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
Carnarvon has an estimated 5,306 residents, up from 4,879 at the 2021 Census — a change of 427 people, or 8.8%. Growth has averaged 0.7% a year over five years. Overseas migration accounts for 74.7% of that increase. Density is about 68 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 AreaSearch's calculations, Carnarvon has a population of approximately 5,306 as of May 2026. This represents a gain of 427 individuals (8.8%) from the 4,879 people counted in the 2021 Census. The calculation is based on the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population of 5,306 combined with 47 validated new addresses registered since the Census. This population translates to a density of 67 persons per square kilometer, indicating low density and potential space for expansion. Carnarvon's 8.8% growth rate since the 2021 census outpaced the SA4 region's 8.2%, making it a regional growth leader.
The primary driver of this population increase was overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 74.7% of the total growth during recent times. AreaSearch implements projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for every SA2 area, using 2022 as the baseline year for data published in 2024. For SA2 areas without this data, and for projecting growth beyond 2032, AreaSearch applies age cohort growth rates from the latest ABS Greater Capital Region projections published in 2023 using 2022 data. Future demographic patterns suggest a population growth rate slightly under the median for regional Australia, with the local population projected to increase by 530 residents to 2041 based on the most recent annual ERP statistics, representing a 10.0% total increase over the 16-year timeframe.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
56 new dwellings have been approved in Carnarvon over the past five years, an average of 11 a year. That places the area in the 57th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 2 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 1, 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
Carnarvon averages approximately 11 residential building approvals annually, with 56 approvals granted over the last 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, and 1 approval recorded so far in FY-26. With an average of 3.4 new residents added per constructed home over the 5 financial years between FY-21 and FY-25, construction is failing to match demand, which typically intensifies buyer competition and drives prices upward, while newly constructed homes average $431,000 in value, showing that builders are targeting the higher-end market. Furthermore, commercial approvals totaling $21.7 million have been logged for the current financial year, indicating steady non-residential development.
Building activity in Carnarvon is substantially lower than in the Rest of WA, running 64.0% below the regional per capita average. This restricted level of new supply typically helps maintain demand and pricing for existing properties, although construction has recently increased. This building rate is also lower than the national average, suggesting a mature market or potential local development constraints. Recent home building consists of 36.0% detached houses and 64.0% multi-dwelling units like townhouses or apartments. The emphasis on higher-density options offers more budget-friendly choices suitable for down-sizers, property investors, and first-time buyers. This represents a major shift from the existing housing stock, which currently has 79.0% houses, showing a shortage of development land and responding to changing preferences and affordability. The ratio of 721 people in the area for every building approval indicates a quiet local construction market. Demographic forecasts project that Carnarvon will add 530 residents by 2041 based on the latest quarterly figures from AreaSearch. If building activity remains at its current pace, housing construction might fail to meet the population growth, which could increase competition among home buyers and support higher property values.

2,578 residents of Carnarvon are employed, from a labour force of 2,757. Unemployment sits at 6.5%, with participation at 64.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.3% 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 workforce in Carnarvon features a balanced mix of professional and manual labor, with strong representation in public services, an unemployment rate of 6.5%, and an annual job growth rate estimated at 3.5%. As of March 2026, 2,578 local residents are employed, with the unemployment rate tracking 3.0% higher than the Regional WA average of 3.5%, while labor force participation is close to the Regional WA level of 65.6%. Census data indicates that a modest 10.8% of workers performed their roles from home, though the influence of pandemic lockdowns should be kept in mind.
The primary employment sectors for local workers are agriculture, forestry & fishing, health care & social assistance, and retail trade. The region shows a strong concentration in agriculture, forestry & fishing, which employs people at 2.1 times the rate seen across the region. Conversely, the mining sector has a minimal local footprint, employing 5.8% of the workforce compared to 11.7% regionally. Although there are local employment options, the ratio of Census workers to the local population indicates that many residents travel outside the area for employment. Based on analysis of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch, employment grew by 3.5% and the labor force expanded by 3.2% over the 12-month period, leading to a 0.2 percentage point decrease in the unemployment rate. In contrast, Regional WA saw employment fall by 0.1% and the labor force grow by 0.3%, resulting in a 0.4 percentage point rise in unemployment. National forecasts released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 provide context for future labor demand in Carnarvon. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce structure to model potential growth. Although nationwide employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rates of change vary by sector. Applying these national industry trends to Carnarvon's specific workforce mix suggests local employment could grow by 5.3% over five years and 11.7% over ten years, though this is a basic weighted projection for illustration and does not incorporate local population forecasts.

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 — 47 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (4,879 at the 2021 Census → 5,306 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 (511021276). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
