Detail

As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Beaumaris (Vic.) has an estimated population of approximately 14,453, according to AreaSearch analysis of broader ABS population updates alongside post-Census validated new addresses. Compared to the 13,947 people recorded in the 2021 Census, this represents an addition of 506 people (3.6%). This demographic shift is derived from AreaSearch's resident population estimate of 14,408 following the ABS June 2025 ERP release, combined with 82 validated new addresses identified since the Census date. With a density ratio of 2,790 persons per square kilometer, the suburb ranks in the upper quartile of Australian locations assessed by AreaSearch.

The 3.6% growth rate achieved since census positions the suburb within 2.4 percentage points of the SA3 area (6.0%), highlighting solid demographic momentum. Recent population gains were almost entirely underpinned by overseas migration, which served as the primary growth catalyst. To model future demographic shifts, AreaSearch applies 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia projections using 2022 as a base year for each SA2 area, supplementing unrepresented localities with the VIC State Government's 2023 Regional/LGA projections via a weighted aggregation methodology from LGA to SA2 tiers. These aggregated age-group growth rates are extended across all regions for the years 2032 to 2041. Over the forward-looking 16 years, the suburb of Beaumaris (Vic.) is projected to expand by 1,131 persons to 2041, representing a total rise of 7.5% based on aggregated SA2-level projections, a pace that sits just below the national statistical area median.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Beaumaris (Vic.)

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

294 new dwellings have been approved in Beaumaris (Vic.) over the past five years, an average of 58 a year. That is 3.9 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 55 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 45% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 40, well below 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

Residential construction data analyzed by AreaSearch from ABS building approvals shows Beaumaris averaging approximately 58 approved residential dwellings each year, amounting to roughly 294 homes across the past 5 financial years. In FY-25 to date, 40 approvals have been documented. Between FY-21 and FY-25, an average of only 0.4 people annually arrived per completed dwelling over the past 5 financial years, meaning building activity is keeping pace with or exceeding demand, thereby providing greater choice for purchasers and accommodating potential population expansion beyond baseline expectations. Approved dwellings carry an average expected construction cost of $1,079,000, reflecting developer focus on high-end, premium residential projects.

Concurrently, $17.7 million in commercial development approvals during this financial year underscores sustained commercial sector investment. Per-capita development volumes in Beaumaris sit 59.0% below the Greater Melbourne regional average, creating a supply constraint that often supports underlying demand and asset values for established stock. Of the recent approvals, standalone houses represent 45.0%, while medium-to-high density formats such as townhouses or apartments constitute 55.0%. This shift toward higher-density building activity offers viable opportunities for entry-level buyers, investors, and downsizers, contrasting notably with the current dwelling stock (currently 79.0% houses). Such a pattern reflects constrained developable land availability alongside changing urban density preferences and affordability pressures. With approximately 296 people per approval, the locality maintains low-density characteristics. Projections based on the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate indicate Beaumaris will add 1,086 residents through to 2041. Ongoing construction activity appears well positioned to satisfy this forthcoming residential demand, supporting favorable market conditions for prospective purchasers and creating capacity for population gains that might outstrip projected levels.

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 — 82 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (13,947 at the 2021 Census → 14,453 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 (SAL20182). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.

Common questions about this page

How do Beaumaris (Vic.) suburb boundaries differ from Statistical Areas?
This page uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries (suburb-style geography). SAL represents commonly-known suburb names used in addresses, while Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census/statistical reporting. Even when sharing the same name, SAL and SA2 boundaries often cover different geographic areas with different populations.
Where does the data on this Beaumaris (Vic.) page come from?
AreaSearch compiles this page from official and industry sources — including ABS, Geoscience Australia, Valuer General, Provider directories, DEWR, JSA, State Transport Departments and ACARA — then aggregates them to the boundary shown and calculates the rankings, growth rates and benchmarks itself. Property sales come from the state valuation authority, rents from state rental bond lodgements, development applications from council and state planning portals, school data from ACARA, and public transport from state transport departments.
Is the Beaumaris (Vic.) data on this page just from the 2021 Census?
No. Most of this page is maintained well beyond the Census. Sourced entirely from current releases: development & approvals (Aug 2026), property sales & rents (Oct 2026), infrastructure projects (Aug 2026) and services & amenities (Sep 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to Aug 2026), age profile (to Aug 2026), employment (to Mar 2026), income (to FY 2023), education (to Sep 2026), transport (to Jul 2026) and health (to 2024). Population and age cohorts in particular are re-based to the latest ABS Estimated Resident Population rather than left at 2021 counts. Only housing, households and cultural diversity remain wholly Census-based, because no more current small-area dataset exists for those measures.
