Population
Beldon lies within the top 10% of areas nationally in terms of population growth performance according to AreaSearch analysis of short and medium-term trends
As of November 2025, the population of Beldon is estimated at around 236,644, reflecting an increase of 21,546 people since the 2021 Census. The 2021 Census reported a population of 215,098 for the suburb. This growth, equivalent to 10.0%, is inferred from AreaSearch's estimate of 4,397 residents in June 2024 based on ABS ERP data and seven validated new addresses since the Census date. This results in a population density of 108,552 persons per square kilometer, exceeding national averages assessed by AreaSearch. Beldon's growth rate of 10.0% since the 2021 census surpassed both the SA3 area average (8.9%) and the national average. Overseas migration contributed approximately 80.0% to overall population gains during recent periods, with all migration drivers being positive factors.
AreaSearch adopts ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, released in 2024 using 2022 as the base year. For areas not covered by this data and post-2032 estimates, AreaSearch uses growth rates by age cohort provided by the ABS in its Greater Capital Region projections (released in 2023, based on 2022 data). Future demographic trends predict exceptional growth for Beldon, with an expected expansion of 21,050 persons to reach a total population of 257,694 by 2041. This reflects a 15.6% increase over the 17-year period.

Development
The level of residential development activity in Beldon was found to be higher than 90% of real estate markets across the country
AreaSearch analysis of ABS building approval numbers, allocated from statistical area data, shows Beldon experienced around 670 dwelling approvals annually over the past five financial years, totalling an estimated 3,351 homes. As of FY-26311 approvals have been recorded. This indicates an average of approximately 5 new residents per year arriving per dwelling constructed between FY-21 and FY-25, suggesting demand outpaces supply, which typically influences prices upwards and increases buyer competition. Developers target the premium market segment with higher-end properties, as new dwellings are developed at an average value of $723,000.
This financial year has seen $381.4 million in commercial approvals registered, indicating robust local business investment. Compared to Rest of WA, Beldon records 81% more construction activity per person, offering buyers greater choice. New building activity comprises 97% detached houses and 3% attached dwellings, preserving the area's suburban nature with an emphasis on detached housing attracting space-seeking buyers. This represents a shift from the existing housing stock, which is currently 176% houses, indicating decreasing availability of developable sites and reflecting changing lifestyles and demand for more diverse, affordable housing options. The location has approximately 354 people per dwelling approval, demonstrating an established market.
Given stable or declining population forecasts, Beldon may experience less housing pressure in the future, creating favourable conditions for buyers.
