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
Yea has an estimated 4,368 residents, up from 4,182 at the 2021 Census — a change of 186 people, or 4.4%. Growth has averaged 1.7% a year over five years. 111 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 Yea stands at approximately 4,368 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 186 residents (4.4%) from the 4,182 individuals recorded during the 2021 Census. This population shift is calculated using the ABS estimated resident population of 4,368 for June 2025 alongside 111 validated new addresses registered since the Census. Such a population size results in a density of 3.0 persons per square kilometer, which ensures residents have plenty of space. The 4.4% expansion rate of Yea since the 2021 census was higher than the 2.9% observed in the SA4 region, as well as the Rest of Vic., positioning the area as a regional growth leader.
The primary driver of these population increases was interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 79.6% of the total gains in recent times. Projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia, published in 2024 with 2022 as the base year, are used by AreaSearch for each SA2 area. Where data is unavailable for certain SA2 areas, AreaSearch uses Regional/LGA projections from the VIC State Government released in 2023, modified using weighted aggregation of population expansion from LGA to SA2 levels. The age group growth rates derived from these aggregations are also applied to all areas for the years 2032 to 2041. Looking at future demographic trends, the area is projected to experience strong growth that places it in the top 10 percent of regional areas in Australia, with an expected increase of 2,060 people by 2041 based on the latest annual ERP figures, representing a 47.2% total rise over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
171 new dwellings have been approved in Yea over the past five years, an average of 34 a year. That places the area in the 64th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 8 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 25 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 100% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 36, 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
In Yea, approximately 34 new residential dwellings receive approval each year, with 171 approvals recorded over the last 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) and 33 recorded during FY-26 so far. An average of 2 new residents was added for each constructed dwelling over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), suggesting robust demand that should help maintain property values, with new homes showing an average building cost of $358,000. Additionally, commercial approvals reached $1.7 million during the current financial year, representing a low level of commercial construction.
Yea records similar per-person construction rates to the Rest of Vic., which helps maintain market stability in line with regional trends. Furthermore, standalone houses made up the entirety of new construction, preserving the traditional low-density profile of the area with a focus on family residences suited to people wanting extra space. The area averages roughly 174 people for every dwelling approval, pointing to a low-density residential market. Demographic forecasts indicate Yea will add 2,060 residents by 2041 (calculated from the latest quarterly estimate by AreaSearch). If current building volumes remain unchanged, residential supply may not keep pace with population growth, which is likely to increase buyer competition and support upward price trends.

The planning phase, which began in Q2 2025, will get the project designed and construction-ready, with the Victorian School Building Authority confirming that construction itself remains subject to future funding. The school shared in a $10 million state government allocation across the 2025-26 State Budget, split between 20 Victorian schools for planning and design of future upgrades.This planning project is separate from the school's Modular Classrooms Program works (2 double-storey and 2 single-storey classroom buildings plus toilet blocks), which are separately funded and due for completion by Q1 2027.
2,076 residents of Yea are employed, from a labour force of 2,178. Unemployment sits at 4.7%, with participation at 56.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.6% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 3,886, about 89% 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 workforce in Yea is characterized by skilled residents, particularly within the construction industry, alongside an unemployment rate of 4.7%. As of March 2026, employed residents numbered 2,076, while the unemployment rate was 1.0% higher than the Regional Vic. rate of 3.7%, and the participation rate of 56.7% was lower than the Regional Vic. standard of 61.1%. Census details indicate a moderate 23.7% of the workforce operated from home, though this may have been influenced by COVID-19 lockdowns. The primary employment fields for local residents are agriculture, forestry & fishing, construction, and health care & social assistance.
The local economy shows a strong concentration in agriculture, forestry & fishing, where the employment share is 2.2 times the regional average. Conversely, health care & social assistance is under-represented, employing only 11.3% of the local workforce compared to 16.8% in Regional Vic.. The relationship between the Census working population and the resident population suggests that local job opportunities are limited. AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics shows that during the 12 months ending March 2026, the local labor force contracted by 2.4% while employment fell by 2.3%, leading to a 0.1 percentage point drop in the unemployment rate. This differed from Regional Vic., where employment fell by 0.1%, the labor force declined by 0.3%, and the unemployment rate decreased by 0.2 percentage points. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia dated May-25 offer additional perspective on future demand trends in Yea. These five and ten-year forecasts have been aligned with the local workforce profile to project growth. Nationally, employment is predicted to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though rates vary by sector. Applying these sector-specific forecasts to the employment structure of Yea indicates local employment could grow by 5.6% over five years and 12.1% over ten years (this represents 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 — 111 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (4,182 at the 2021 Census → 4,368 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 (204011062). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
