Suburb (SAL) Boundary Analysis

This analysis uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, which can materially differ from Statistical Areas (SA2) even when sharing the same name.

SAL boundaries are defined by Australia Post and the Australian Bureau of Statistics to represent commonly-known suburb names used in postal addresses.

Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census data collection and may combine multiple suburbs or use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Growth has averaged 1.5% a year over five years, faster than 83% of areas nationally. 114 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 51.0% of that increase. That puts 863 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

As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Beeliar has an estimated population of approximately 9,857, determined through AreaSearch's evaluation of ABS regional demographic updates alongside 114 validated new addresses added since the Census. When compared against the 2021 Census count of 8,617 people, this represents an expansion of 1,240 people (14.4%). This total builds upon an estimated resident population (ERP) of 9,360 identified by AreaSearch from the ABS June 2025 data release. The resulting population density stands at 863 persons per square kilometer, aligning closely with broader benchmarks tracked by AreaSearch.

Outpacing the 9.5% nationwide benchmark, the suburb of Beeliar's 14.4% expansion since the 2021 census establishes it as a notable regional growth hotspot. Inward interstate migration served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 51.0% of recent population gains, with overseas migration and natural increase also making positive contributions. Population projections utilized by AreaSearch draw on 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia data with a 2022 baseline for local SA2 areas. For locations lacking this coverage, as well as for all projections beyond 2032, models incorporate age-cohort growth rates from the ABS 2023 Greater Capital Region release (utilizing 2022 figures). Based on these anticipated demographic transitions, the suburb of Beeliar is positioned for above median population growth relative to other statistical areas assessed by AreaSearch. Aggregated SA2-level figures point to an addition of 1,351 persons up to 2041, representing an overall increase of 8.7% across the 16 years.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Beeliar

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

96 new dwellings have been approved in Beeliar over the past five years, an average of 19 a year. That places the area in the 70th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 2 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 25 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 100% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 35, 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

Data from the ABS on building approvals, compiled across statistical areas by AreaSearch, reveals that Beeliar averages roughly 19 dwelling approvals annually, reaching an aggregate of 96 residential approvals throughout the prior 5 financial years. In FY-25 to date, 35 approvals have been documented. Over the 5 financial years between FY-21 and FY-25, approximately 5.2 new residents arrived for every home built, creating a substantial supply-demand imbalance that typically stimulates property value gains and intensifies buyer demand. Newly approved residential dwellings indicate an expected construction cost averaging $442,000. Additionally, commercial development remains minimal, with commercial approvals totaling $3.4 million during this financial year.

Residential construction volume in Beeliar is notably subdued when compared to Greater Perth, tracking 65.0% below regional average per person. Although local building activity has picked up recently, this restricted influx of new dwellings tends to bolster demand and values across established homes. Construction rates also sit below national benchmarks, signaling established market maturity alongside possible planning or site limitations. Furthermore, recent development consists entirely of detached houses, preserving the neighborhood's low-density suburban fabric and catering to family buyers seeking larger blocks. With roughly 229 people per approval, Beeliar demonstrates the characteristics of an evolving housing market. Projections indicate that Beeliar will add 854 residents leading up to 2041, based on the latest quarterly figures from AreaSearch. If prevailing building rates persist, residential supply may struggle to keep pace with demographic expansion, potentially intensifying purchaser competition and underpinning further price growth.

Jobs & IndustryEmployment Trends in Beeliar

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

5,001 residents of Beeliar are employed, from a labour force of 5,184. Unemployment sits at 3.5%, with participation at 72.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.0% 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 7,475, about 76% 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

Beeliar features a skilled local workforce characterized by substantial participation in industrial and manufacturing trades, alongside an unemployment rate of just 3.5%, according to statistical area data synthesized by AreaSearch. As of March 2026, 5,001 local residents are employed. The unemployment rate sits 0.7% below the Greater Perth figure of 4.2%, while the labour force participation rate remains healthy at 72.7% compared to 69.9% across Greater Perth. In addition, 6.6% of workers indicated working from home in Census responses, though this reflects conditions during Covid-19 restrictions. The primary employment sectors for resident workers are health care & social assistance, construction, and retail trade.

Manufacturing represents a clear area of local specialization, holding an employment concentration 1.6 times that of the wider region. Conversely, professional & technical occupations are underrepresented locally, accounting for 6.1% of employment compared to the regional benchmark of 8.2%. The ratio of Census resident workers to local employment opportunities suggests that Beeliar functions largely as a dormitory suburb with limited internal job capacity. According to AreaSearch analysis of ABS and SALM figures aggregated across broader zones, the previous 12-month period recorded a 6.3% contraction in the labour force and a 6.5% drop in total employment, resulting in a 0.2 percentage point uptick in the unemployment rate. Over the same span, Greater Perth experienced a 2.0% increase in employment and a 2.5% expansion in the labour force, alongside a 0.4 percentage point rise. Looking ahead, national industry forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide indicative insight into future local employment demand over five- and ten-year horizons. Across the nation, total employment is projected to expand by 6.6% across five years and 13.7% across ten years, though trajectories vary by industry. Applying these sectoral growth rates to the existing occupational distribution in Beeliar suggests local employment growth of 6.0% over five years and 12.9% over ten years (calculated as a weighted extrapolation for indicative purposes, without factoring in local 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 — 114 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (8,617 at the 2021 Census → 9,857 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 (SAL50098). 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 Beeliar 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 Beeliar 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 Beeliar 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 (Aug 2026), infrastructure projects (Jul 2025) and services & amenities (Jul 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 Aug 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.
