Sales Detail
Coogee (NSW) has an estimated 15,248 residents, up from 14,634 at the 2021 Census — a change of 614 people, or 4.2%. That puts 7,942 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 population of the suburb of Coogee (NSW) is estimated at around 15,248, drawn from AreaSearch's evaluation of broader ABS population updates alongside new addresses validated since the Census. When compared to the 2021 Census tally of 14,634 people, this represents a gain of 614 people (4.2%). This demographic shift is calculated from an estimated resident population of 15,222 derived from the latest ABS ERP release (June 2025), coupled with 98 validated new addresses confirmed post-Census. With a resulting density ratio of 7,941 persons per square kilometer, the suburb of Coogee (NSW) places in the top 10% of national locations evaluated by AreaSearch, underscoring intense demand for local land.
Recent population gains were predominantly underpinned by overseas migration, which accounted for approximately 68.0% of total growth. Demographic projections utilised by AreaSearch for each SA2 area are sourced from ABS/Geoscience Australia data released in 2024 (taking 2022 as the base year), with NSW State Government SA2 projections released in 2022 (using 2021 as the base year) applied where coverage is absent. Cohort-specific growth rates from these datasets are further applied across all territories for the years 2032 to 2041. Over the coming years, demographic trends point to lower quartile growth relative to national statistical areas, with the suburb of Coogee (NSW) projected to expand by 597 persons to 2041 under aggregated SA2-level modelling, denoting an overall rise of 3.7% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
150 new dwellings have been approved in Coogee (NSW) over the past five years, an average of 30 a year. That is 1.9 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 27 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 30% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 20, 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
Building approvals examined by AreaSearch from ABS statistical area data show that Coogee has averaged around 30 new home approvals annually, tallying an estimated 150 homes approved across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 20 recorded thus far in FY-25. Amid recent population contraction, this influx of residential supply has likely matched demand and maintained healthy purchasing options, with residential builds averaging an expected construction cost of $1,328,000 as developers focus on high-end, premium market offerings. Meanwhile, commercial planning activity has remained subdued, with commercial approvals amounting to $1.8 million this financial year.
Per capita construction in Coogee stands at roughly 66% of the Greater Sydney level, ranking the locality in the 17th percentile nationwide and pointing to constrained buyer choice alongside heightened demand for existing stock. This comparatively low level of building activity against national benchmarks highlights a mature urban footprint and potential planning constraints. Approvals for new residential dwellings are divided into 30.0% detached houses and 70.0% medium and high-density housing, delivering accessible price brackets suitable for first-home buyers, investors, and downsizers. Detached homes represent a higher share of new approvals than their 11.0% share recorded at Census, underscoring enduring appetite for standalone family properties despite densification. Overall market maturity is further reflected in a ratio of approximately 825 people per dwelling approval. From the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimate through to 2041, Coogee is forecast to add 571 residents. Prevailing construction and development trends indicate that forthcoming residential supply should comfortably accommodate demand, creating favourable conditions for purchasers and potentially facilitating population growth beyond current projections.

11,060 residents of Coogee (NSW) are employed, from a labour force of 11,286. Unemployment sits at 2.0%, with participation at 84.1%. 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. The working-day population is estimated at 11,051, about 72% 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
Coogee is characterized by a well-educated labor force featuring strong representation in the technology sector, an unemployment rate of only 2.0%, and an estimated 1.8% annual expansion in employment based on aggregated statistical area figures from AreaSearch. As of March 2026, employed residents total 11,060, while local unemployment sits 2.1% below the Greater Sydney benchmark of 4.1%. Labor force participation is exceptionally robust at 84.1% against 68.9% across Greater Sydney. In addition, Census records indicated that a notable 59.2% of workers operated from home, though this figure was influenced by Covid-19 lockdown measures.
The primary employment sectors for local residents are professional & technical, health care & social assistance, and education & training. The workforce exhibits notable industry specialization in professional & technical fields, where representation reaches 1.6 times the regional average. Conversely, retail trade accounts for a comparatively modest 5.2% of employment, below the 9.3% seen regionally. Given the contrast between resident workers and the Census working population, the predominantly residential suburb offers relatively few local jobs. AreaSearch assessment of broader ABS and SALM data shows that local employment expanded by 1.8% over the 12-month period alongside a matching 1.8% rise in the labour force, preserving a stable unemployment rate; by comparison, Greater Sydney saw employment and labour force gains of 1.9% and 1.9% respectively, accompanied by a marginal drop. Longer-term workforce trajectory can be gauged via Jobs and Skills Australia national forecasts from Mar-26 across five and ten-year horizons. Nationally, job numbers are projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though trajectories diverge widely across industries. Applying these sector forecasts to Coogee's workforce profile suggests local employment could expand by 7.5% over five years and 14.9% over ten years, though this weighted extrapolation is purely illustrative and excludes local population modelling.

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 — 98 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (14,634 at the 2021 Census → 15,248 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.
