Braddon has an estimated 7,489 residents, up from 6,383 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,106 people, or 17.3%. Growth has averaged 3.4% a year over five years, faster than 88% of areas nationally. 135 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Overseas migration accounts for 54.0% of that increase. That puts 5,311 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 evaluations of ABS population updates for the wider region, alongside new addresses validated by AreaSearch since the Census, the population of the suburb of Braddon is estimated to be approximately 7,489 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 1,106 people (17.3%) from the 2021 Census, which recorded a population of 6,383 people. The adjustment is derived from the resident population of 7,488, estimated by AreaSearch using the latest ABS ERP data release (June 2025) and an extra 135 validated new addresses since the Census date. This population size results in a density ratio of 5,311 persons per square kilometer, placing the locality in the top 10% of national locations analyzed by AreaSearch, highlighting land here as a highly-sought resource.
The 17.3% growth since the 2021 census surpassed both the state (8.3%) and the SA4 region, establishing the suburb of Braddon as a regional growth leader. Population increases were mostly driven by overseas migration, which made up approximately 54.0% of total population gains lately, though interstate migration and natural growth also made positive contributions. AreaSearch utilizes ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, published in 2024 with 2022 as the base year. For SA2 areas lacking this data, and for periods after 2032, age group growth rates from ACT Government SA2 area projections, with a 2022 base, are implemented. Looking at population projections moving forward, a substantial population rise in the top quartile of national areas is predicted for the suburb of Braddon, with the area projected to grow by 3,056 persons to 2041 based on compiled SA2-level projections, representing a total gain of 40.8% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
119 new dwellings have been approved in Braddon over the past five years, an average of 23 a year. That is 3.7 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 741, 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 analysis of ABS building approvals allocated from statistical area data, Braddon averages approximately 23 dwelling approvals annually, summing to an estimated 119 homes over the last 5 financial years. In the current FY-26680 approvals have been documented. With an average of 9.7 new residents per year for each home constructed over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), demand outstrips new supply, which typically drives up prices and buyer competition, while new dwellings are constructed at an average value of $244,000. Commercial approvals for this financial year stand at $8.4 million, highlighting that the area is mostly residential.
In comparison to the Australian Capital Territory, Braddon displays far less development activity, running 73.0% below the regional average per capita. This lack of new inventory generally bolsters demand and prices for existing properties. Recent building activity consists of 10.0% detached homes and 90.0% townhouses or apartments. This emphasis on higher-density housing provides more accessible entry points and appeals to downsizers, investors, and first-time buyers. Having around 1476 people per approval indicates that Braddon is a mature, established locality. Projecting forward, Braddon is expected to expand by 3,055 residents through to 2041 based on the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimate. If current building rates persist, housing supply may fall short of population growth, which could increase competition among buyers and support stronger price gains.

5,739 residents of Braddon are employed, from a labour force of 5,925. Unemployment sits at 3.1%, with participation at 82.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.4% 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. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Braddon has a highly educated workforce with a major presence of professional services, an unemployment rate of only 3.1%, and steady employment levels over the last year, according to AreaSearch compilations of statistical area data. As of March 2026, there are 5,739 employed residents, and the unemployment rate is 0.9% below the Australian Capital Territory average of 4.1%, while workforce participation is exceptionally high at 82.7% compared to the Australian Capital Territory average of 70.8%. Census data indicates a minor portion of 12.4% of residents worked from home, although Covid-19 lockdown circumstances should be kept in mind.
Resident employment is concentrated in public administration & safety, professional & technical, and education & training. The locality is highly specialized in public administration & safety, showing an employment share 1.4 times the regional average. By contrast, health care & social assistance is underrepresented at 6.7% compared to the regional average of 11.7%. The ratio of 0.7 workers per resident at the Census indicates a level of local job opportunities that is above the norm. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS data aggregated from wider statistical areas, employment grew by 0.2% and the labor force expanded by 1.2% over the 12 months to March 2026, leading to a 1.0 percentage point rise in the unemployment rate. In comparison, the Australian Capital Territory saw employment grow by 0.3%, the labor force expand by 1.1%, and unemployment rise by 0.7 percentage points. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia dated May-25 offer additional context on future demand within Braddon. These projections, spanning five and ten-year periods, are mapped against local employment profiles to estimate future growth. While national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates vary widely by industry. Projecting these industry-specific trends onto the local employment mix suggests Braddon's employment should rise by 6.4% over five years and 13.0% over ten years, serving as a simple weighted extrapolation for illustrative purposes without accounting for local population projections.

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 — 135 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (6,383 at the 2021 Census → 7,489 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 May 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.
