This analysis uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, which can materially differ from Statistical Areas (SA2) even when sharing the same name.
SAL boundaries are defined by Australia Post and the Australian Bureau of Statistics to represent commonly-known suburb names used in postal addresses.
Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census data collection and may combine multiple suburbs or use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Craigmore has an estimated 11,412 residents, up from 10,943 at the 2021 Census — a change of 469 people, or 4.3%. That puts 2,339 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 estimates for the broader region and address verifications conducted by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Craigmore has an estimated population of 11,412 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 469 residents (4.3%) relative to the 2021 Census, which recorded 10,943 people. The calculation is based on a resident population of 11,317 estimated by AreaSearch using the latest ABS ERP release (June 2025) plus 17 validated new addresses identified since the Census. This population size results in a density of 2,338 persons per square kilometer, placing the suburb of Craigmore in the top quartile of locations nationally assessed by AreaSearch.
interstate migration was the primary driver of growth, accounting for approximately 49.0% of recent gains, though all factors including natural increase and overseas migration made positive contributions. AreaSearch utilizes ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 region, which were published in 2024 using 2022 as a base. For any SA2 regions lacking this coverage, and for the years after 2032, regional and LGA projections by age bracket released by the SA State Government in 2023 (based on 2021 data) are applied via a weighted aggregation method from LGA to SA2 level. Looking ahead, demographic forecasts predict a major population rise in the top national quartile of statistical divisions, with aggregated SA2 projections indicating the suburb of Craigmore will add 3,871 residents by 2041, representing a 33.1% increase over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
54 new dwellings have been approved in Craigmore over the past five years, an average of 10 a year. That is 1.0 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 17, 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
Based on analysis of ABS building approvals mapped from statistical areas, the suburb of Craigmore has averaged approximately 10 residential approvals annually, totaling 54 homes authorized over the last 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) and 16 during FY-26 so far. With an average of 3 new residents per year for each home constructed over the last 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), demand is outstripping supply, which tends to drive up prices and heighten buyer competition, with new builds averaging an estimated cost of $329,000. Furthermore, commercial approvals have reached $10.1 million this financial year, indicating moderate commercial construction activity.
Compared with Greater Adelaide, the suburb of Craigmore displays a much lower level of residential development. This restricted construction pipeline generally supports pricing and demand for existing houses. The volume is also below the national average, pointing to local maturity and potential zoning restrictions. Additionally, all recent approvals have been standalone dwellings, maintaining the detached, suburban character of the area which draws buyers seeking spacious layouts. The ratio stands at approximately 2059 people per dwelling approval, showing a mature residential market. Demographic projections show the suburb of Craigmore is set to gain 3,776 residents by 2041, based on the most recent AreaSearch quarterly figures. If construction volumes do not rise, housing supply may fall behind population growth, potentially driving up competition among buyers and supporting price appreciation.

5,492 residents of Craigmore are employed, from a labour force of 5,841. Unemployment sits at 6.0%, with participation at 63.3%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 8,839, 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 Craigmore features a diverse workforce containing a mixture of white-collar and blue-collar roles, with a strong representation of public service positions, and an unemployment rate of 6.0% derived from AreaSearch aggregated statistical data. As of March 2026, there are 5,492 residents employed, with unemployment running 2.1% higher than the Greater Adelaide rate of 3.8%, and participation sitting slightly lower at 63.3% compared to the metropolitan average of 66.6%. Census figures show a modest 5.7% of the workforce worked from home, although this may have been influenced by pandemic lockdowns.
The primary sectors employing residents are healthcare & social assistance, retail, and manufacturing. The manufacturing sector is particularly prominent, employing residents at 1.6 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical services are underrepresented, accounting for 2.6% of employment compared to the regional figure of 7.3%. This highly residential district appears to contain few local workplaces, as shown by the comparison of working residents to the locally based workforce. AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics for the broader area shows that over the 12-month period, the labor force expanded by 0.1% while total employment dropped by 1.0%, pushing the unemployment rate up by 1.0 percentage points. In contrast, Greater Adelaide experienced a 4.2% rise in employment, a 4.0% increase in the labor force, and a 0.2 percentage point drop in unemployment. National forecasts released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 offer additional context on future labor demand for the suburb of Craigmore. These projections, spanning five and ten years, have been applied to the local workforce structure to model potential changes. While overall national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, trends vary by sector. Projecting these industry rates onto the local workforce suggests employment in the suburb of Craigmore would grow by 5.9% over five years and 12.6% over ten years, though this is a simple weighted extrapolation and does not incorporate 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 — 17 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (10,943 at the 2021 Census → 11,412 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 (SAL40325). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
