Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.
Detail
In the suburb of Caddens, demographic assessments incorporating broader ABS data and newly confirmed post-Census addresses place the local count at approximately 3,886 as of Aug 2026. This represents an expansion of 399 people (11.4%) relative to the 2021 Census tally of 3,487 people. This total stems from an estimated resident base of 3,871 determined via the ABS ERP figures from June 2025 alongside 166 validated new addresses logged post-Census. At 3,925 persons per square kilometer, the resulting density ranks in the nation's highest 10% on AreaSearch metrics, highlighting intense demand for local real estate.
Outpacing both the wider state and the broader SA4 region (6.3%), the 11.4% expansion since the 2021 census establishes the suburb of Caddens as a regional frontrunner in population growth. While positive contributions came from natural increase and interstate movements, inbound overseas migration served as the core catalyst, generating roughly 44.0% of recent population additions. Projections for each SA2 district rely primarily on the 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia dataset with a 2022 baseline, supplemented where necessary by 2022 NSW State Government SA2 modeling anchored to 2021. For the period spanning 2032 to 2041, cohort-specific age trajectories from these series are applied across all localities. Long-term forecasts place the suburb of Caddens in the top quartile nationally for future gains, with SA2 projections indicating an influx of 1,238 persons through to 2041, culminating in an overall 16 years expansion of 31.5%.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
92 new dwellings have been approved in Caddens over the past five years, an average of 18 a year. That places the area in the 78th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 5 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 23 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 83% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 24, 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
Analysis of ABS building approvals across statistical areas shows Caddens averaging roughly 18 residential authorizations annually, totaling an estimated 92 homes across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 24 recorded to date in FY-25. With approximately 7.2 new residents per year arriving per dwelling constructed over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), construction continues to lag local demand, creating competitive buyer conditions and upward pricing pressure alongside an average construction cost of $460,000 per dwelling. Reflecting the predominantly residential landscape, approvals for commercial developments reached $7.8 million during the current financial year.
Per capita residential construction in Caddens aligns closely with Greater Sydney, sustaining steady balance relative to the broader metropolitan market. Standalone houses account for 83.0% of new residential development, while medium and high-density housing makes up 17.0%, preserving the classic suburban character geared toward family living. With an average of roughly 173 people per approval, Caddens displays the attributes of an active growth area. According to the latest quarterly AreaSearch modeling, the population of Caddens is projected to expand by 1,223 residents through to 2041. Should current construction volumes persist, housing completions may fall short of demographic expansion, likely intensifying buyer competition and reinforcing upward price momentum.

2,004 residents of Caddens are employed, from a labour force of 2,053. Unemployment sits at 2.4%, with participation at 71.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 3,164, about 81% 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
Statistical area figures compiled by AreaSearch highlight an exceptionally qualified local labor pool in Caddens, supported by solid representation in essential services and an unemployment rate of only 2.4%. As of March 2026, employed residents count 2,004 individuals, with the unemployment rate tracking 1.7% below the Greater Sydney benchmark of 4.1% and workforce participation remaining healthy at 71.5% compared to 68.9% across Greater Sydney. Census records also revealed that 37.5% of working residents carried out their roles from home, a metric partly influenced by Covid-19 restrictions. The primary employment sectors for local workers are health care & social assistance, construction, and retail trade.
Caddens shows notable concentration in health care & social assistance, where its employment share exceeds the regional benchmark by 1.3 times. Conversely, professional & technical roles account for only 6.7% of the workforce compared to 11.5% regionally. Comparing resident workers against local Census employment counts highlights that this predominantly residential district provides relatively few jobs internally. Over the 12 months to March 2026, aggregated ABS and SALM metrics indicate that Caddens experienced a 4.5% decline in its labour force alongside a 4.4% reduction in employment, leaving local unemployment largely unchanged. Conversely, Greater Sydney registered a 1.9% increase in both employment and overall labour force, accompanied by a small drop in the jobless rate. National outlooks from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide further perspective on long-term labor requirements. Nationally, employment is projected to rise 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though sector-by-sector rates vary substantially. When weighted against the local occupational profile, these sector forecasts point to prospective local job growth of 6.9% over five years and 14.1% over ten years (representing a baseline weighting model that excludes localized demographic 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 — 166 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,487 at the 2021 Census → 3,886 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 (SAL10741). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
