Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Dundas (NSW)

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

203 new dwellings have been approved in Dundas (NSW) over the past five years, an average of 40 a year. That is 9.5 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 47 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 15% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 53, 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

According to AreaSearch's review of ABS building approval figures allocated from statistical areas, Dundas maintains a steady rate of approximately 40 approved dwellings each year, amounting to roughly 203 homes across the previous 5 financial years. In FY-25 to date, 53 residential permits have been granted. Against a backdrop of population reduction, construction volume has remained comparatively solid, benefiting prospective purchasers, with typical expected construction costs running at $502,000 per new residence. Commercial development approvals during this financial year totalled $5.1 million, underscoring the area's predominantly residential character. Per capita residential approvals in Dundas track at approximately three-quarters of the Greater Sydney benchmark, positioning the locality in the 80th percentile across the country.

Medium and high-density developments make up 85.0% of new approvals, while detached houses account for 15.0%. This emphasis on higher-density stock offers accessible entry pricing that appeals to first-time buyers, investors, and downsizers. It also signals a marked shift away from the prevailing built environment (where standalone houses comprise 52.0%), reflecting tighter supplies of greenfield land alongside shifting lifestyle demands and affordability constraints. Generating approximately 124 people per approval, Dundas functions as a low density environment. Demographic projections indicate an expansion of 3,082 residents in Dundas by 2041, measured from the latest AreaSearch quarterly figures. If residential building activity stays at present rates, housing construction may not keep pace with demographic expansion, potentially heightening competition among purchasers and sustaining upward pressure on property values.

Over the same timeframe, Greater Sydney recorded a 1.9% gain in employment, a 1.9% rise in the labour pool, and a slight reduction in joblessness. Further direction is provided by Jobs and Skills Australia national projections from Mar-26, which model five and ten-year sectoral shifts against Dundas's workforce. Nationwide employment is anticipated to climb 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with performance differing across sectors. Applying this local industry distribution yields an estimated employment uplift for Dundas of 6.7% over five years and 13.8% over ten years (a basic weighted projection for modeling purposes that omits local demographic shifts).

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 — 49 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (4,959 at the 2021 Census → 4,911 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 (SAL11315). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.

Common questions about this page

How do Dundas (NSW) suburb boundaries differ from Statistical Areas?
This page uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries (suburb-style geography). SAL represents commonly-known suburb names used in addresses, while Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census/statistical reporting. Even when sharing the same name, SAL and SA2 boundaries often cover different geographic areas with different populations.
Where does the data on this Dundas (NSW) page come from?
AreaSearch compiles this page from official and industry sources — including ABS, Geoscience Australia, Valuer General, Provider directories, DEWR, JSA, State Transport Departments and ACARA — then aggregates them to the boundary shown and calculates the rankings, growth rates and benchmarks itself. Property sales come from the state valuation authority, rents from state rental bond lodgements, development applications from council and state planning portals, school data from ACARA, and public transport from state transport departments.
Is the Dundas (NSW) data on this page just from the 2021 Census?
No. Most of this page is maintained well beyond the Census. Sourced entirely from current releases: development & approvals (Aug 2026), property sales & rents (Oct 2026), infrastructure projects (Jul 2026) and services & amenities (Sep 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to Aug 2026), age profile (to Aug 2026), employment (to Mar 2026), income (to FY 2023), education (to Sep 2026), transport (to Jul 2026) and health (to 2024). Population and age cohorts in particular are re-based to the latest ABS Estimated Resident Population rather than left at 2021 counts. Only housing, households and cultural diversity remain wholly Census-based, because no more current small-area dataset exists for those measures.
