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.

Detail
According to the analysis by AreaSearch, the population of Quakers Hill is estimated at approximately 26,203 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 1,533 residents (6.2%) from the 24,670 individuals recorded during the 2021 Census. This adjustment is calculated using the ABS June 2025 estimated resident population of 26,132 combined with 199 validated new addresses registered after the Census. The area features a density of 3,372 persons per square kilometer, placing it in the top quartile of national sites analyzed by AreaSearch. The expansion of 6.2% since the census is within 0.9 percentage points of the state average (7.1%), showing solid growth indicators.
This increase was mostly propelled by overseas migration, which made up roughly 65.6% of the total population gains in recent times. For each SA2 region, AreaSearch implements projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024 using a 2022 baseline. In cases where these projections are unavailable, SA2 data from the NSW State Government's 2022 release with a 2021 baseline is substituted. Age group growth rates from these sources are extended to span the years 2032 to 2041. Future demographic forecasts indicate that the area will experience population growth slightly under the national median, with an anticipated addition of 2,715 residents by 2041 based on recent annual ERP figures, representing a total increase of 10.1% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
482 new dwellings have been approved in Quakers Hill over the past five years, an average of 96 a year. That places the area in the 64th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 4 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 67 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 63% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 41, 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
Residential approvals in Quakers Hill average approximately 96 new dwellings per year, with 482 completions authorized during the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, and 38 registered so far in FY-26. Each dwelling has accommodated an average of 2.6 new residents annually over the 5 financial years spanning FY-21 to FY-25, indicating solid local demand that supports property values. The average construction cost for these new homes is $204,000, which sits below the regional standard and provides more affordable options for home buyers. In addition, commercial development approvals have reached $3.8 million during the current financial year, representing a quiet period for local commercial projects.
Compared to the broader Greater Sydney region, the pace of development in Quakers Hill is quite low, standing at 83.0% below the regional per capita average. This limited supply of new properties tends to bolster demand and sustain values for existing homes. Detached houses account for 63.0% of the new builds, while townhouses and apartments make up the remaining 37.0%, demonstrating an increasing availability of medium-density choices that cater to various budgets, from traditional family homes to affordable compact options. The ratio of approximately 558 people for each dwelling approval indicates a mature real estate market. Long-term forecasts indicate that Quakers Hill will gain 2,644 new inhabitants by 2041, based on the latest quarterly calculations from AreaSearch. Considering current building trends, the incoming supply of housing is expected to easily satisfy this demand, maintaining favorable buying conditions and potentially encouraging growth beyond the projected baseline.

16,194 residents of Quakers Hill are employed, from a labour force of 16,566. Unemployment sits at 2.2%, with participation at 81.1%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.6% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 19,332, about 74% 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 local workforce is characterized by high levels of education, strong representation in professional sectors, an unemployment rate of only 2.2%, and an estimated job growth rate of 1.4% over the past year. By March 2026, there were 16,194 residents employed, with the local unemployment rate sitting 1.9 percentage points lower than the Greater Sydney rate of 4.1%. Workforce participation is particularly high at 81.1%, compared to 69.1% across Greater Sydney. Census records show that a significant 45.1% of working residents performed their duties from home, though this figure may reflect the influence of temporary pandemic lockdowns.
The primary sectors employing local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and professional & technical services. There is a notable concentration of workers in transport, postal & warehousing, which is 1.4 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical roles are less common locally, accounting for 8.7% of employment compared to 11.5% across the region. Due to its classification as a mostly residential suburb, local employment opportunities appear limited based on the comparison between the working resident population and locally available jobs. According to AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics, the 12 months leading up to March 2026 saw a 1.4% rise in employed residents and a 1.3% increase in the labor force, resulting in a 0.1 percentage point reduction in the unemployment rate. In comparison, Greater Sydney recorded a 1.9% increase in employment, a 1.9% rise in the labor force, and a marginal decline in unemployment. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia issued in May-25 offer additional perspective on prospective future demand in Quakers Hill. These projections, spanning five-year and ten-year horizons, have been aligned with the local industry distribution to project growth trends. Globally, national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though individual sector growth varies. Applying these national projections directly to the local employment structure suggest Quakers Hill could see job numbers grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, noting this is a basic weighted extrapolation for demonstration purposes and does not account for 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 — 199 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (24,670 at the 2021 Census → 26,203 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.
