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.

Detail
According to the analysis by AreaSearch, the population of Longford is close to 4,716 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 288 people (6.5%) compared to the 2021 Census, which counted 4,428 residents. This population shift is calculated from the ABS estimated resident population of 4,684 in June 2025 alongside 148 validated new addresses recorded since the Census. Such population numbers result in a density of 21 persons per square kilometer, which offers residents plenty of personal space. Longford's 6.5% rate of expansion since the 2021 census outstripped both the state (4.0%) and its SA4 region, establishing it as a local growth frontrunner.
The primary driver of this population growth was interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 62.3% of the total demographic increase in recent times. AreaSearch utilizes the 2024 projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for SA2 tracts, which use 2022 as a starting point. In instances where SA2 areas lack this coverage, and to calculate age cohort growth beyond 2032, regional and LGA forecasts from the Tasmania State Government published in 2022 (using 2021 as a base year) are applied, modified through a weighted aggregation of population changes from LGA down to SA2 zones. Looking at upcoming demographic shifts, the region is projected to experience growth in line with the lower quartile of regional Australian areas, with expectations of adding 173 persons by 2041 according to recent annual ERP population statistics, signifying a total expansion of 3.0% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
191 new dwellings have been approved in Longford over the past five years, an average of 38 a year. That places the area in the 68th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 8 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 28 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 100% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 63, running ahead of that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Longford averages approximately 38 residential building approvals each year, with 191 dwellings approved over the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25) and 58 registered during FY-26 so far. An average influx of 1.8 people for every home constructed over the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25) points to a healthy balance between supply and demand that keeps the market steady, with recent figures indicating this ratio has dropped to 1.2 people per home over the past 2 financial years, showing improved supply levels. Newly built properties show an average construction cost of $248,000.
Additionally, commercial building approvals have reached $7.7 million during the current financial year, highlighting that the local area remains predominantly residential. In comparison to the Rest of Tas., building activity in Longford is slightly elevated (17.0% above the regional average per capita over the 5 year period), which helps maintain healthy options for purchasers while supporting demand for existing homes. Meanwhile, all new residential construction has consisted of detached houses, maintaining the low-density profile of the locality with a focus on separate homes that draw buyers looking for space. With roughly 130 people for every building approval, Longford shows characteristics of a developing area. Moving forward, Longford is projected to add 141 inhabitants by 2041 (derived from the most recent quarterly estimates by AreaSearch). With the current pace of development, the supply of new housing is expected to easily satisfy demand, creating favorable buyer conditions and potentially enabling growth that outpaces the current population forecasts.

2,188 residents of Longford are employed, from a labour force of 2,254. Unemployment sits at 2.9%, with participation at 56.9%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.8% 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
Longford has a diverse workforce composed of both white-collar and blue-collar workers, with a strong presence in the industrial and manufacturing sectors, and an unemployment rate sitting at only 2.9%. In March 2026, there were 2,188 employed residents, while the unemployment rate was 1.0% below the 3.9% recorded in Regional Tas., and the participation rate remained close to the Regional Tas. figure of 58.8%. Census data indicates that a modest 8.4% of workers operated from home, though the influence of Covid-19 lockdowns should be kept in mind. The primary sectors employing local residents are retail trade, health care & social assistance, and manufacturing.
The locality shows a distinct industrial concentration in manufacturing, where the proportion of jobs is 1.4 times the regional average. Conversely, education & training accounts for only 6.3% of the local workforce, which is lower than the 8.8% average for Regional Tas. The local area appears to provide a low number of jobs relative to its working population, as shown by comparing the count of local workers against resident workers from the Census. According to the AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics, the local labour force contracted by 1.5% and total employment fell by 1.1% over the 12 months ending March 2026, leading to a 0.4 percentage point reduction in the unemployment rate. This trend differed from Regional Tas., where employment expanded by 1.8%, the workforce grew by 1.7%, and the unemployment rate decreased slightly. National employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia issued in May-25 offer additional perspective on prospective workforce demand in Longford. These five-year and ten-year forecasts have been mapped against the local industry profile to estimate future trends. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rates of expansion vary greatly by sector. Applying these sector-specific forecasts to the employment distribution of Longford suggests local jobs could grow by 5.8% over five years and 12.6% over ten years (note that this represents a basic weighted extrapolation for demonstration purposes and 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 — 148 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (4,428 at the 2021 Census → 4,716 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.
