Suburb profile

Toorak hums with inner-city energy, a established suburb where there is always something happening nearby. Long-term locals and family households define much of the community, with plenty of young families in the mix. Overseas-born and multilingual households are a noticeable part of the local population.

Education outcomes and school provision stand out relative to comparable suburbs. Local parks and tree cover add a welcome outdoor dimension to suburban life. Most routine trips are on foot, while buses, trams, and trains cover longer journeys across the metro area.

Homes cost more here than in most comparable suburbs. Recognised heritage character runs through the streets, with older fabric still defining local identity.

Against similar metro suburbs, community and employment stand out and the overall desirability rating is good, with safety less decisive.

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 (~13,450), extrapolated at -0.1% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.

IRSD decile (2021)
10/10

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.
