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.

Sales Detail
Macquarie Fields has an estimated 14,646 residents, up from 14,198 at the 2021 Census — a change of 448 people, or 3.2%. That puts 1,624 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 conducted by AreaSearch, the population of Macquarie Fields is estimated at approximately 14,646 in May 2026. This represents a growth of 448 residents (3.2%) from the 14,198 individuals recorded in the 2021 Census. This population shift is calculated using the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population of 14,551 along with 72 validated new addresses registered since the Census. The resulting population density stands at 1,623 persons per square kilometer, a figure that exceeds the typical density found across evaluated national areas. The primary driver of this population growth has been overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 64.3% of the overall population gains in recent times.
AreaSearch utilizes the 2024 population projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia, which use 2022 as their baseline year. For regions not covered by this dataset, projections from the 2022 NSW State Government release with a 2021 baseline are implemented. Growth rates categorized by age bracket from these datasets are projected forward for the years 2032 to 2041. Looking ahead, the population is projected to expand at a rate slightly below the national median for statistical areas, increasing by 625 people by 2041 based on recent annual ERP statistics, representing a total growth of 3.6% over the 16-year period.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
211 new dwellings have been approved in Macquarie Fields over the past five years, an average of 42 a year. That is 3.0 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 34 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 71% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 39, broadly in line with 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
An average of about 42 new residential approvals are issued annually in Macquarie Fields, resulting in a total of 211 dwellings over the last 5 financial years. In the current FY-26 period, 36 approvals have been registered. With an average of only 0.8 new residents added per year for each new dwelling completed between FY-21 and FY-25, residential construction is matching or exceeding demand, providing buyers with broader options and supporting population expansion that may outpace current projections, with new homes built at a mean value of $235,000—a figure below the regional norm—pointing to more budget-friendly housing choices.
Additionally, commercial approvals registered at $69,000 this financial year, highlighting the predominantly residential character of the suburb. In comparison to Greater Sydney, property development in Macquarie Fields is notably low, running 54.0% below the regional per capita average. This limited volume of new construction typically sustains demand and values for established properties. The level of activity is also below the national average, reflecting a mature market environment and potential development limits. The mix of new construction consists of 71.0% freestanding houses and 29.0% townhouses or units, maintaining the suburban profile of the area with a focus on detached homes that appeal to buyers seeking more space. With roughly 399 residents for every approval, Macquarie Fields demonstrates the characteristics of a mature market. Long-term forecasts suggest Macquarie Fields will gain 530 residents by 2041, based on the latest quarterly estimates from AreaSearch. At the current pace of construction, the supply of new housing is expected to comfortably satisfy demand, establishing favorable conditions for purchasers and potentially enabling growth that exceeds current population estimates.

6,469 residents of Macquarie Fields are employed, from a labour force of 7,175. Unemployment sits at 9.8%, with participation at 62.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 12,092, about 83% 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
Macquarie Fields has a qualified workforce with strong representation in essential services, an unemployment rate of 9.8%, and estimated job growth of 6.0% over the last year. In March 2026, there were 6,469 employed residents, while the unemployment rate was 5.7% higher than the 4.1% recorded in Greater Sydney, indicating potential for labor market improvement, and the participation rate was lower at 62.7% compared to 69.1% for Greater Sydney. Census data indicates that a high proportion of residents, 26.9%, worked from home, though this figure may be influenced by pandemic-related lockdown measures.
Resident employment is heavily concentrated in retail trade, manufacturing, and health care & social assistance. The local workforce shows a distinct concentration in the manufacturing sector, which employs people at 1.8 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical services have a minor footprint, employing 6.3% of the workforce compared to 11.5% across the wider region. The comparison between the census working population and the resident population suggests that this predominantly residential suburb offers a limited number of local jobs. AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics shows that for the year ending March 2026, local employment grew by 6.0% and the labor force expanded by 7.8%, which led to a 1.6 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. This trend diverges from Greater Sydney, where employment increased by 1.9%, the labor force expanded by 1.9%, and unemployment declined slightly. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia dated May-25 provide context for future labor demand in Macquarie Fields. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce structure to model potential growth. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, expansion rates vary widely across different industries. Applying these sector-specific forecasts to the employment distribution of Macquarie Fields suggests local employment will grow by 6.3% over five years and 13.4% over ten years, noting that this calculation is a basic weighted extrapolation for demonstration purposes and does not incorporate local 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 — 72 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (14,198 at the 2021 Census → 14,646 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.
