A single suburb, as the publisher names it.
Completions over the same period were equivalent to 91% of commencements, for Victoria. These figures compare pipeline flows and do not track individual approved dwellings through construction.
Achieved rents moved +4.7% over the year, against +4.6% for the middle suburb in Victoria.
Each of these is a separate reading with its own rule and its own figures, set out under Housing Balance below. There is deliberately no single score: one number would hide which of them was doing the work.
At $450 a week, Traralgon is higher than 9% of the 146 VIC suburbs we hold.
Rents there are up 4.7% over the past year, about the same as the typical VIC suburb (up 4.5%).
Based on 813 new leases, which is a large enough sample to be steady quarter to quarter.
Moving annual median, being the median across every lease signed in the preceding twelve months, which is smoother than a quarterly figure and lags one. Every point is a figure the publisher published; nothing between them is filled in.

Victoria publishes no openly licensed sale prices at this level, so there is no yield here rather than one built on a value we would have to model.
Only New South Wales publishes rent quartiles, so the spread of rents within this market is not shown.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics publishes population and dwelling approvals by council area, not by suburb, and a suburb is not one of its statistical areas. Rather than report a neighbouring boundary’s figures as this market’s, neither is shown here.
Where housing demand is coming from, how quickly supply is being delivered, and how rents are responding. Six readings, each with the figures behind it and the rule that turned those figures into a word. None of them says a market is short of housing: that needs household formation, which APRIQ does not hold, and is not estimated here.
No population or migration evidence can be mapped to Traralgon. No measurement and no defensible mapping for a suburb. Broader evidence for Victoria is shown where it exists.

How much housing is being finished, against how much is being started.
| Dwellings completed, Victoria | 12,220 | March quarter 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Dwellings started, Victoria | 13,437 | March quarter 2026 |
| Completions as a share of commencements | 91% | March quarter 2026 |
Strong at or above 95% of commencements, weak below 80%, moderate in between, over the same twelve months. Completions during the period compared with commencements during the period — these figures compare pipeline flows and do not track individual approved dwellings through construction.
Moderate
How fast achieved rents are rising, against the rest of the state.
| Rent change over a year, Traralgon | +4.7% | the twelve months to September 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Rent change over a year, the middle suburb in Victoria | +4.6% | the twelve months to September 2025 |
High when rents rose at least one percentage point faster than the state, low when at least a point slower, moderate in between. Compared against the state rather than the nation because each bond authority defines its own series: changes compare, levels do not.
Not enough evidence
How much of this market's picture was measured for this market.

Four separate readings, each with the figures behind it and the rule that turned those figures into words. There is deliberately no single score: one number would hide which of these was doing the work, and a market with strong rental evidence and no population figure would score as though it had both. Every signal describes what has been measured — none of them is advice, and none says what will happen next.
Moving with the rest of Victoria
How rents here moved over a year, against the typical suburb in Victoria.
| Rent change over a year here | +4.7% | the twelve months to September 2025 against a year earlier |
|---|---|---|
| The middle suburb in Victoria | +4.6% | the twelve months to September 2025 against a year earlier |
| Difference | +0.1 percentage points | the twelve months to September 2025 against a year earlier |
| Markets in the comparison | 146 | the twelve months to September 2025 against a year earlier |
The difference between this market’s one-year rent change and the middle change across every suburb the same publisher reports, in percentage points: 3 or more above is well above, 1 above is above, within 1 either way is in line. Changes are compared within one state because each bond authority defines its own series — movement may be compared between them, the rent itself may not.
Not enough evidence
How fast the population here is changing, against how fast Australia is changing.
No population estimate is published for this market at a geography the ABS uses.
Not enough evidence
How many dwellings this market approved over twelve months for every thousand residents, against the national rate. Approvals are permission to build, not completed dwellings.
Dwelling approvals are published by council area, and this market is not one.
Thin
How much weight the figures on this page can carry.
| New leases behind the current figure | 813 | the twelve months to September 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Quarters of history | 103 | to the twelve months to September 2025 |
| How current | 3 quarters behind the newest any state has published | the twelve months to September 2025 |
| Origin | As the publisher published it | the twelve months to September 2025 |
| Knowability | Dated by the end of its reference period, because no release date is recorded | the twelve months to September 2025 |
Strong needs 200 or more new leases behind the current figure, the most recent quarter published anywhere, and eight or more quarters of history. Adequate needs 50 leases and no more than one quarter behind. A withheld count cannot earn better than thin, because a suppressed number is unknown rather than small.
The latest figures here cover the twelve months to September quarter 2025, which ended 30 September 2025. December quarter 2025 has since closed and no figures for it have appeared here. Either the publisher has not released it or we have not yet retrieved it; we do not guess which, and nothing here is filled in meanwhile.
The rent figures here are published by Department of Families, Fairness and Housing and used under an open licence. Any other figure on this page names its own publisher on the line it appears on. Every rent figure is either as published or arithmetic on figures as published. APRIQ models and estimates nothing: where a figure is a publisher’s own estimate — an estimated resident population is one — it is called an estimate where it is shown. Growth is measured between named quarters, never by counting back rows, because an area is published only when it clears the publisher’s reporting threshold. This page exists because Traralgon has 813 bonds behind its current figure and 103 quarters of history; markets with less than that get no page rather than a thin one. Method, sources and licences.
