This analysis uses ABS Statistical Areas Level 2 (SA2) boundaries, which can materially differ from Suburbs and Localities (SAL) even when sharing similar names.
SA2 boundaries are defined by the Australian Bureau of Statistics and are designed to represent communities for statistical reporting (e.g., census and ERP).
Suburbs and Localities (SAL) represent commonly-used suburb/locality names (postal-style areas) and may use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Cecil Hills has an estimated 6,841 residents, down from 6,906 at the 2021 Census. The population has thinned by an average 0.6% a year over five years, slower than 95% of areas nationally. That puts 1,824 residents on each square kilometre. Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.
Detail
According to findings from AreaSearch, the resident count of Cecil Hills stands at approximately 6,841 as of Aug 2026. Relative to the 6,906 residents recorded in the 2021 Census, this represents a reduction of 65 people (0.9%). This estimate incorporates the ABS estimated resident population figure of 6,831 as of June 2025 alongside 3 validated new addresses recorded following the Census. The suburb exhibits a population density of 1,824 persons per square kilometer, placing it above the national benchmark evaluated by AreaSearch. Inbound international migration served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 70.9% of total recent population additions.
Projections utilized by AreaSearch originate from the ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 dataset published in 2024 (using 2022 as its base period), supplemented where necessary by NSW State Government SA2 figures released in 2022 (benchmarked to 2021). Age-cohort growth trends derived from these sources are carried forward across all districts through the 2032 to 2041 period. Based on anticipated demographic developments, local expansion is forecast to track slightly under the nationwide median, with the latest annual ERP baseline indicating an addition of 670 persons to 2041, representing a cumulative increase of 9.7% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
24 new dwellings have been approved in Cecil Hills over the past five years, an average of 4 a year. That is 0.7 approvals per 1,000 residents. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Dwelling consent volumes in Cecil Hills have run at approximately 4 approvals annually, delivering 24 homes throughout the preceding 5 financial years. Alongside the recent population reduction, this construction pace has comfortably accommodated local housing demand, providing viable selections for purchasers. Approved residential projects carry an average construction valuation of $384,000—a figure lower than the broader metropolitan standard that highlights local building affordability. Moreover, non-residential activity has seen $1.5 million in commercial development approvals recorded this financial year, underscoring the area's predominantly suburban character. Relative to Greater Sydney, building activity across Cecil Hills remains subdued.
While local construction has gained momentum in recent years, overall volumes sit below nationwide norms, pointing to an established urban footprint and potential planning limitations; such constrained pipeline supply commonly underpins values and demand for existing properties. Recent approvals comprise 80.0% detached houses alongside 20.0% townhouses or apartments, preserving an established low-density setting tailored to family living. With an average of roughly 1173 people per dwelling approval, the locality displays the hallmarks of an established residential district. Forecasts derived from the most recent AreaSearch quarterly release project that Cecil Hills will gain 660 residents by 2041. Should current construction volumes persist, additions to the housing stock could lag population expansion, potentially intensifying competition among purchasers and applying upward pressure on home values.

4,127 residents of Cecil Hills are employed, from a labour force of 4,217. Unemployment sits at 2.1%, with participation at 72.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.1% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 5,156, about 75% of the resident population, so more people leave the area for work than travel in. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
The employment landscape in Cecil Hills is characterized by a robust skilled labor pool with significant representation in manufacturing and industrial fields. Over the previous year, estimated job growth reached 5.4%, while the unemployment rate remained low at just 2.1%. By March 2026, the local labor force included 4,127 residents actively employed. This unemployment figure sits 2.0% lower than the Greater Sydney average of 4.1%. Workforce participation rates are relatively typical, standing at 72.6% for Cecil Hills compared to 68.9% across Greater Sydney. Survey data from Census responses indicate that a substantial 37.2% of residents engage in remote work, though this figure should be interpreted with consideration of the lingering effects of Covid-19 lockdowns.
Local employment is concentrated within health care & social assistance, retail trade, and manufacturing. Notably, manufacturing concentration is pronounced, representing 1.8 times the metropolitan share. Conversely, professional & technical roles account for only 6.2% of the local working population, trailing the Greater Sydney level of 11.5%. A comparison between Census workplace data and local resident numbers suggests that internal job generation remains modest across this predominantly residential suburb. AreaSearch evaluation of ABS and SALM metrics shows that over the twelve months to March 2026, local headcount grew by 5.4% while the workforce expanded by 5.0%, bringing about a 0.4 percentage points decline in unemployment. Across Greater Sydney over the same timeframe, both headcount and workforce grew by 1.9%, accompanied by a slight decrease in joblessness. National projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide an indicator of prospective staffing requirements; while overall employment across Australia is slated to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, trajectories vary by field. When calibrated against the local sector distribution, employment in Cecil Hills is projected to expand by 6.1% over five years and 12.8% over ten years (representing an illustrative weighted calculation that excludes localized population changes).

How the numbers are built
Population
The Census provides the small-area baseline, aggregated from mesh blocks to this boundary. It is then re-based to the ABS Estimated Resident Population (June 2025 release), and new dwellings built since Census night are counted from address data — 3 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (6,906 at the 2021 Census → 6,841 now). Annual growth rates are compound (CAGR), not simple averages.
Age profile
Cohort shares are not raw Census counts. Every cohort is held as a pair — the Census baseline and a current estimate — and the split is re-based using ERP and state population projections, current to Aug 2026. Median age is the Census median plus modelled change since. Charts that show both are labelled "2021 Census vs Current Estimate".
Property sales
Sourced from the state valuation authority's sales register — current, not Census, and refreshed weekly. Medians are calculated from settled transactions in the period shown; periods with very low transaction counts are flagged or suppressed, because a handful of sales can move a median substantially.
Rents
Derived from state rental bond lodgement data, by dwelling type and bedroom count. Bonds are lodged at the start of a new tenancy, so this reflects new lettings, not the whole rented stock.
Development & infrastructure
Building approvals come from current ABS releases; development applications are collected from council and state planning portals; the infrastructure pipeline is compiled from Infrastructure Australia and local government sources. Applications are matched to this boundary by address or coordinates, so very recent lodgements may not yet appear.
Employment & income
Industry and occupation structure comes from the Census, but the headline labour-market indicators do not. Unemployment and labour force are derived from ABS Small Area Labour Markets (quarterly). The employment outlook applies Department of Employment forecasts for all 19 industry divisions to this area's own industry mix (the agency is now Jobs and Skills Australia), as does the Internet Vacancy Index used for job demand. Because it is weighted on industry composition alone, that outlook carries no allowance for local population growth — in fast-growing areas the real rise in local jobs will typically be higher. Income combines Census household income with ATO taxable-income statistics for FY 2023, indexed forward using the Wage Price Index.
Education, transport & amenities
School enrolments, ICSEA and performance come from ACARA's current release, not the Census. Public transport stops and service frequency are derived from GTFS timetable feeds published by state transport departments. Services and amenities are proximity and count scores built from provider directories, refreshed on their own cycle. The Census contributes only the travel-to-work and qualification measures.
Rankings and benchmarks. Where we rank this area, the comparison set is every area of the same boundary type — suburbs against suburbs, SA2s against SA2s. Benchmarks compare this area against its greater capital city region and the national figure for the same measure and period.
Limits worth knowing. Small areas carry larger error margins, and the ABS introduces small random adjustments to Census counts to protect confidentiality — so totals may not sum exactly. Estimates re-based from regional data describe the area's expected trajectory, not a direct count of it. Figures are indicative for research and are not financial, planning or valuation advice.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (127011593). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
