Sales Detail
Youngtown has an estimated 4,477 residents, up from 4,315 at the 2021 Census — a change of 162 people, or 3.8%. Growth has averaged 0.7% a year over five years. 195 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. That puts 1,032 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
Youngtown's population stands at approximately 4,477 as of Aug 2026, according to AreaSearch evaluations combining post-Census validated new addresses and broader ABS demographic updates. Compared to the 4,315 residents recorded in the 2021 Census, this indicates an expansion of 162 people (3.8%). That trajectory builds upon the 4,411 resident population calculated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 ERP data release along with 195 validated new addresses added following the Census. The suburb of Youngtown exhibits a population density of 1,031 persons per square kilometer, aligning closely with broader AreaSearch benchmark locations.
Furthermore, the 3.8% increase achieved by the suburb of Youngtown since the 2021 census outpaced the wider SA3 area (2.8%), establishing it as a local growth frontrunner. Recent gains were overwhelmingly propelled by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 90.0% of the overall population rise. Projections for each SA2 area incorporate the 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia dataset anchored to 2022 as the base year. Where SA2 coverage is absent, as well as for post-2032 demographic projections by age cohort, AreaSearch utilizes the Tasmania State Government's Regional/LGA figures (released in 2022 using 2021 as the baseline) converted via weighted aggregation from LGA to SA2 divisions. Looking ahead, population growth in the suburb of Youngtown is slated to track marginally beneath the non-capital city median, with aggregated SA2-level figures projecting a rise of 226 persons by 2041, representing a 16-year total increase of 3.6%.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
299 new dwellings have been approved in Youngtown over the past five years, an average of 59 a year. That places the area in the 50th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 13 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 46 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 89% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 22, 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 mapped across statistical zones reveals that Youngtown averages roughly 59 approved residential dwellings annually, accumulating an estimated 299 residential approvals across the preceding 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), with 22 recorded to date during FY-25. Construction costs for these additions average $346,000 per dwelling. Residential supply continues to comfortably match or outstrip local needs, given a modest ratio of 0.7 additional residents per annum for each home built across the prior 5 financial years (spanning FY-21 to FY-25), widening buyer options and facilitating capacity for higher-than-anticipated population growth.
On the commercial front, approvals amounted to $4.0 million during this financial year, pointing to a restrained commercial development footprint. Per-capita building volume in Youngtown surpasses Rest of Tas. by 165.0%, underscoring substantial developer appetite and expanding market choices despite a recent moderation in construction tempo. This pace also substantially outstrips broader Australian benchmarks. In terms of property types, standalone houses comprise 89.0% of new projects while attached homes make up 11.0%, reinforcing the established low-density suburban landscape oriented toward spacious family living. The area averages roughly 173 people per dwelling approval, highlighting an uncrowded residential market. According to the latest quarterly calculations from AreaSearch, Youngtown is slated to add 160 residents by 2041. Ongoing building trends indicate that the pipeline of incoming dwellings will readily satisfy accommodation needs, establishing advantageous market conditions for purchasers and creating headroom to accommodate population increases beyond baseline forecasts.

A civil works tender will be released, and land parcels are expected to be ready for sale in 2027. The project aims to address Tasmania's housing shortage and create inclusive communities.
2,170 residents of Youngtown are employed, from a labour force of 2,216. Unemployment sits at 2.1%, with participation at 60.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.5% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 3,447, about 77% 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
Youngtown features a capable labor pool with notable concentration across essential service domains and a remarkably low unemployment rate of 2.1%, based on aggregated statistical area metrics compiled by AreaSearch. In March 2026, employed residents numbered 2,170, while the local jobless rate sat 1.8% beneath the 3.9% recorded for Regional Tas. Labor participation stood at a standard 60.7%, slightly above the 58.7% benchmark across Regional Tas. In addition, Census data showed a modest 6.3% of workers operating from home, an estimate that may have been influenced by prevailing Covid-19 restrictions.
Local workers are predominantly engaged across health care & social assistance, retail trade, and education & training. By contrast, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 1.8% of the local workforce, trailing the 8.4% regional proportion. A comparison between Census working figures and resident worker totals indicates that this primarily residential district provides relatively few on-site workplace opportunities within its own borders. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS data, aggregated from broader statistical areas, the 12-month period saw labour force decreasing by 2.3% combined with employment decreasing by 2.3%, with unemployment remaining essentially unchanged. This contrasts with Regional Tas., where employment rose by 1.8%, the labour force grew by 1.7%, and unemployment fell marginally. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from Mar-26 can offer further insight into potential future demand within Youngtown. These projections, covering five and ten-year periods, have been mapped against the local employment profile to estimate growth patterns. While national employment is forecast to expand by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates differ significantly between industry sectors. Applying these industry-specific projections to Youngtown's employment mix suggests local employment should increase by 6.5% over five years and 13.7% over ten years (please note this is a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not take into account localised 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 — 195 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (4,315 at the 2021 Census → 4,477 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.
