Sales Detail
Deepdene (Vic.) has an estimated 2,062 residents, down from 2,101 at the 2021 Census — a change of 39 people, or 1.9%. The population has thinned by an average 1.3% a year over five years, slower than 97% of areas nationally. That puts 2,343 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 Deepdene (Vic.) is estimated to have a population of approximately 2,062, according to AreaSearch's evaluation of broader regional ABS updates alongside newly validated post-Census addresses. This count indicates a contraction of 39 people (1.9%) relative to the 2021 Census tally of 2,101 people. AreaSearch established this trend by referencing the resident total of 2,061 from the ABS June 2025 ERP release, combined with 1 validated new address logged post-Census. With a resulting population density of 2,343 persons per square kilometer, the suburb places in the upper quartile across locations evaluated nationally by AreaSearch.
In recent times, population gains were driven almost entirely by overseas migration, serving as virtually the single source of growth for the locality. For SA2-level demographic modelling, AreaSearch incorporates ABS/Geoscience Australia projections published in 2024 using 2022 as the base year, while applying VIC State Government Regional/LGA figures from 2023 via weighted aggregation where SA2 coverage is absent. These aggregated age-bracket growth trajectories are further utilized across all locations for the period covering 2032 to 2041. Looking forward, the suburb of Deepdene (Vic.) is projected to experience population expansion slightly below the national statistical median, adding 252 persons by 2041 under aggregated SA2 projections to register an overall gain of 12.2% across the 16 years.

Building approval figures compiled by AreaSearch from ABS statistical area data show that Deepdene has maintained an average approval pace of approximately 15 new dwellings per year, totaling an estimated 76 homes over the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, with no approvals recorded to date in FY-25. Amid recent population contraction, this development volume has provided sufficient residential pipeline to benefit prospective purchasers. Furthermore, commercial approvals totaling $2.9 million were registered this financial year, underscoring the predominantly residential focus of the local urban environment. Per capita residential development in Deepdene over the 5 year period tracked 38.0% above the regional average for Greater Melbourne, sustaining local asset values while expanding choices for purchasers, even as construction momentum has moderated in recent periods.
Detached residences represented 53.0% of recent approvals alongside 47.0% in attached formats, reflecting an increasing variety of medium-density residential options spanning conventional family houses to accessible, compact dwellings. Long-range demographic projections indicate that Deepdene is set to expand by 251 residents leading up to 2041, measured from the latest quarterly AreaSearch estimate. Existing construction rates suggest that residential pipeline will comfortably satisfy buyer demand, maintaining a supportive purchasing climate while accommodating potential growth above current projections.

1,018 residents of Deepdene (Vic.) are employed, from a labour force of 1,048. Unemployment sits at 2.9%, with participation at 58.9%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.4% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Deepdene features a highly qualified labor force characterized by substantial professional services employment, an unemployment rate of only 2.9%, and resilient labor market conditions over the previous year according to AreaSearch aggregated data. As of March 2026, employed residents total 1,018, with local unemployment sitting 1.9% below the 4.8% benchmark of Greater Melbourne, while the participation rate of 58.9% trails the broader metropolitan figure of 70.1%. Furthermore, 44.5% of working residents reported working remotely in Census returns, though pandemic lockdown circumstances during that period must be noted. The primary employment sectors among local workers comprise health care & social assistance, professional & technical, and education & training.
Professional & technical industries demonstrate particular prominence, capturing an employment share 1.5 times the metropolitan norm, whereas construction represents just 4.7% of resident employment compared to 9.7% across the wider region. In addition, Census ratios comparing working residents to locally situated positions suggest significant outward commuting for employment. According to AreaSearch analysis of ABS and SALM records across statistical regions, the year to March 2026 saw Deepdene's employed count edge up by 0.1% alongside a 1.0% expansion in the labor force, resulting in a 0.8 percentage point uptick in the unemployment rate. Over the identical timeframe, Greater Melbourne saw employment and labor force metrics grow by 2.1% and 2.3% respectively, with unemployment rising by 0.2 percentage points. Drawing on Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment projections from Mar-26, national employment is expected to grow by 6.6% across five years and 13.7% over ten years. Mapping these industry-specific national trends onto the local workforce distribution implies potential employment gains for Deepdene of 7.4% over five years and 14.9% over ten years (calculated as an illustrative weighting exercise without incorporating local demographic 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 — 1 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,101 at the 2021 Census → 2,062 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 (SAL20728). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
