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 analysis by AreaSearch, the population of St Agnes - Ridgehaven is approximately 13,586 as of May 2026. This represents an expansion of 425 residents (3.2%) from the 2021 Census, which recorded 13,161 individuals. This adjustment is calculated based on the ABS estimated resident population of 13,531 in June 2025 alongside 78 validated new addresses registered since the Census. Such population numbers translate to a density of 1,104 persons per square kilometer, a figure that aligns closely with typical statistics across locations analyzed by AreaSearch. Throughout the past decade, St Agnes - Ridgehaven has shown steady growth trends with a 0.8% compound annual growth rate, exceeding the figures of the wider SA3 region.
Overseas migration served as the principal driver of this expansion, accounting for approximately 88.7% of the total population increase in recent times. Projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia, published in 2024 using 2022 as the baseline, are utilized for each SA2 region. For locations lacking this data, and for all years after 2032, regional and LGA projections by age bracket from the SA State Government (issued in 2023 using 2021 data) are applied, adjusted via weighted aggregation of population expansion from LGA to SA2 levels. Based on these anticipated demographic trends, the area is set to experience population growth slightly below the median of national statistical regions, with an projected increase of 1,351 individuals by 2041 relative to the latest annual ERP statistics, representing a 9.5% cumulative rise over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
405 new dwellings have been approved in St Agnes - Ridgehaven over the past five years, an average of 81 a year. That places the area in the 66th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 6 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 65 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 83% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 92, broadly in line with that longer-run average.

Detail
An average of approximately 81 new home approvals has been registered annually in St Agnes - Ridgehaven, yielding a total of 405 residential properties over the last 5 financial years. Thus far in FY-26, 85 approvals have been documented. Since the average number of new residents per constructed home was just 1 per year over the 5 financial years spanning FY-21 to FY-25, the volume of new construction matches or exceeds regional demand. This trend provides purchasers with broader choices and facilitates population increases that may surpass current forecasts, with new properties being built at an average estimated cost of $241,000.
Additionally, commercial approvals reached $2.4 million in the current financial year, underlining the dominant residential character of the locality. Residential building activity in St Agnes - Ridgehaven is somewhat high compared to Greater Adelaide, running at 28.0% above the regional average per capita over the 5 year timeframe, which helps preserve options for buyers while reinforcing existing property values. Recent building approvals consist of 83.0% detached houses and 17.0% apartments or townhouses, preserving the suburban profile of the area with a focus on family dwellings designed for those needing space. The region averages about 157 people per residential approval, pointing to a low density housing market. Projections indicate that St Agnes - Ridgehaven will add 1,296 residents by 2041, starting from the most recent quarterly estimate by AreaSearch. With current construction trends, the volume of new housing options should easily accommodate demand, maintaining favorable conditions for purchasers and potentially enabling growth that exceeds current population forecasts.

6,853 residents of St Agnes - Ridgehaven are employed, from a labour force of 7,038. Unemployment sits at 2.6%, with participation at 62.1%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.4% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 11,809, about 87% 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
St Agnes - Ridgehaven possesses a qualified labor force with strong representation in essential services, an unemployment rate of only 2.6%, and estimated job growth of 0.7% over the preceding year. As of March 2026, there are 6,853 employed residents, and the unemployment rate is 1.2% lower than the 3.8% recorded in Greater Adelaide, though workforce participation remains somewhat low at 62.1% compared to 66.6% in Greater Adelaide. Census records show that a modest 9.9% of the workforce operated from home, though this figure may reflect the influence of Covid-19 lockdowns.
The primary employment sectors for local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and education & training. By comparison, professional & technical roles account for only 5.9% of the local workforce, which is below the 7.3% average for Greater Adelaide. The heavily residential nature of the district appears to limit local employment options, as shown by the relationship between the Census working population and resident worker numbers. An analysis of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch indicates that during the 12 months leading to March 2026, employment grew by 0.7% while the overall labor force rose by 1.0%, leading to a 0.2 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. Over the same period in Greater Adelaide, employment increased by 4.2%, the labor force grew by 4.0%, and unemployment decreased by 0.2 percentage points. National employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of May-25 offer additional context regarding prospective demand in St Agnes - Ridgehaven. These five and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local workforce structure to model future growth trends. Although total employment nationwide is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rates of change vary widely across different sectors. Applying these industry projections to the local employment distribution suggests that local employment will rise by 6.4% over five years and 13.5% over ten years, noting that this is a basic weighted projection for illustration 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 — 78 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (13,161 at the 2021 Census → 13,586 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.
