Suburb profile

Springfield is an outer metropolitan suburb of Sydney, in Central Coast Council. It is primarily residential, without a particularly distinct commercial centre or landmark identity.

Employment is slightly stronger than in comparable places, with employment 9% above the peer median. Green cover is an exceptional strength, placing it among the highest-ranked outer metropolitan suburbs, and population has been growing faster than in comparable places, and recorded road crashes are a relative strength, with recorded road crashes 33% below the peer median. Trade-offs centre on higher crime and thinner park access, with park access 62% below the peer median.

Springfield's appeal is better explained by housing, access and location than by a strong standalone precinct or destination.

Generated from the official metrics on this page. It can omit nuance or contain errors — check the tables and source notes before relying on it.

ABS Estimated Resident Population allocated to this suburb from SA2-level data. Not an official ABS suburb count.

Methodology

Figures are allocated from ABS Estimated Resident Population at Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2), using 2021 Census share within overlapping SA2 regions. Where Census data is unavailable, area overlap is used instead.

The dashed chart line is a simple growth-trend estimate to June 2030 (~5,250), extrapolated at +1.5% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.

IRSD decile (2021)
5/10

ABS Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA), 2021 release — the latest available, derived from the 2021 Census. Deciles rank suburbs nationally from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).

What do IRSAD and IRSD measure?

IRSAD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. Combines indicators of advantage (e.g. high income, skilled occupations) and disadvantage. Higher decile = more advantaged relative to other Australian areas.

IRSD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage. Focuses on disadvantage only (e.g. low income, unemployment, limited education). Higher decile = less disadvantage nationally.

A new SEIFA edition typically follows each census; the ABS has not announced a release date beyond 2021.
