Detail
As of Aug 2026, the population of the suburb of Belrose stands at approximately 8,823 according to AreaSearch evaluations combining regional ABS demographic releases with newly validated addresses since the Census. Compared to the 8,726 residents recorded in the 2021 Census, this indicates an expansion of 97 people (1.1%). This progression is derived from an Estimated Resident Population of 8,821 determined from the ABS June 2025 ERP release alongside 137 validated new addresses added post-Census. With a density of 652 persons per square kilometer, the suburb of Belrose offers generous living room with capacity for future growth.
The 1.1% post-Census increase in the suburb of Belrose trails the wider SA3 rate of 3.7% by 2.6 percentage points, reflecting steady underlying dynamics. Net overseas migration served as the primary growth engine, generating around 72.0% of recent population additions. Projections utilised by AreaSearch draw on 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia models (2022 base year) for SA2 locations, supplemented by 2022 NSW State Government SA2 datasets (2021 base year) where necessary. Age-specific growth distributions from these sources are carried forward across all districts from 2032 to 2041. Looking ahead, the suburb of Belrose is tracking towards lower-quartile growth relative to national benchmarks, with aggregated SA2 figures pointing to a modest addition of 193 persons by 2041, representing total growth of 2.2% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
334 new dwellings have been approved in Belrose over the past five years, an average of 66 a year. That is 2.6 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 22 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 41% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 9, 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
According to ABS residential building permit figures compiled by AreaSearch, Belrose averages roughly 66 approved dwellings annually, totalling an estimated 334 approved homes across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 9 approved to date in FY-25. In the context of recent demographic contraction, this level of building activity provides sufficient supply for prospective buyers. New residential builds carry an average construction value of $730,000, underscoring a pipeline oriented towards high-end and premium stock. Meanwhile, commercial planning activity remains modest, with $5.8 million in commercial approvals logged so far this financial year.
Per-capita building rates in Belrose align closely with Greater Sydney averages, supporting a stable supply-demand dynamic. However, construction intensity sits beneath the national benchmark, reflecting an established urban footprint and potential local planning limits. Of newly approved residential stock, 41.0% are detached houses while 59.0% are attached dwellings. This transition towards medium-density options delivers more accessible price points for first-home purchasers, downsizers, and property investors, marking a clear pivot away from the existing neighbourhood profile of 80.0% standalone houses due to tighter land supply and shifting demographic preferences. An estimated ratio of 1179 people per approved dwelling highlights a comparatively restrained development landscape. Longer-term demographic projections indicate that Belrose will gain 191 residents by 2041 relative to the latest AreaSearch quarterly figures. Existing construction trajectories appear well-positioned to satisfy incoming housing demand, fostering a balanced environment for purchasers and accommodating potential upside beyond baseline forecasts.

Frequently Asked Questions - Infrastructure
Belrose Village Green
Belrose Village Green is a new neighbourhood retail centre on Forest Way. The development will deliver a full line supermarket (Coles), specialty shops, medical and allied health services, food and beverage outlets, and a childcare facility. The project features a modern village style design aimed at serving the surrounding Northern Beaches community with upgraded pedestrian access and high-quality amenities.
Davidson Park Environmental Restoration
Comprehensive environmental restoration project focused on native habitat rehabilitation, erosion control, and biodiversity enhancement in Davidson Park.
Patyegarang (Lizard Rock) Housing Development
The Patyegarang (Lizard Rock) planning proposal is spearheaded by the Metropolitan Local Aboriginal Land Council (MLALC) to deliver up to 450 low-to-medium density homes alongside Aboriginal cultural facilities. Located on a 71-hectare bushland parcel, the masterplan sets aside approximately 51 hectares for environmental conservation while establishing community infrastructure and economic opportunities for Aboriginal people. The rezoning planning proposal has undergone public exhibition and strategic assessment through the NSW Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure.
Glenrose Village Shopping Centre Redevelopment and Expansion
Redevelopment and expansion of the Glenrose Village neighbourhood shopping centre in Belrose, including a Woolworths supermarket, ALDI supermarket, specialty retail tenancies, upgraded parking, and a dining precinct fronting Glen Street. The multi-stage project delivered an open-air village style centre with improved access and everyday retail options supporting local community facilities.
Belrose North Residential Release
Mirvac's proposed masterplanned community in the Belrose North precinct, envisaged to deliver approximately 250 new homes including townhomes, terraces and apartments on land around Wyatt Avenue and Ralston Avenue. The site forms part of the Oxford Falls Valley and Belrose North deferred lands area. The earlier standalone planning proposal to rezone Lot 1 DP 1139826 at Ralston Avenue (PP-2021-470) was refused and is not proceeding. Rezoning of the broader deferred lands is now being addressed through the new Northern Beaches comprehensive LEP, which received a Gateway Determination in October 2025 and is being revised for public exhibition in 2026, with gazettal not expected before 2027.
Forestway Shopping Centre Redevelopment
A $34 million modernization of the 1966-era Forestway Shopping Centre. Following the completion of Stage 1 internal upgrades and new amenities, the project has progressed to Stage 2. This phase features the demolition of the multi-storey car park to be replaced by at-grade and two-level basement parking (585 spaces), new entry statements, and major facade upgrades. The expansion adds approximately 5,000sqm of retail space, including a new Harris Farm supermarket, a swim school, and an expanded Soul Athletic Club.Recent early 2026 modifications refined operating hours to 7am-10pm and addressed waste collection logistics to support the intensified use.
Northern Beaches Hospital
A $2 billion public-private partnership hospital project providing 488 beds, 14 operating theatres, and 50 emergency department spaces, offering acute and complex care, maternity, and mental health services. Completed in 2018, the NSW Government has announced the facility will return to full public ownership by mid-2026. A new High Volume Planned Surgery Centre is also set to open at the site by July 2026 to perform 5,000 additional surgeries annually.
Forest Way Cycle Path Extension
Dedicated cycling infrastructure connecting Forestville to broader Northern Beaches cycle network, promoting sustainable transport and recreational cycling.
4,421 residents of Belrose are employed, from a labour force of 4,559. Unemployment sits at 3.0%, with participation at 62.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.0% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 9,703, about 110% of the resident population, so the area draws in more workers than it sends out. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Local workforce figures compiled by AreaSearch indicate that Belrose features a highly skilled labour pool with prominent representation across the technology sector, accompanied by a low jobless rate of 3.0% and stable employment conditions over the preceding year. As of March 2026, employed residents count 4,421, with the local unemployment rate tracking 1.1% below the Greater Sydney figure of 4.1%. Conversely, labour force participation of 62.0% sits well behind Greater Sydney's 68.9%. Census records indicate that 51.9% of local workers operated from home, an outcome influenced by prevailing Covid-19 restrictions at the time.
Resident employment is primarily clustered within professional & technical services, health care & social assistance, and retail trade. In contrast, transport, postal & warehousing accounts for just 2.9% of the local workforce, compared to the regional benchmark of 5.3%. A local ratio of 0.7 workers per resident at the Census indicates a comparatively strong base of surrounding employment opportunities. According to AreaSearch evaluations of ABS and SALM figures over the past 12 months, local employment rose by 0.4% while the labour pool grew by 1.4%, causing the unemployment rate to climb by 0.9 percentage points. Across Greater Sydney over the same timeframe, employment expanded by 1.9%, the labour force grew by 1.9%, and unemployment contracted slightly. Drawing on Jobs and Skills Australia national projections from Mar-26 across five- and ten-year horizons, expected nationwide job growth of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years varies widely by discipline. Applying these sectoral growth weights to the local workforce composition points to projected employment growth for Belrose of 7.0% over five years and 14.1% over ten years, representing an illustrative baseline that excludes localized population adjustments.

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 — 137 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (8,726 at the 2021 Census → 8,823 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.
