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
Based on AreaSearch's analysis, the population of Healesville - Yarra Glen is approximately 14,143 as of May 2026. Since the 2021 Census, which recorded 14,065 people, the population has grown by 78 residents, representing a 0.6% increase. This population adjustment is estimated from the ABS estimated resident population of 14,116 in June 2025 and 96 validated new addresses registered after the Census. This population level results in a density of 38 persons per square kilometer, which indicates a low density. The 0.6% growth rate in Healesville - Yarra Glen since the census is 2.9 percentage points lower than the 3.5% growth rate observed in the wider SA3 region, indicating competitive growth.
Net population growth in recent times was driven mostly by overseas migration, which accounted for approximately 75.6% of the gains. AreaSearch implements ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for individual SA2 regions, published in 2024 with a 2022 baseline. For SA2 areas where these data are unavailable, AreaSearch applies Regional/LGA projections released by the VIC State Government in 2023, adjusted using a weighted aggregation method of population growth from LGA to SA2 tiers. The age group growth rates derived from these aggregations are applied to all areas for the period 2032 to 2041. Future demographic trends point to a population growth rate slightly below the national median, with the region projected to add 713 people by 2041 compared to the most recent annual ERP statistics, which is an overall increase of 4.8% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
203 new dwellings have been approved in Healesville - Yarra Glen over the past five years, an average of 40 a year. That is 2.9 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 29 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 76% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 39, broadly in line with 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
Approvals for new dwellings in Healesville - Yarra Glen average approximately 40 per year. Over the last 5 financial years (FY-21 to FY-25), 203 dwellings received approvals, with 36 approved so far during FY-26. Given the declining population in recent years, this level of development activity is relatively sufficient, offering opportunities for buyers, with new homes constructed at an average cost of $340,000. Additionally, commercial development approvals reached $29.3 million this financial year, showing strong local commercial investment. Compared to Greater Melbourne, building approvals per resident in Healesville - Yarra Glen are about three-quarters of the metropolitan level, placing the area in the 34th percentile of all assessed locations nationwide.
This creates restricted choices for buyers and supports interest in existing housing. The volume is also below the national average, highlighting the mature state of the area and indicating potential planning constraints. Approved new developments consist of 76.0% detached houses and 24.0% townhouses or apartments, which maintains the low-density profile of the area and attracts buyers seeking space. This represents a change from the current housing stock (92.0% houses), suggesting a shrinking supply of vacant land, shifting lifestyle preferences, and a demand for more diverse and affordable housing options. The ratio of 502 people per single dwelling approval highlights a quiet development environment. Looking ahead, the population of Healesville - Yarra Glen is projected to increase by 686 residents by 2041, based on the latest quarterly estimates from AreaSearch. Current building volumes indicate that housing supply is on track to meet this demand, creating favourable conditions for buyers and potentially supporting growth that outpaces current projections.

Lilydale Food Waste to Energy Facility
A $48 million anaerobic digestion facility built at Yarra Valley Water's Lilydale Sewage Treatment Plant, processing approximately 55,000 tonnes of commercial food waste annually. The facility generates up to 39,000 kilowatt hours of electricity per day - around 35 per cent of Yarra Valley Water's energy needs - powering the facility itself and the adjacent Lilydale Sewage Treatment Plant, with surplus exported to the grid. It reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 24,700 tonnes per year (equivalent to removing 23,000 cars from the road).The facility received its first commercial food waste delivery in late 2025 and is ramping up operations, with electricity generation expected to begin in early 2026 and full operational capacity reached over the following year. Day-to-day operations are managed by Yarra Valley Water's partner company ReWaste.
7,158 residents of Healesville - Yarra Glen are employed, from a labour force of 7,509. Unemployment sits at 4.7%, with participation at 63.8%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 12,825, about 91% 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
Healesville - Yarra Glen is characterised by a skilled labour force, with particularly strong representation in the construction sector. The unemployment rate stands at 4.7%, and employment grew by an estimated 1.3% over the past year. In March 2026, there were 7,158 employed residents. The unemployment rate is comparable to the 4.8% recorded across Greater Melbourne, while the workforce participation rate of 63.8% is notably lower than the metropolitan average of 70.2%. Census data indicates that 23.6% of employed residents worked from home, though this figure may reflect the influence of Covid-19 restrictions.
The largest sectors of employment for local residents are construction, health care & social assistance, and manufacturing. The area displays a strong specialization in construction, with its employment share in this industry running at 1.7 times the regional average. In contrast, the professional & technical sector is underrepresented, accounting for 5.3% of workers compared to the regional share of 10.1%. A comparison between the local working population at the Census and the resident workforce suggests that local job opportunities are relatively limited. According to AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics for the 12 months ending March 2026, local employment grew by 1.3% while the labour force expanded by 1.9%, leading to a 0.5 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. Over the same period, Greater Melbourne recorded employment growth of 2.1% and labour force growth of 2.3%, resulting in a 0.2 percentage point rise in unemployment. National employment projections for the five- and ten-year horizons from May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia help clarify future local demand patterns. By matching these national projections against local industry distributions, local employment is modeled to grow by 5.9% over five years and 12.5% over ten years. This calculation is a basic weighted extrapolation to show potential trends and does not incorporate local population projections. Nationwide, employment is forecast to increase by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with performance varying widely by sector.

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 — 96 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (14,065 at the 2021 Census → 14,143 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 (211051276). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
