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.

Sales Detail
Beechworth has an estimated 4,964 residents. Density is about 13 people per 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
According to research conducted by AreaSearch, Beechworth has a recorded population of approximately 4,964 as of Aug 2026. Compared to the 4,986 people tallied in the 2021 Census, this indicates a reduction of 22 people (0.4%). This demographic shift is calculated using the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population figure of 4,962 along with 62 validated new addresses recorded following the Census date. With these numbers, the local population density stands at 13.4 persons per square kilometer, ensuring considerable personal space for inhabitants. In recent times, population increases were predominantly supported by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 70.6% of total population additions.
Projections for each SA2 district applied by AreaSearch originate from 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia datasets using 2022 as their baseline year. Whenever SA2 locations lack direct coverage in this release, AreaSearch integrates 2023 VIC State Government Regional/LGA projections, applying a weighted aggregation technique to translate LGA growth patterns down to the SA2 level. Furthermore, age-specific growth trajectories derived from these aggregations are utilized for all territories over the 2032 to 2041 timeframe. Anticipated demographic trends point toward population growth that exceeds the national regional median, with the community projected to add 953 persons to 2041 according to the latest annual ERP data, representing a cumulative increase of 19.2% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
112 new dwellings have been approved in Beechworth over the past five years, an average of 22 a year. That is 4.5 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 22 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 95% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Residential planning permissions in Beechworth have averaged approximately 22 dwellings yearly, culminating in 112 homes approved over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26). Over this same span of the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), an average of just 0.2 people arrived annually per newly completed residence, indicating that homebuilding is keeping pace with or exceeding local requirements. This trend expands options for purchasers and creates room for demographic expansion beyond baseline forecasts, while building activity reflects an average expected construction cost of $604,000, pointing to builder emphasis on higher-end, premium housing.
Additionally, commercial development approvals reached $7.7 million this financial year, underscoring the predominantly residential focus of the locality. Per-capita building volume in Beechworth stands at roughly 75% of the level seen across Rest of Vic., placing it in the 66th percentile among evaluated regions across the country. In terms of dwelling composition, detached dwellings account for 95.0% of new projects, while townhouses or apartments make up 5.0%, preserving a low-density suburban landscape oriented toward freestanding properties that appeal to buyers wanting extra space. With approximately 187 people per approval, the district clearly maintains a low-density profile. According to forward-looking demographic projections, Beechworth is on track to welcome 951 residents through to 2041 (utilizing the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimate). Should building approvals continue at current paces, residential development could find it challenging to satisfy incoming demand, which may increase buyer competition and place upward pressure on property values.

2,426 residents of Beechworth are employed, from a labour force of 2,490. Unemployment sits at 2.6%, with participation at 59.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% 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
The local labour market in Beechworth is supported by a highly qualified resident workforce, considerable activity across essential service domains, and an unemployment rate standing at only 2.6%. Working residents numbered 2,426 as of March 2026, while local unemployment sits 1.1% below the 3.7% recorded across Regional Vic., and overall labour force involvement aligns closely with the Regional Vic. benchmark of 61.1%. In the Census returns, a moderate 22.7% of employed individuals indicated working from home, though this figure should be interpreted in the context of Covid-19 restrictions. The top industry sectors employing local residents are health care & social assistance, education & training, alongside public administration & safety.
A notable concentration exists in public administration & safety, where the area's workforce concentration is 1.6 times the regional level. In contrast, the construction industry is less prominent locally, accounting for 7.7% of jobs relative to the 10.4% regional benchmark. Comparing Census resident worker totals against the local working population suggests that opportunities for internal employment remain somewhat constrained. AreaSearch's evaluation of ABS and SALM metrics indicates that in the 12 months to March 2026, the available workforce shrank by 2.0% while employment contracted by 2.1%, driving a 0.2 percentage points climb in the local jobless rate. Across Regional Vic., by comparison, employment reduced by 0.1%, the workforce reduced by 0.3%, and unemployment went down by 0.2 percentage points. Longer-term employment expectations from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide additional context regarding future labour demand in Beechworth. These five and ten-year forecasts have been synthesized with the local sectoral makeup to evaluate prospective growth paths. While overall Australian employment is anticipated to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, projected expansion varies widely by sector. When applying these specific industry trajectories to Beechworth's local profile, workplace growth is modeled at 6.3% over five years and 13.5% over ten years (note that this represents a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not incorporate localized 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 — 62 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (4,986 at the 2021 Census → 4,964 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 (204031068). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
