Data about population growth and change from 2016-2041 is now available


Every five years, the Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure prepares population projections for South Australia.

Population projections help to estimate the size, age structure and distribution of South Australia’s population in the future. This information is fundamental to urban, transport and infrastructure planning.

DPTI has recently completed population projections for the period 2016-41, assisted by an across-government Joint Population Planning Committee (JPPC) which was formed in early 2019. High, medium and low series of projections are now available for download.
