Frequently Asked Questions - Population
50 new dwellings have been approved in Beresfield over the past five years, an average of 10 a year. That is 2.7 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 14, 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
According to AreaSearch's evaluation of ABS building approvals across statistical areas, residential building permits in Beresfield have averaged roughly 10 dwellings annually, totalling an estimated 50 homes approved across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 14 approvals logged in FY-25 to date. Over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), the locality absorbed an average of 2.6 new residents per approved dwelling, demonstrating resilient underlying demand. New residential builds carry an average construction cost of $262,000, coming in lower than regional averages and providing relatively accessible price points.
Concurrently, non-residential growth has gathered pace, supported by $45.7 million in approved commercial projects during this financial year. Per capita residential building volumes in Beresfield track at roughly half the rate observed across Rest of NSW, placing the area in the 62nd percentile across the nation despite recent gains in construction velocity. This subdued per-capita volume compared to broader benchmarks highlights a mature urban footprint alongside potential planning constraints. Approvals remain heavily oriented toward low-density living, with 78.0% standalone houses and 22.0% semi-detached dwellings or apartments, accommodating family lifestyles that require more land. Overall, development density is reflected in a metric of approximately 212 people per dwelling approval. Based on the most recent quarterly figures from AreaSearch, Beresfield is forecast to expand by 137 residents by 2041. Ongoing residential construction trajectories suggest local supply will adequately cater to housing requirements, maintaining favorable conditions for purchasers while accommodating potential population gains above baseline forecasts.

1,572 residents of Beresfield are employed, from a labour force of 1,723. Unemployment sits at 8.8%, with participation at 60.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Beresfield maintains a mixed employment base combining white-collar and industrial occupations, underpinned by a prominent manufacturing presence and a local jobless rate of 8.8% based on aggregated statistical area records from AreaSearch. As of March 2026, employed locals total 1,572 persons, with the unemployment rate tracking 4.7% higher than the 4.1% seen across Regional NSW, whereas labour force participation matches the Regional NSW benchmark of 60.6%. Census figures show only 12.6% of workers operating from home, an estimate that may reflect prevailing Covid-19 restrictions at the time. The resident workforce is predominantly employed across construction, manufacturing, and health care & social assistance.
Industrial specialization is particularly pronounced, with manufacturing's share of local jobs tracking at 2.3 times the regional average. In contrast, public administration & safety accounts for just 4.3% of resident employment, trailing the 7.5% regional norm. A comparison of Census local job figures against resident worker tallies indicates substantial outward commuting to employment hubs elsewhere. AreaSearch evaluations of ABS and SALM metrics indicate that over the 12-month timeframe, the local workforce grew by 0.2% while total employment fell by 3.0%, generating a 3.0 percentage points increase in the jobless rate. By comparison, Regional NSW recorded a 0.9% drop in employment alongside a 0.4% contraction in the labour pool, resulting in a 0.5 percentage point rise. Broader employment outlooks published by Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide an indication of structural labour demand across Beresfield over five and ten-year horizons. Across the nation, total employment is anticipated to increase by 6.6% across five years and 13.7% across ten years, with distinct variations across sectors. Weighting these projections against Beresfield's sectoral breakdown yields an estimated local job growth of 5.8% across five years and 12.7% across ten years, representing an illustrative industry-weighted model rather than a localized population forecast.

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 — 141 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,267 at the 2021 Census → 3,414 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 (SAL10301). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
