Suburb profile

South Yarra is a mixed commercial-residential suburb of Melbourne, in Stonnington Council, characterised by heritage listings alongside dense residential and commercial development. Notable landmarks include Christ Church, Church Street Bridge and Braille Library & Hall.

Convenience is one of the suburb's strongest attributes, with better access to shops and everyday services than in most comparable places. University qualifications are among the highest in the peer group, with university qualifications 11% above the peer median, and green cover is an exceptional strength, placing it among the highest-ranked mixed commercial-residential suburbs. The clearer weaknesses are higher housing costs and relatively limited childcare access, with median house prices 24% above the peer median.

South Yarra is a better fit for people who value city life and university qualifications more than lower housing costs.

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 (~32,750), extrapolated at +2.6% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.

IRSD decile (2021)

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.
