Sales Detail
Castlecrag has an estimated 3,186 residents, up from 2,965 at the 2021 Census — a change of 221 people, or 7.5%. Growth has averaged 0.9% a year over five years. Overseas migration accounts for 100.0% of that increase. That puts 2,110 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
Drawing on ABS regional population adjustments alongside address validations conducted by AreaSearch following the Census, the suburb of Castlecrag is projected to have approximately 3,186 residents as of Aug 2026. This marks an expansion of 221 people (7.5%) compared to the 2,965 residents recorded in the 2021 Census. Such demographic movement stems from an estimated resident baseline of 3,183 calculated by AreaSearch using the ABS ERP release from June 2025, combined with 3 validated new addresses registered post-Census. With a resulting density of 2,109 persons per square kilometer, the suburb exceeds typical nationwide benchmarks evaluated by AreaSearch.
Furthermore, the 7.5% increase achieved by the suburb of Castlecrag since the 2021 census surpassed both the broader SA4 territory (5.9%) and statewide rates, positioning it as an area pacesetter. International inward migration served as the primary catalyst, effectively accounting for virtually all population additions in the recent timeframe. Projections compiled by Geoscience Australia and the ABS published in 2024 (using 2022 baseline figures) are utilised by AreaSearch for SA2 boundaries, supplemented by 2022 NSW State Government SA2 modelling (based on 2021) for locations not otherwise captured. Cohort-specific growth rates across these aggregations are subsequently integrated across all localities covering the 2032 to 2041 period. Based on these anticipated demographic transitions, the suburb of Castlecrag is forecast to track within the lower quartile of nationwide statistical areas, expanding by 102 persons to 2041 under aggregated SA2-level figures and delivering an overall rise of 3.1% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
35 new dwellings have been approved in Castlecrag over the past five years, an average of 7 a year. That places the area in the 59th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 2 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 20 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 40% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 63, 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 evaluations of ABS building consent records mapped from statistical geographies, Castlecrag averages roughly 7 dwelling approvals each year, representing approximately 35 residences over the preceding 5 financial years. Within FY-25 to date, 63 consents have been logged. With an average influx of 1.4 new occupants annually per home built across the past 5 financial years (spanning FY-21 through FY-25), the local residential construction sector maintains balanced supply-demand dynamics. New residential construction generates an average anticipated build cost of $1,861,000 per dwelling, highlighting developer concentration on luxury, high-value dwellings.
Concurrently, commercial consents have reached $109,000 this financial year, underlining the dominant residential character of the precinct. Per capita building activity in Castlecrag aligns closely with the broader Greater Sydney market, sustaining local supply parity with surrounding districts. Recent construction approvals comprise 40.0% detached houses alongside 60.0% townhouses or apartments. This progression toward medium and higher density dwellings introduces attainable entry points that cater to downsizers, new buyers, and investors. Such output marks a distinct departure from current residential stock (where 97.0% houses predominate), reflecting both the scarcity of vacant development land and changing consumer demand for varied, cost-effective dwelling types. Generating around 70 people per approval, building patterns denote an evolving residential setting. Long-term forecasts anticipate Castlecrag absorbing 99 residents by 2041 relative to the most recent quarterly AreaSearch dataset. Under prevailing building activity levels, upcoming residential construction is well placed to satisfy demographic requirements, fostering favourable purchasing environments and enabling community expansion beyond baseline projections.

1,732 residents of Castlecrag are employed, from a labour force of 1,788. Unemployment sits at 3.1%, with participation at 65.3%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 8.0% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,606, about 82% 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
A highly qualified workforce characterises Castlecrag, showcasing exceptional representation across the technology sector, a low unemployment rate of 3.1%, and an estimated 3.8% annual rise in workforce jobs according to statistical area aggregations by AreaSearch. In March 2026, employed residents numbered 1,732, with joblessness tracking 1.0% below the 4.1% recorded for Greater Sydney, whilst local labour participation settled below regional norms (65.3% versus 68.9%). Census records show that 65.0% of local workers performed their duties from home, an outcome influenced by Covid-19 restrictions. Professional & technical services, finance & insurance, and health care & social assistance represent the primary sectors engaging local personnel.
Notably, professional & technical roles exhibit significant concentration, standing at 2.1 times regional figures. Conversely, building and construction accounts for only 4.8% of the local working population, below the 8.6% benchmark observed across Greater Sydney. Comparing the Census count of local working positions against resident worker totals indicates limited on-site commercial employment within this largely residential suburb. SALM and ABS records aggregated across wider statistical areas by AreaSearch reveal that in the year to March 2026, employed locals expanded by 3.8% alongside a 3.1% rise in the labour pool, reducing local unemployment by 0.6 percentage points. Across Greater Sydney over the same timeframe, employment climbed 1.9%, the labour supply rose 1.9%, and unemployment declined slightly. National employment projections published by Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide additional context regarding future occupational trends. These five- and ten-year models, weighted against the suburb's existing industry distribution, suggest potential local employment growth of 8.0% over five years and 15.6% over ten years, compared to nationwide projections of 6.6% and 13.7% respectively (noting this illustrative weighting model does not incorporate bespoke local population forecasts).

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 — 3 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,965 at the 2021 Census → 3,186 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.
