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.

Yarra Valley has an estimated 17,097 residents, up from 16,799 at the 2021 Census — a change of 298 people, or 1.8%. 113 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Density is about 23 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, the resident count in Yarra Valley stands at roughly 17,097 as of Aug 2026. This represents an addition of 298 people (1.8%) compared to the 2021 Census, when 16,799 people were counted. This demographic shift is derived from the ABS estimated resident population figure of 17,087 as of June 2025 alongside 113 validated new addresses recorded post-Census. With 23 persons per square kilometer, the local density highlights an environment with substantial living room per resident. Recording 1.8% growth since census, Yarra Valley trails the broader SA3 area (3.6%) by 1.8 percentage points, maintaining sound demographic momentum.
The primary catalyst for local population expansion has been natural growth, accounting for roughly 58.0% of all recent demographic increases. SA2 projections utilized by AreaSearch stem from ABS/Geoscience Australia models published in 2024 using 2022 as their baseline year. Where local SA2 coverage is absent, figures draw upon the VIC State Government's Regional/LGA projections issued in 2023, adjusted via a population growth weighted aggregation approach from LGA down to SA2 boundaries. Age cohort growth rates derived from these series are similarly applied across all regions spanning 2032 to 2041. Long-term demographic expectations place the area within the lower quartile growth of statistical areas nationwide, with projections indicating a gain of 217 persons to 2041 under current annual ERP metrics, translating to an overall rise of 1.2% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
177 new dwellings have been approved in Yarra Valley over the past five years, an average of 35 a year. That is 2.1 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 36 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 86% 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 building approvals across Yarra Valley have averaged roughly 35 new homes per annum, accumulating to 177 homes across the past 5 financial years. With an average addition of only 0.5 new residents per year per dwelling constructed over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), residential delivery is keeping pace with or exceeding local requirements, broadening opportunities for purchasers and creating capacity for population growth to surpass existing forecasts, alongside an average building cost of $475,000 per dwelling. Furthermore, commercial building approvals reached $16.9 million this financial year, pointing to a moderate volume of non-residential development.
Per capita residential building approvals in Yarra Valley track at roughly two-thirds the level observed across Greater Melbourne, situating the precinct in the 33rd percentile nationally and generating tighter purchasing conditions that bolster demand for established properties. Tracking below the Australian benchmark, this approval rate reflects a mature residential landscape and potential local planning constraints. Building activity is heavily concentrated in standalone houses, with 86.0% detached dwellings compared to 14.0% townhouses or apartments, sustaining the low-density urban form and drawing buyers looking for spacious housing. A ratio of roughly 475 people per dwelling approval underlines the area's subdued construction pipeline. Moving forward, projections from the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimate indicate that Yarra Valley will add 207 residents through to 2041. Under prevailing construction volumes, forthcoming residential completions appear well positioned to satisfy demand, fostering favorable buyer dynamics and offering potential support for growth above current demographic forecasts.

Hereford Road Childcare Centre and Development Site
A planning permit for a 104-place childcare centre on a 5014 sqm site at 19-23 Hereford Road, Mount Evelyn was approved by VCAT on 4 December 2024, following a Council refusal that was overturned on appeal. The application, lodged by Planning Property Partners, originally also proposed a 24/7 McDonald's restaurant on the site, but the fast-food component was refused by Council and the refusal was upheld by VCAT. The childcare centre occupies about 43 percent of the supersite, which retains a development scheme allowing for an additional quick-service restaurant / fast-food outlet subject to further approval.The property was the site of Pro Futsal Mt Evelyn, a sports complex and physiotherapy clinic, held on a lease expiring 31 December 2025. The site was taken to market via Expressions of Interest closing 2 July 2025 through Burgess Rawson and Teska Carson, and has since sold; the purchaser has not been publicly disclosed. No construction start date has been confirmed.
8,499 residents of Yarra Valley are employed, from a labour force of 9,103. Unemployment sits at 6.6%, with participation at 64.3%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.0% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 14,407, about 84% 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
The local labor market in Yarra Valley displays an even distribution between blue and white collar roles, marked by substantial employment concentrations in construction, an unemployment rate of 6.6%, and an estimated employment expansion of 0.9% over the preceding year. Total employed residents reached 8,499 as of March 2026, while the jobless rate sits 1.9% higher than the Greater Melbourne benchmark of 4.8%, accompanied by subdued labor force engagement (64.3% versus 70.1% across Greater Melbourne). Census findings showed a moderate 18.9% of workers operating from home, though figures should be considered alongside Covid-19 lockdown circumstances.
Key industries supporting local employment feature construction, health care & social assistance, and manufacturing. Notably, the construction industry displays strong representation, capturing a workforce proportion 1.9 times greater than the broader regional benchmark. In contrast, professional & technical occupations account for a modest 4.4% of resident workers, underperforming the 10.1% regional standard. Comparison between the resident workforce and the Census working population indicates a constrained volume of local employment within the boundary. Analysis by AreaSearch utilizing ABS and SALM figures indicates that during the 12 months to March 2026, total employment rose by 0.9% alongside a 1.8% expansion in the labour force, pushing the unemployment rate up by 0.8 percentage points. In comparison, Greater Melbourne recorded a 2.1% increase in employment, a 2.3% rise in the labour force, and a 0.2 percentage points lift in unemployment. Future local employment trajectories can be gauged against Jobs and Skills Australia national forecasts from Mar-26 mapped to the local sectoral profile. While nationwide projections anticipate employment growth of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, sector-level performance varies widely. Applying these industry growth rates to the Yarra Valley employment baseline indicates potential local job gains of 6.0% over five years and 12.7% over ten years (calculated via simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes without factoring in 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 — 113 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (16,799 at the 2021 Census → 17,097 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.
