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
Gordon (Vic.) has an estimated 6,632 residents, up from 6,372 at the 2021 Census — a change of 260 people, or 4.1%. Growth has averaged 1.0% a year over five years. 164 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Fewer than ten people live on each square kilometre, across a boundary that takes in surrounding rural land. 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 investigations by AreaSearch, the population of Gordon stands at approximately 6,632 as of May 2026. This indicates an expansion of 260 individuals (4.1%) from the 2021 Census, which recorded 6,372 residents. This shift is calculated using the ABS estimated resident population of 6,557 from June 2025 alongside 164 validated new addresses registered since the Census. With these figures, the region has a density ratio of 7.8 persons per square kilometer, offering residents substantial personal space. The 4.1% rate of growth in Gordon since the 2021 census outpaced the broader SA3 area (2.7%), positioning the locality as a regional leader in expansion.
Natural increase was the primary contributor to this upward trend, accounting for about 48.0% of the overall population rise during recent timeframes, though all expansion components, including interstate migration and overseas migration, recorded positive contributions. For each SA2 locality, AreaSearch applies projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024 using 2022 as the baseline. For any SA2 regions lacking this coverage, projections are derived from the 2023 VIC State Government Regional/LGA dataset, adapted via a weighted aggregation methodology that scales population growth from the LGA level to the SA2 level. The age group growth rates obtained through these aggregations are also projected across all localities for the period spanning 2032 to 2041. Looking at upcoming demographic trends, the methodology forecasts a downward trajectory in the overall population, with a projected reduction of 123 persons by 2041. Conversely, expansion is predicted within particular age cohorts, led by residents aged 25 to 34, who are expected to increase in number by 173 people. Refer to the age section for further details.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
171 new dwellings have been approved in Gordon (Vic.) over the past five years, an average of 34 a year. That places the area in the 54th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 5 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 26 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 100% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 21, well below 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
Yearly residential approvals in Gordon average about 34, culminating in a total of 171 homes over the previous 5 financial years. In the current FY-26 period, 20 approvals have been documented so far. With an average of 1.8 new residents added annually per built home over the past 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), the residential market exhibits a healthy equilibrium between supply and demand, fostering stable market dynamics. Newly built properties have an average construction cost of $450,000, indicating that builders are prioritizing high-end developments in the premium segment.
Additionally, $3.5 million in commercial building approvals have been registered this financial year, reinforcing the residential focus of the locality. In comparison to the Rest of Vic., the per-capita rate of new dwelling approvals in Gordon is approximately three-quarters, ranking it in the 62nd percentile of all evaluated areas nationwide. Furthermore, recent building activity has consisted entirely of detached houses, preserving the low density residential character of the area with a focus on family households seeking spacious living. With a ratio of roughly 238 people per approval, Gordon showcases its low density urban footprint. Given that the local population is projected to stabilize or decrease, Gordon is likely to experience less pressure on housing stock, which may open up opportunities for property buyers.

3,666 residents of Gordon (Vic.) are employed, from a labour force of 3,741. Unemployment sits at 2.0%, with participation at 68.9%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.1% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 5,354, about 81% 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
Gordon features a skilled labor force, with the construction sector showing exceptionally strong representation, a low unemployment rate of 2.0%, and a stable jobs environment over the past year. In March 2026, employed residents numbered 3,666, while the local unemployment rate sat 1.7% below the Regional Vic. rate of 3.7%. Workforce participation is also significantly elevated, standing at 68.9% compared to 61.1% in Regional Vic. According to Census data, a moderate 22.3% of the working population performed their duties from home, though this figure may have been influenced by COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
Most working residents are employed in construction, health care & social assistance, and agriculture, forestry & fishing. The local economy shows a distinct concentration in construction, where employment is 1.4 times the regional average. Conversely, health care & social assistance is underrepresented, employing 13.0% of the workforce compared to 16.8% across the region. Local job opportunities within the area appear limited, as shown by comparing the count of the Census working population against the resident population. According to AreaSearch's evaluation of SALM and ABS statistics, the year ending March 2026 saw local employment levels remain unchanged at 0.0%, while the labor force expanded by 0.4%, leading to a 0.4 percentage point rise in the unemployment rate. Over the same timeframe in Regional Vic., employment declined by 0.1%, the labor force shrunk by 0.3%, and the unemployment rate decreased by 0.2 percentage points. National employment projections from May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia provide further context regarding future demand trends in Gordon. These five and ten-year projections have been integrated with local employment structures to project potential patterns of growth. Nationally, employment is predicted to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though expansion rates vary significantly across different industry sectors. Applying these sectoral growth projections to Gordon's employment profile indicates that local jobs could increase by 6.1% over five years and 12.7% over ten years (note that this is a basic weighted extrapolation for demonstration purposes and does not incorporate local 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 — 164 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (6,372 at the 2021 Census → 6,632 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 (201021012). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
