemployment sits at 2.6%, with participation at 58.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.2% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Yarralumla possesses a highly educated workforce, with professional services showing strong representation, an unemployment rate of just 2.6%, and 0.8% in estimated employment growth over the past year, based on AreaSearch aggregation of statistical area data. As of March 2026, 1,573 residents are in work while the unemployment rate is 1.5% below Australian Capital Territory's rate of 4.1%, and workforce participation lags significantly (58.7% compared to Australian Capital Territory's 70.6%). Based on Census responses, a moderate 18.9% of residents were found to work from home, though Covid-19 lockdown impacts should be considered.
Resident employment centers largely on public administration & safety, professional & technical, and health care & social assistance. Professional & technical representation is particularly pronounced, reaching 1.7 times the wider regional benchmark. Conversely, public administration & safety constitutes 27.0% of local jobs compared to 30.4% across the broader territory. Comparing Census counts of resident workers against locally based employment reveals that a significant proportion of the workforce travels outside the neighbourhood for work. Synthesized ABS and SALM metrics indicate that over the 12-month period, local employment expanded by 0.8% alongside a 1.1% increase in the labour force, resulting in a 0.3 percentage points uptick in unemployment. Across Australian Capital Territory, employment increased by 0.3%, the labour pool expanded by 1.1%, and joblessness rose by 0.7 percentage points. Projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 indicate a nationwide workforce expansion of 6.6% across five years and 13.7% over ten years, though trajectories diverge by sector. When applied to Yarralumla's industry profile, these industry forecasts suggest local jobs could grow by 7.2% over five years and 14.5% over ten years (calculated as an illustrative weighted extrapolation excluding localized demographic variations).

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 — 29 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,120 at the 2021 Census → 3,230 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 (SAL80136). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
