Detail
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Caulfield North is estimated to have a population of approximately 19,775, based on AreaSearch's evaluation of broader regional ABS population updates alongside new addresses verified since the Census. When measured against the 16,903 residents recorded in the 2021 Census, this indicates an expansion of 2,872 people (17.0%). This figure stems from a resident base of 18,982 determined by AreaSearch after reviewing the ABS ERP release from June 2025, combined with 1,044 validated new addresses added post-Census. With a resulting density of 4,708 persons per square kilometer, the suburb ranks within the top 10% of areas evaluated nationally by AreaSearch, underscoring intense local land demand.
Outperforming both the broader state and the SA4 region (8.2%), the suburb of Caulfield North emerged as a key regional growth center with its 17.0% post-2021 Census gain. Recent population increases were largely propelled by overseas arrivals, who accounted for roughly 87.0% of total additions. Projections for each SA2 area released by ABS/Geoscience Australia in 2024 (using 2022 as a base year) are incorporated by AreaSearch, while VIC State Government Regional/LGA figures from 2023 are applied via a weighted aggregation approach from LGA down to SA2 levels for any missing sectors. These aggregated models also supply age-group growth rates across all locations for the 2032 to 2041 period. Looking ahead, the suburb of Caulfield North is projected to rank in the highest quartile among Australian statistical territories for demographic expansion, adding 4,751 persons by 2041 under consolidated SA2 models, which represents an overall 20.0% surge across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
1,188 new dwellings have been approved in Caulfield North over the past five years, an average of 237 a year. That places the area in the 65th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 12 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 133 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 15% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 42, well below 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
Dwelling approval data from the ABS, compiled by AreaSearch from statistical area metrics, indicates that Caulfield North has seen an annual average of roughly 237 residential permits, totaling around 1,188 dwellings across the previous 5 financial years. Within FY-25 to date, 42 residential approvals have been documented. Over the 5 financial years spanning FY-21 to FY-25, an average of 2.2 new residents per dwelling per year points to solid residential demand that supports underlying values. Construction targets the upper-tier segment, with average building costs reaching $1,503,000 per dwelling. Furthermore, commercial approvals totaling $30.8 million during the current financial year highlight strong commercial construction momentum.
Per capita residential construction in Caulfield North stood 31.0% above the regional average over the 5 year period relative to Greater Melbourne, offering sufficient supply for purchasers while underpinning established values, despite a recent moderating of building pace. Recent building permits are divided between 15.0% detached houses and 85.0% medium and high-density housing options. This strong orientation toward denser living formats presents more accessible pricing for first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors. It also marks a notable evolution from the established residential profile of 36.0% detached houses, accommodating changing lifestyle preferences and affordability pressures amidst limited development land. A ratio of roughly 374 people per approval further reflects an established, mature residential setting. According to the latest quarterly estimate from AreaSearch, Caulfield North is projected to welcome an additional 3,958 residents by 2041. Ongoing construction trends suggest that prospective residential supply is well positioned to absorb projected demand, maintaining favorable purchasing conditions and potentially accommodating demographic growth beyond current estimates.

11,033 residents of Caulfield North are employed, from a labour force of 11,533. Unemployment sits at 4.3%, with participation at 70.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.5% 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. The working-day population is estimated at 16,311, 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
Workforce figures aggregated by AreaSearch from statistical area metrics show Caulfield North possesses a highly educated labor pool with significant professional services representation, an unemployment rate of 4.3%, and consistent employment levels over the preceding year. Employed residents numbered 11,033 as of March 2026, while local joblessness stood 0.4% below the 4.8% recorded for Greater Melbourne, alongside a labor participation rate that matched Greater Melbourne's 70.1%. At the time of the Census, 45.9% of local workers reported working from home, a figure influenced by Covid-19 pandemic movement restrictions. Key sectors employing local residents include professional & technical, health care & social assistance, and education & training.
The local talent base displays a notable concentration in professional & technical fields, where representation reaches 1.7 times the regional benchmark. Conversely, the construction sector engages only 5.1% of resident workers, trailing the 9.7% benchmark across Greater Melbourne. Comparison between Census resident worker numbers and local jobs highlights that this predominantly residential district provides limited workplace opportunities within its own boundaries. Analysis of SALM and ABS data, drawn from broader statistical areas, shows that over the 12 months to March 2026, the labour force grew by 0.2% while employment fell by 0.1%, resulting in a 0.2 percentage point increase in unemployment. In contrast, Greater Melbourne experienced a 2.3% rise in the labour force and a 2.1% increase in employment, with unemployment also rising by 0.2 percentage points. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from Mar-26 provide additional perspective on potential future demand within Caulfield North. These projections, which span five and ten-year periods, have been aligned with the local employment profile to estimate growth trends. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, expansion rates vary considerably across industry sectors. When these sector-specific forecasts are applied to Caulfield North's employment composition, local employment is expected to rise by 7.5% over five years and 15.0% over ten years (please note this is a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not take into account localised 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 — 1,044 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (16,903 at the 2021 Census → 19,775 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 (SAL20523). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
