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.

Fairfield has an estimated 19,332 residents, up from 18,248 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,084 people, or 5.9%. 193 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Overseas migration accounts for 90.3% of that increase. That puts 4,570 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 the analysis by AreaSearch, the population of Fairfield is approximately 19,332 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 1,084 individuals (5.9%) relative to the 2021 Census, which documented a population of 18,248 people. This shift is calculated using the ABS estimated resident population of 19,304 from June 2025 alongside 193 validated new addresses registered after the Census date. Such population levels result in a density of 4,570 persons per square kilometer, placing the locality in the top 10% of all national areas analyzed by AreaSearch, indicating that land here is a highly sought-after commodity.
The 5.9% expansion rate of Fairfield since the 2021 census outpaced the broader SA3 area (2.0%), positioning it as a primary growth driver within the region. This population rise was largely propelled by overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 90.3% of the total population gains in recent times. AreaSearch implements the ABS/Geoscience Australia forecasts for each SA2 region, which were published in 2024 using 2022 as the base year. In instances where SA2 regions lack this data, AreaSearch utilizes the projections at the SA2 level from the NSW State Government, published in 2022 with a 2021 baseline. Age group growth rates derived from these datasets are applied to all regions for the period spanning 2032 to 2041. Looking at upcoming demographic changes, a substantial population rise within the highest quartile of national statistical zones is projected, with the locality expected to grow by 5,765 persons to 2041 based on the most recent annual ERP statistics, representing an overall increase of 29.7% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
770 new dwellings have been approved in Fairfield over the past five years, an average of 154 a year. That places the area in the 53rd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 8 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 133 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 17% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 58, well below that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Fairfield has seen an average of approximately 154 new residential approvals annually, with 770 dwellings approved during the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25) and 54 recorded so far in FY-26. Given that an average of only 0.5 new residents arrived per new dwelling over the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), residential construction is keeping pace with or exceeding demand, providing purchasers with more options and supporting population expansion that may outstrip current projections, while new dwellings are built at an average cost of $271,000, which is below the regional norm and points to more accessible pricing for buyers.
Furthermore, $32.2 million in commercial approvals have been registered during this financial year, pointing to solid investment in local businesses. Relative to Greater Sydney, Fairfield records 82.0% more new residential approvals (per person), which should offer buyers plenty of options, even though construction momentum has slowed recently. Recent construction data indicates 17.0% detached homes and 83.0% townhouses or apartments. This preference for denser housing structures provides affordable options for buyers and draws downsizers, investors, and first-time buyers. This represents a major shift from the existing housing distribution (which stands at 39.0% houses), reflecting a decrease in available development sites and meeting changing lifestyle choices and affordability needs. With roughly 326 people per residential approval, Fairfield exhibits the features of a low density region. Demographic projections indicate that Fairfield is set to add 5,735 residents by 2041 (calculated from the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimate). The current pace of development seems well aligned with future requirements, encouraging stable market conditions without intense price pressures.

6,106 residents of Fairfield are employed, from a labour force of 7,040. Unemployment sits at 13.3%, with participation at 42.9%. 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. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Fairfield has a qualified workforce across a variety of sectors, with an unemployment rate of 13.3% and an estimated job growth of 5.9% over the past year. As of March 2026, 6,106 residents are employed, while the unemployment rate is 9.1% higher than the Greater Sydney rate of 4.1%, showing room for progress, and labor force participation is notably lower (42.9% relative to Greater Sydney's 69.1%). Census data reveals that a high 26.9% of residents worked from home, though the influence of Covid-19 lockdowns should be taken into account. The primary employment sectors for residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and manufacturing.
The locality displays a particularly strong concentration in manufacturing, with employment figures at 1.9 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical services have a minor footprint at 5.6% employment compared to 11.5% across the region. This primarily residential locality appears to provide few local jobs, as shown by comparing the count of the Census working population against the resident population. Based on the AreaSearch assessment of SALM and ABS statistics, during the twelve months ending March 2026, employment figures expanded by 5.9% and the labor force grew by 5.0%, leading to a decrease in unemployment by 0.8 percentage points. This differs from Greater Sydney, where employment increased by 1.9%, the labor force expanded by 1.9%, and unemployment decreased slightly. National employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of May-25 offer additional perspective on future demand in Fairfield. These forecasts, spanning five and ten-year horizons, have been aligned with the local employment profile to project development trends. While national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates vary widely across industry sectors. Applying these sector-specific forecasts to the employment distribution of Fairfield suggests local employment should grow by 6.1% over five years and 12.9% over ten years (note that this is a basic weighted projection for illustration and does not incorporate localized population forecasts).

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 — 193 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (18,248 at the 2021 Census → 19,332 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 May 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.
