Sales Detail
Beckenham has an estimated 10,876 residents, up from 9,092 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,784 people, or 19.6%. Growth has averaged 3.3% a year over five years, faster than 90% of areas nationally. 185 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Overseas migration accounts for 70.0% of that increase. That puts 1,862 residents on each square kilometre. Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.
Detail
According to AreaSearch evaluations combining regional ABS updates and address validations post-Census, the suburb of Beckenham reached an estimated 10,876 residents by Aug 2026. This represents an addition of 1,784 people (19.6%) compared to the 9,092 people recorded during the 2021 Census. Such figures build upon an Estimated Resident Population of 10,769 derived from ABS figures (June 2025) together with 185 validated new addresses documented following the Census date. Consequently, the suburb of Beckenham exhibits a population density of 1,862 persons per square kilometer, outpacing the national benchmark evaluated by AreaSearch.
Furthermore, the suburb of Beckenham outpaced both the wider SA3 territory and the national expansion rate (9.5%) with its 19.6% increase since the 2021 census. This upward demographic trajectory was predominantly fueled by overseas arrivals, who accounted for around 70.0% of the recent population additions. Projections compiled by Geoscience Australia alongside the ABS published in 2024 (anchored to 2022) are applied by AreaSearch across SA2 locations. Whenever specific local data is absent or for forecasting beyond 2032, models incorporate ABS age-cohort trends sourced from the Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023, using 2022 data). Long-term outlooks place the suburb of Beckenham slightly under the median growth trajectory within AreaSearch datasets, projecting an increase of 1,237 persons by 2041 via aggregated SA2 metrics, which amounts to a 10.4% cumulative expansion across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
372 new dwellings have been approved in Beckenham over the past five years, an average of 74 a year. That places the area in the 92nd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 7 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 70 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 74% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 77, broadly in line with 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 residential building approvals mapped across local statistical zones indicate that Beckenham averages approximately 74 approved dwellings per year, totaling an estimated 372 residential permits throughout the prior 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), alongside 77 approvals recorded during FY-25 so far. Because an average of 4.8 new residents arrived annually for every completed home across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), construction rates have lagged local demand, contributing to heightened buyer competition and upward pricing pressure, with residential construction costs averaging $411,000 per dwelling. Concurrently, commercial approvals have reached $51.9 million over the current financial year, highlighting substantial commercial capital deployment.
Per capita residential building approvals in Beckenham exceed the Greater Perth benchmark by 61.0%, affording prospective purchasers a broader selection of housing. The incoming pipeline is split between detached houses at 74.0% and attached dwellings at 26.0%, reinforcing the suburban character of the neighborhood while catering to buyers desiring standalone space. Moreover, the area records around 126 people per dwelling approval, underscoring steady residential expansion. Looking ahead, Beckenham is projected to welcome 1,130 additional residents by 2041 relative to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly release. Maintained at existing rates, residential construction activity appears well placed to satisfy demographic requirements, supporting favorable market conditions for purchasers and potentially facilitating expansion beyond current baseline projections.

5,783 residents of Beckenham are employed, from a labour force of 6,140. Unemployment sits at 5.8%, with participation at 71.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.2% 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 9,052, about 83% 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
A well-qualified local labour pool characterizes Beckenham, featuring strong participation in industrial and manufacturing lines, alongside a local unemployment rate of 5.8% and a 1.6% yearly rise in jobs as assessed through AreaSearch statistical compilations. As of March 2026, employed residents numbered 5,783, with the jobless rate tracking 1.6% higher than the 4.2% figure seen in Greater Perth, while local participation closely matches the broader metropolitan level of 69.9%. Census records indicate that only 4.8% of the local workforce worked remotely from home, a metric that may have been shaped by Covid-19 restrictions.
Resident employment is primarily concentrated across health care & social assistance, retail trade, as well as accommodation & food. In addition, the workforce shows pronounced concentration in transport, postal & warehousing, where local representation stands at 1.7 times the metropolitan benchmark. Conversely, education & training accounts for only 5.5% of employed locals, trailing the 9.2% recorded for Greater Perth. Given the residential composition, internal workplace counts compared to resident counts suggest that local job availability within the boundaries remains limited. According to combined ABS and SALM statistical area datasets, Beckenham recorded a 1.6% rise in employment and a 2.1% expansion in its labour pool over the year to March 2026, leading to a 0.5 percentage points uptick in unemployment. Over the same timeframe across Greater Perth, employment advanced 2.0%, the workforce grew 2.5%, and unemployment moved up by 0.4 percentage points. Forward-looking demand patterns can also be evaluated through national employment outlooks published by Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26. Projected across five and ten-year horizons against local industry distributions, national figures indicate overall employment gains of 6.6% across five years and 13.7% across ten years, with substantial variation across individual sectors. Weighting these sectoral trajectories against Beckenham's existing workforce composition suggests local job growth of 6.2% over five years and 13.2% over ten years (note that this represents a baseline weighted extrapolation for illustrative context and excludes localised demographic shifts).

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 — 185 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (9,092 at the 2021 Census → 10,876 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 (SAL50090). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
