Sales Detail
Connolly has an estimated 4,091 residents, up from 3,675 at the 2021 Census — a change of 416 people, or 11.3%. Growth has averaged 1.5% a year over five years, faster than 75% of areas nationally. Overseas migration accounts for 56.0% of that increase. That puts 1,446 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
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Connolly records an estimated population of roughly 4,091, derived from AreaSearch evaluation of broader ABS demographic releases alongside 9 validated new addresses confirmed since the Census. When compared to the 3,675 people counted during the 2021 Census, this represents an addition of 416 people (11.3%). This updated figure builds upon the resident population estimate of 4,083 established by AreaSearch following the ABS ERP release in June 2025. Consequently, the local density stands at 1,445 persons per square kilometer, sitting above the benchmark across national locations evaluated by AreaSearch.
Furthermore, the 11.3% expansion recorded in the suburb of Connolly since the 2021 census outperformed both the wider SA3 area and the national average (9.5%), establishing the suburb as a regional growth frontrunner. International arrivals served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 56.00000000000001% of all recent population additions. Projections for the suburb of Connolly incorporate ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 modeling published in 2024 (anchored to 2022). For unrepresented areas and subsequent periods following post-2032, calculations integrate cohort growth dynamics from the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023, using 2022 data). Demographic trajectories point to above median population growth relative to Australian statistical areas, with the suburb of Connolly projected to expand by 580 persons to 2041 under aggregated SA2 models, delivering a cumulative increase of 14.0% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
Detail
Residential building approvals allocated from statistical area data and evaluated by AreaSearch show that Connolly registers approximately 3 new residential approvals annually, totaling roughly 16 dwellings across the past 5 financial years (spanning FY-21 and FY-25), with 9 approved during FY-25 to date. Over that identical 5 financial years span (between FY-21 and FY-25), an influx of 11.3 people per year occurred for each newly constructed residence, creating substantial demand pressure that exceeds supply, heightens purchaser competition, and escalates property values. Concurrently, anticipated construction costs for new dwellings average $323,000, coming in under regional norms to provide comparatively accessible building pricing for purchasers.
Non-residential development remains subdued, with commercial building approvals totaling $538,000 this financial year. Building volume per capita in Connolly lags Greater Perth significantly, trailing the wider metropolitan benchmark by 51.0% per person. Although residential construction has accelerated across recent intervals, this restrained pipeline curbs fresh supply, reinforcing demand and asset pricing across existing homes. Residential activity also sits beneath the countrywide benchmark, reflecting an established urban landscape potentially constrained by planning frameworks. Compositionally, approvals consist of 80.0% detached houses and 20.0% medium and high-density housing, preserving local suburban character and appealing to purchasers seeking standalone space. Generating approximately 507 people per dwelling approval, Connolly displays the characteristics of an established, mature housing market. Demographic outlooks indicate Connolly is slated to add 572 residents through to 2041 based on the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimate. Should dwelling construction proceed at prevailing volumes, residential deliveries may trail population expansion, compounding buyer competition and reinforcing upward momentum in property prices.

2,469 residents of Connolly are employed, from a labour force of 2,543. Unemployment sits at 2.9%, with participation at 73.3%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.5% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 3,093, about 76% 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
Connolly maintains a highly capable local workforce with substantial participation across essential services, characterized by a low unemployment rate of 2.9% and an estimated 3.8% annual job expansion, according to aggregated statistical area figures from AreaSearch. By March 2026, employed locals reached 2,469 residents, while local unemployment registered 1.3% beneath the Greater Perth benchmark of 4.2%. Labour participation remains solid at 73.3%, surpassing the 69.9% observed across Greater Perth. In addition, Census data showed a modest 12.4% of workers operating from home, an outcome subject to prevailing Covid-19 lockdown conditions at that time.
Health care & social assistance, education & training, and construction represent the leading employment sectors for local residents. The workforce exhibits notable concentration in education & training, where local employment share reaches 1.4 times the regional proportion. By contrast, transport, postal & warehousing represents a smaller share of resident jobs at 2.6%, trailing the 4.7% regional benchmark. Comparing resident numbers against the Census working population confirms the suburb functions primarily as a residential community with modest internal employment generation. AreaSearch assessment of aggregated ABS and SALM metrics demonstrates that across the 12 months to March 2026, local employment expanded by 3.8% and the labour pool grew by 3.9%, maintaining steady unemployment figures. Over the same timeframe, Greater Perth saw employment and labour force gains of 2.0% and 2.5% respectively, accompanied by a 0.4 percentage point rise in unemployment. Long-term labour demand can be evaluated using Jobs and Skills Australia national forecasts from Mar-26, which project nationwide employment growth of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years across varying industries. Applying these baseline sectoral paths to Connolly's occupational structure projects resident employment expansion of 6.5% over five years and 13.5% over ten years (calculated via basic weighting extrapolation for illustrative reference, omitting localized population adjustments).

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 — 9 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,675 at the 2021 Census → 4,091 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.
