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.

Homebush has an estimated 23,513 residents, up from 20,822 at the 2021 Census — a change of 2,691 people, or 12.9%. Growth has averaged 2.6% a year over five years, faster than 80% of areas nationally. 602 new addresses have been validated here since Census night.

Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.
Detail
Based on AreaSearch's analysis, Homebush's population is around 23,513 as of May 2026. This reflects an increase of 2,691 people (12.9%) since the 2021 Census, which reported a population of 20,822 people. The change is inferred from the estimated resident population of 23,511 from the ABS as of June 2025 and an additional 602 validated new addresses since the Census date. This level of population equates to a density ratio of 6,123 persons per square kilometer, which lies in the top 10% of national locations assessed by AreaSearch, making land in the area a highly-sought resource.
Homebush's 12.9% growth since the 2021 census exceeded the SA4 region (6.6%), along with the state, marking it as a growth leader in the region. Population growth for the area was primarily driven by overseas migration that contributed approximately 80.0% of overall population gains during recent periods. AreaSearch is adopting ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, as released in 2024 with 2022 as the base year. For any SA2 areas not covered by this data, AreaSearch is utilising the NSW State Government's SA2 level projections, as released in 2022 with 2021 as the base year. Growth rates by age group from these aggregations are also applied to all areas for years 2032 to 2041. As we examine future population trends, a significant population increase in the top quartile of national statistical areas is forecast, with the area expected to expand by 6,299 persons to 2041 based on the latest annual ERP population numbers, reflecting recording a gain of 26.8% in total over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
794 new dwellings have been approved in Homebush over the past five years, an average of 158 a year. That places the area in the 94th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 7 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 66 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 11% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Few approvals have been recorded in the most recent months, well below the longer-run average; the latest ABS periods are still being reported. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Homebush has averaged around 158 new dwelling approvals per year, with 794 homes approved over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) and 5 so far in FY-26. Given an average of 3.5 new residents per year arriving per dwelling constructed over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), demand significantly exceeds new supply, which usually results in price growth and increased buyer competition, while new properties are constructed at an average value of $205,000—below the regional average—suggesting more affordable housing options for buyers. Also, $32.4 million in commercial approvals have been registered this financial year, suggesting robust local business investment.
When measured against Greater Sydney, Homebush has 50.0% more new home approvals (per person). which should provide buyers with ample choice. New building activity shows 11.0% detached dwellings and 89.0% attached dwellings. This skew toward compact living offers affordable entry pathways and attracts downsizers, investors, and first-time purchasers. At around 163 people per approval, Homebush reflects a developing area. Population forecasts indicate Homebush will gain 6,297 residents through to 2041 (from the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate). Building activity is keeping pace with growth projections, though buyers may experience heightened competition as the population grows.

14,392 residents of Homebush are employed, from a labour force of 14,902. Unemployment sits at 3.4%, with participation at 73.3%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 21,619, about 92% 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
Homebush possesses a highly educated workforce, with professional services showing strong representation, and an unemployment rate of only 3.4%. As of March 2026, 14,392 residents are in work while the unemployment rate is 0.7% below Greater Sydney's rate of 4.1%, and workforce participation is fairly standard (73.3% compared to Greater Sydney's 69.1%). Based on Census responses, a high 41.4% of residents were found to work from home, though Covid-19 lockdown impacts should be considered. Leading employment industries among residents comprise health care & social assistance, professional & technical, and retail trade.
The area shows particularly strong specialization in accommodation & food, with an employment share of 1.4 times the regional level. Meanwhile, construction has limited presence with 5.3% employment compared to 8.6% regionally. While local employment opportunities exist in the area, it appears many residents commute elsewhere for work, based on the count of Census working population to local population. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS data, over the 12 months to March 2026, labour force levels decreased by 2.4% while employment declined by 2.0%, causing the unemployment rate to fall by 0.4 percentage points. This contrasts with Greater Sydney, where employment rose by 1.9%, the labour force grew by 1.9%, and unemployment fell marginally. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from May-25 can offer further insight into potential future demand within Homebush. These projections, covering five and ten-year periods, have been mapped against the local employment profile to estimate growth patterns. While national employment is forecast to expand by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates differ significantly between industry sectors. Applying these industry-specific projections to Homebush's employment mix suggests local employment should increase by 6.9% over five years and 14.0% over ten years (please note this is a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not take into account localised population projections).

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 — 602 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (20,822 at the 2021 Census → 23,513 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.
