Alexandria has an estimated 11,619 residents, up from 9,649 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,970 people, or 20.4%. Growth has averaged 3.0% a year over five years, faster than 90% of areas nationally. 343 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
In the suburb of Alexandria, demographic evaluations incorporating ABS updates across the surrounding vicinity alongside 343 validated new addresses since the Census indicate a population of approximately 11,619 as of Aug 2026. This represents an addition of 1,970 people (20.4%) compared to the 2021 Census figure of 9,649 people. These calculations stem from a resident base of 11,414 established via the latest ERP release from the ABS in June 2025 in conjunction with newly confirmed post-Census address data. With 3,282 persons per square kilometer, the locality's density ranks within the top quartile of national areas surveyed by AreaSearch.
Furthermore, the 20.4% expansion recorded since the 2021 census outstripped the broader rates across NSW (7.3%) and Greater Sydney, positioning the suburb of Alexandria among the region's leading growth centres, largely propelled by overseas arrivals accounting for roughly 65.0% of recent population additions. Projections for the suburb of Alexandria utilize ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 figures published in 2024 (taking 2022 as the base year), supplemented where necessary by NSW State Government SA2 forecasts issued in 2022 (with 2021 as the base year), with age-cohort growth trajectories applied across 2032 to 2041. Future demographic patterns point to an expansion rate exceeding the national median, as aggregated SA2 modeling anticipates an influx of 2,212 persons through to 2041, culminating in an overall growth of 17.3% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
534 new dwellings have been approved in Alexandria over the past five years, an average of 106 a year. That places the area in the 91st percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 9 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 207 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 0% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 474, running ahead of that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this Suburb (SAL) boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
ABS building consent records compiled by AreaSearch reveal that Alexandria records development approval for approximately 106 dwellings each year, totaling roughly 534 homes sanctioned across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), including 474 approved during FY-25 to date. Supply and demand dynamics remain healthy, evidenced by an average ratio of 1.6 people moving in per completed residence over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with typical build costs averaging $549,000 per dwelling. In addition, commercial construction approvals have reached $93.8 million in the current financial year, highlighting substantial non-residential investment locally.
Residential building approvals per capita in Alexandria exceed the Greater Sydney standard by 261.0%, affording prospective purchasers an extensive array of alternatives. This volume sits substantially higher than national norms, demonstrating solid developer sentiment, while ongoing construction is composed exclusively of attached housing forms. Such high-density progression creates accessible opportunities suited to entry-level buyers, investors, and downsizers, with approximately 38 people per approval underscoring its active development landscape. Demographic projections suggest that Alexandria is set to welcome 2,007 residents through to 2041 relative to the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate. Current construction trajectories indicate that the delivery of new residential stock is well positioned to satisfy demand, establishing favorable conditions for buyers and potentially enabling resident totals to outpace baseline forecasts.

8,193 residents of Alexandria are employed, from a labour force of 8,412. Unemployment sits at 2.6%, with participation at 82.8%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.2% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth, so in an area growing as fast as this one it understates the likely rise in local jobs. The working-day population is estimated at 18,161, about 156% of the resident population, so the area draws in more workers than it sends out. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Alexandria is characterized by an exceptionally qualified labour pool with notable concentration in technology, supported by an unemployment rate sitting at just 2.6% alongside a 1.9% rise in local jobs over the prior year per AreaSearch aggregations. Data as of March 2026 indicates that 8,193 residents are employed, local joblessness sits 1.5% beneath Greater Sydney's 4.1%, and participation reaches an elevated 82.8% versus 68.9% across Greater Sydney. Census findings highlighted that 64.6% of local workers operated from home, though this metric was subject to prevailing Covid-19 restrictions. Resident employment centers predominantly around professional & technical services, finance & insurance, and health care & social assistance.
Specialization in professional & technical fields is marked, capturing a market share 1.7 times the broader regional benchmark, whereas construction engages a smaller 4.4% portion of the local workforce relative to the 8.6% metropolitan norm. Recording 1.9 workers for every resident at the Census, Alexandria operates as a vital employment destination that imports substantial labor from surrounding communities. Analysis of ABS and SALM metrics over the 12 months to March 2026 shows that a 1.9% rise in employment alongside a 2.1% expansion in the active workforce led to an unemployment increase of 0.2 percentage points, in contrast to Greater Sydney where employment increased 1.9%, the workforce expanded 1.9%, and unemployment edged downward. National outlooks from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 project broad employment growth of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with performance varying across sectors. When weighted against Alexandria's specific industry distribution, these projections indicate potential local employment gains of 7.2% over five years and 14.4% over ten years, noting this extrapolation serves illustrative purposes and excludes localized demographic 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 — 343 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (9,649 at the 2021 Census → 11,619 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 Aug 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.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (SAL10030). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
