According to recently released ABS data (September 2025), Australia’s population reached 27.7 million, growing by 423,600 people (1.6%) over the year. Victoria recorded the largest population increase of any state, adding around 122,000 people (1.7%), ahead of Queensland (~108,000) and New South Wales (~106,000) — reinforcing Melbourne’s role as a primary destination for population growth.
Depending on how city boundaries are defined, Melbourne has already overtaken Sydney as Australia’s largest city — while on others, that shift is still projected ahead.
For property buyers — whether owner occupiers or investors — the opportunity lies in understanding the broader growth trends across the metropolitan area and a range of locations, while also staying ahead of Victoria’s policy development and strategic direction.
New policy settings point to just some of the areas where additional housing, investment and opportunities are likely to be supported over time.
