This analysis uses ABS Statistical Areas Level 2 (SA2) boundaries, which can materially differ from Suburbs and Localities (SAL) even when sharing similar names.
SA2 boundaries are defined by the Australian Bureau of Statistics and are designed to represent communities for statistical reporting (e.g., census and ERP).
Suburbs and Localities (SAL) represent commonly-used suburb/locality names (postal-style areas) and may use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

This represents a gain of 394 residents (9.7%) compared to the 2021 Census, which registered 4,051 individuals.

The area's 9.7% expansion rate since the 2021 census outpaced the state average of 4.0% and the Rest of Tas.
region, establishing it as a local growth leader. This demographic expansion was mostly driven by arrivals from abroad, who represented roughly 49.5% of the total population increase, though interstate arrivals and natural expansion also registered positive gains. AreaSearch utilizes projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024, using 2022 as their starting point. Where this data is unavailable, or to calculate age distribution shifts after 2032, regional projections from the Tasmania State Government released in 2022 with a 2021 baseline are applied, adjusted via weighted aggregation of population shifts from local government areas to the SA2 level. Based on these anticipated demographic changes, population growth is projected to exceed the median for national regional zones, with the local population expected to expand by 587 residents by 2041 relative to the latest annual ERP statistics, representing a overall increase of 12.4% over this 16-year timeframe.

1,855 residents of Geeveston - Dover are employed, from a labour force of 1,926. Unemployment sits at 3.7%, with participation at 50.9%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.3% nationally over five years.

Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Geeveston - Dover has a skilled workforce with diverse sector representation and an unemployment rate of only 3.7%. Estimated employment growth over the past year stands at 11.1%. As of March 2026, 1,855 residents are in work. The unemployment rate is 0.3% below Regional Tas.'s rate of 3.9%. Workforce participation lags significantly at 50.9% compared to Regional Tas.'s 58.8%. Based on Census responses, a moderate 14.0% of residents were found to work from home. Covid-19 lockdown impacts should be considered when interpreting these figures. Local employment is largely centered in agriculture, forestry & fishing, health care & social assistance, and education & training.
The agricultural sector is particularly prominent, employing residents at 3.1 times the average rate seen across the region. Conversely, health care & social assistance remains underrepresented, accounting for only 11.2% of local workers compared to 16.5% across Regional Tas. A comparison between the local Census working population and resident labor force suggests that the area offers a relatively low volume of local job opportunities. Based on analysis of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch, the 12-month timeframe saw a job increase of 11.1% alongside a 10.7% growth in the labor force, leading to a 0.4 percentage point decline in the unemployment rate. Over the same period, Regional Tas. recorded a 1.8% rise in employment and a 1.7% expansion in the labor force, accompanied by a minor decrease in the jobless rate. National workforce projections published by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 offer additional context on future demand patterns in Geeveston - Dover. These five and ten-year forecasts have been aligned with the local industry profile to estimate potential growth. While overall national employment is expected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, projected expansion rates vary widely by industry. Weighting these national sector projections against the local employment distribution suggests that local employment could grow by 5.3% over five years and 11.7% over ten years, though this simple weighting calculation does not incorporate 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 — 154 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (4,051 at the 2021 Census → 4,445 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 May 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 (603021071). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
