The 29 growth area LGAs, located in outer metropolitan and peri-urban areas across Australia’s capital cities have accommodated over 30% of Australia’s population growth this century. This map shows the size of population, rate of population growth and number of building approvals, compared to neighbouring inner and middle-ring councils.
The National Growth Areas Alliance Community Profile provides demographic analysis for the Region and its suburbs based on results from the 2021, 2019, 2016, 2011, 2006, 2001, 1996 and 1991 Censuses of Population and Housing. The profile is updated with population estimates when the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) releases new figures.
