Connells Point has an estimated 2,918 residents, up from 2,884 at the 2021 Census — a change of 34 people, or 1.2%. That puts 2,833 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 ABS population updates for the wider region and new address verifications by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Connells Point has an estimated population of approximately 2,918 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 34 individuals (1.2%) compared to the 2,884 residents recorded in the 2021 Census. This adjustment is based on a resident population estimate of 2,909 calculated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 ERP data release, combined with an additional 4 verified new addresses since the Census. The resulting population density stands at 2,833 residents per square kilometer, placing the suburb in the top quartile of all Australian locations analyzed by AreaSearch.
The primary driver of this population growth was overseas migration, which accounted for approximately 95.0% of the net gains in recent times. Projections for each SA2 region published in 2024 (using 2022 as the base year) by the ABS and Geoscience Australia have been adopted by AreaSearch, with the NSW State Government's 2022 projections (using 2021 as the base year) utilized for any areas missing from the primary dataset. Age cohort growth rates derived from these figures are applied to projections spanning 2032 to 2041. Future demographic analysis indicates that the suburb of Connells Point is set to experience population growth exceeding the national median, with projections estimating an increase of 601 residents by 2041, representing a total growth rate of 20.3% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
Detail
Based on AreaSearch's allocation of ABS building approval statistics, the suburb of Connells Point has averaged roughly 3 residential approvals annually. This totals 16 approved dwellings over the 5 fiscal years from FY-21 to FY-25, with no new approvals recorded during FY-26 so far. Despite a declining population, this construction rate has been relatively sufficient, which benefits prospective buyers, while the average value of these new builds is $644,000, showing that builders are targeting the higher-end market with premium homes. Furthermore, commercial approvals worth $795,000 have been registered in the current fiscal year, highlighting that the neighborhood remains predominantly residential.
In comparison to Greater Sydney, construction levels in the suburb of Connells Point are extremely low, sitting at 71.0% below the regional per capita average. This restricted development pipeline typically sustains demand and prices for existing homes. Building volumes are also below the national standard, reflecting the mature state of the local market and suggesting potential zoning constraints. The incoming residential supply is split equally, with 50.0% consisting of standalone houses and 50.0% of semi-detached dwellings. This emphasis on medium density provides entry-level pricing options and appeals to downsizers, property investors, and first-time buyers. This trend is a clear departure from the historical layout where houses make up 90.0% of properties, indicating a scarcity of raw land and a shift toward modern lifestyle needs and cost-effective housing options. There are roughly 5,814 residents for every single approved dwelling, confirming the established nature of the market. According to the latest quarterly estimate from AreaSearch, future population forecasts show the suburb of Connells Point expanding by 592 residents by 2041. If the current pace of building persists, the supply of housing will likely fall behind this population expansion, which could heighten buyer rivalry and drive up residential values.

1,728 residents of Connells Point are employed, from a labour force of 1,738. Unemployment sits at 0.6%, with participation at 71.3%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.1% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,240, about 77% 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 suburb of Connells Point features a highly qualified labor force with a notable concentration of professionals, an unemployment rate of only 0.6%, and estimated jobs growth of 1.8% over the past twelve months based on regional data compiled by AreaSearch. In March 2026, employed residents numbered 1,728, with the local unemployment rate sitting 3.6% lower than the Greater Sydney average of 4.1%. Workforce participation is normal, standing at 71.3% compared to 69.1% across Greater Sydney. Census responses indicated that a significant 48.1% of employees worked from home, though this figure may have been influenced by pandemic-related restrictions.
Local employment is largely centered in healthcare & social assistance, professional & technical roles, and construction. The construction sector shows a strong local concentration, employing workers at a rate of 1.2 times the metropolitan average. Conversely, manufacturing is less prominent, employing only 4.1% of local workers compared to 5.7% across Greater Sydney. The imbalance between the Census working population and resident population indicates that this residential suburb offers few local jobs. Analysis of SALM and ABS data, combined from larger statistical regions, indicates that over the 12 months to March 2026, employment grew by 1.8% and the labour force also expanded by 1.8%, which helped maintain the unemployment rate at a relatively steady level. This trend stands in contrast to Greater Sydney, where employment climbed by 1.9%, the labour force grew by 1.9%, and the unemployment rate saw a slight decline. Jobs and Skills Australia’s national employment forecasts released in May-25 provide additional context regarding future job demand in Connells Point. These outlooks span five and ten-year horizons and have been overlaid onto the local employment composition to project growth trajectories. Nationally, employment is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and by 13.7% over ten years, though these gains are not evenly distributed across all sectors. When these sector-specific forecasts are applied to Connells Point’s current employment structure, the area is expected to see employment grow by 7.1% over five years and by 14.3% over ten years. This calculation relies on basic weighting for illustrative use and does not incorporate localized 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 — 4 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (2,884 at the 2021 Census → 2,918 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 (SAL11013). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
