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.

Population
Windsor - Bligh Park has shown very soft population growth performance across periods assessed by AreaSearch
Windsor - Bligh Park's population is approximately 15,443 as of November 2025. This figure represents an increase of 179 people since the 2021 Census, which reported a population of 15,264. The change is inferred from ABS estimated resident population of 15,433 in June 2024 and additional 33 validated new addresses since the Census date. This results in a density ratio of 679 persons per square kilometer. Natural growth contributed approximately 68.0% to overall population gains recently.
AreaSearch uses ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, released in 2024 with a base year of 2022. For areas not covered by this data, NSW State Government's SA2 level projections are used, released in 2022 with a base year of 2021. Growth rates by age group from these aggregations are applied to all areas for years 2032 to 2041. By 2041, the population is projected to decline by 31 persons overall, but specific age cohorts like the 75 to 84 group are expected to increase by 597 people.

The level of residential development activity in Windsor - Bligh Park is very low in comparison to the average area assessed nationally by AreaSearch
Windsor - Bligh Park has seen approximately 16 dwellings receive development approval annually. Over the past five financial years, from FY21 to FY25, a total of 84 homes were approved, with another 6 receiving approval in FY26 so far.

This financial year has seen $14.5 million in commercial approvals, indicating steady commercial investment activity. Compared to Greater Sydney, Windsor - Bligh Park records significantly lower building activity, 76.0% below the regional average per person, which generally supports stronger demand and values for established properties.

New development consists predominantly of detached houses (77.0%) with a smaller proportion of townhouses or apartments (23.0%), maintaining the area's traditional low density character focused on family homes.
The estimated population per dwelling approval is 1095 people, reflecting its quiet, low activity development environment. With population projections indicating stability or decline, Windsor - Bligh Park should experience reduced housing demand pressures in the future, benefiting potential buyers.
