As of Nov 2025, the Aubin Grove statistical area (Lv2) has an estimated population of around 7,477, reflecting a 10.2% increase since the 2021 Census which reported a population of 6,786 people.

The area's population density ratio is 3,027 persons per square kilometer, placing it in the upper quartile relative to national locations assessed by AreaSearch. Aubin Grove's growth rate of 10.2% since the 2021 census exceeded the national average of 9.7%. Interstate migration contributed approximately 49.0% of overall population gains during recent periods, with all drivers including overseas migration and natural growth being positive factors. AreaSearch is adopting ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area released in 2024 with a base year of 2022.

For areas not covered by this data, AreaSearch utilises the growth rates by age cohort provided by the ABS in its latest Greater Capital Region projections (released in 2023, based on 2022 data). Considering projected demographic shifts, an above median population growth is projected for statistical areas across the nation. The Aubin Grove (SA2) is expected to increase by 1,986 persons to reach a total of 9,463 by 2041, reflecting a 33.5% increase over the 17-year period.

Recent residential development output has been above average within Aubin Grove when compared nationally

AreaSearch analysis of ABS building approval numbers in Aubin Grove shows an average of 15 new dwelling approvals per year over the past five financial years, totalling approximately 77 homes. As of FY-26, 11 approvals have been recorded. Between FY-21 and FY-25, there was an average of 19.8 people moving to the area for each dwelling built.

This indicates strong demand outpacing supply, which typically influences prices upwards and intensifies competition among buyers. New properties are constructed at an average expected cost value of $467,000, reflecting a developer focus on the premium segment with upmarket properties. Compared to Greater Perth, Aubin Grove has significantly less development activity, 78.0% below the regional average per person. This limited new supply generally supports stronger demand and values for established dwellings. However, building activity has accelerated in recent years.

When measured against the national average, Aubin Grove's level of development is lower, indicating the area's established nature and suggesting potential planning limitations. Recent building activity consists entirely of standalone homes, maintaining Aubin Grove's traditional suburban character with a focus on family homes appealing to those seeking space. With around 285 people per dwelling approval, Aubin Grove shows a developing market. Looking ahead, Aubin Grove is expected to grow by approximately 2,502 residents through to 2041, according to the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate. If current development rates continue, housing supply may not keep pace with population growth, potentially increasing competition among buyers and supporting stronger price growth.
