Data are available either for individual years or every fifth year, depending on the dataset and its source data. Where possible a 2023 estimate has been included based on the latest data published by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).
Data are available for the Estimated Resident Population, the components of population change, population age distribution, households and dwellings.
Victoria in Future 2023 (VIF2023) covers the period 2023 to 2051 for Victoria and the major regions.
It covers the period to 2036 for Local Government Areas and the statistical areas in the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS). The smallest area for projections is the Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2).
VIF2023 shows Victoria remains the fastest-growing state in the country with our population expected to reach 10.3 million by 2051.
The data provides projections and covers the following:
- Total population
- Components of population change
- Population by age and sex
- Households and household types
- Dwellings by occupancy
