2019 NSW Population Projections

Data files and papers for the 2019 release of the NSW population projections. These projections are an update of the 2016 NSW population projections. They also account for findings from the 2016 Census of Population and Housing and final Estimated Resident Populations (ERPs) published by the Australian Bureau of Statistics. In addition, they include the latest information about births, deaths and migration at the time of release. These projections have since been superseded. The latest release (at November 2025) is the 2024 NSW population projections, published in November 2024. The 2024 projections are available at https://www.planning.nsw.gov.au/data-and-insights/population-projections. Official NSW population projections are updated twice in a five-year cycle. The schedule for these updates is linked to the timing of Australia's census.
