Detail
Cambridge Park has an estimated population of approximately 7,547 as of May 2026, calculated from ABS regional data updates and subsequent address validation by AreaSearch since the Census. This represents an addition of 493 residents, or 7.0%, compared to the 2021 Census count of 7,054. The estimate aligns with AreaSearch's figure of 7,530 derived from the ABS ERP release in June 2025, combined with 25 new validated addresses post-Census. With 2,880 persons per square kilometer, the suburb of Cambridge Park ranks in the top quarter of national locations for population density.
Its 7.0% expansion rate outpaced the broader SA4 region's 6.0% growth, establishing the suburb of Cambridge Park as a regional growth leader. Natural increase was the primary contributor, accounting for roughly 74.0% of the overall population expansion. Projections utilize ABS and Geoscience Australia SA2 figures published in 2024 with a 2022 baseline, supplemented by NSW Government SA2 forecasts from 2022 with a 2021 baseline where necessary. Age-specific growth trends from these sources are projected forward for the years 2032 to 2041. Future expectations suggest the suburb of Cambridge Park will experience growth slightly under the national median, with projections indicating an increase of 420 individuals by 2041, representing a total gain of 5.3% over the 16-year projection window.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
196 new dwellings have been approved in Cambridge Park over the past five years, an average of 39 a year. That places the area in the 66th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 5 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 35 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 74% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 39, broadly in line with 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
Cambridge Park averages approximately 39 residential building approvals annually, translating to an estimated 196 new dwellings sanctioned over the past 5 financial years. Thus far in FY-26, 36 developments have received approval. Reflecting solid demand that helps sustain local property values, each new home has added an average of 2.2 residents per year during the 5 financial years spanning FY-21 to FY-25. The average construction cost for these new dwellings is $283,000, which sits below the regional standard and offers more economical options for buyers. Commercial activity remains low, with only $2.3 million in approvals registered during the current financial year.
Development activity per resident matches the broader Greater Sydney average, keeping the local housing market in equilibrium. New builds consist of 74.0% standalone houses and 26.0% medium or high-density dwellings like townhouses and apartments, preserving the classic family-oriented residential feel of the area. The ratio of roughly 187 residents per approval points to an expanding residential footprint. Long-term outlooks suggest Cambridge Park will add 403 residents by 2041, relative to the latest quarterly estimate from AreaSearch. The current pace of construction appears well-positioned to satisfy this level of demand, ensuring favorable buying conditions and potentially laying the groundwork for expansion exceeding current expectations.

3,660 residents of Cambridge Park are employed, from a labour force of 3,870. Unemployment sits at 5.4%, with participation at 64.8%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.2% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 5,965, about 79% 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
The local labor market features a balanced mix of professional and trades-based occupations, with construction workers particularly well-represented, alongside an unemployment rate of 5.4%. Working residents numbered 3,660 as of March 2026, with the local jobless rate sitting 1.3% higher than the Greater Sydney average of 4.1%. Labor force participation lags the regional benchmark, sitting at 64.8% compared to 69.1% across Greater Sydney. Census responses indicated that a modest 25.1% of the workforce worked from home, though this figure was likely influenced by temporary pandemic restrictions. Most working residents are employed in healthcare and social assistance, retail, or construction.
The area exhibits a strong concentration in the construction sector, where the employment share is 1.4 times the regional average. Conversely, professional and technical services are underrepresented, accounting for 3.9% of local workers compared to 11.5% regionally. The imbalance between the local working population and resident workers suggests the area is primarily residential with few local jobs. Labor force metrics over the 12 months leading to March 2026 show a 2.9% contraction in the total labor force and a 3.2% decline in employment, pushing the unemployment rate up by 0.3 percentage points. This contrasts with Greater Sydney, which saw jobs grow by 1.9% and the labor force expand by 1.9%, alongside a slight decrease in unemployment. National employment forecasts from May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia provide further context when mapped against local occupations. Although nationwide employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, trends vary widely by sector. Applying these industry projections to the local workforce mix suggests employment for residents could expand by 6.2% over five years and 12.9% over ten years.

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 — 25 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (7,054 at the 2021 Census → 7,547 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.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (SAL10767). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
