Detail
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Dunsborough has an estimated population of approximately 7,821, derived from AreaSearch evaluation of broader ABS population updates alongside new addresses verified since the Census. When compared to the 6,413 people recorded in the 2021 Census, this represents an addition of 1,408 people (22.0%). This figure stems from a resident population benchmark of 7,716 calculated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 ERP release, combined with 408 validated new addresses added post-Census. Population density stands at 486 persons per square kilometer, indicating generous personal space and scope for future expansion.
Outperforming both the Rest of WA and the national average (9.5%), the suburb of Dunsborough's 22.0% post-2021 expansion positions it as a key regional growth hub. The primary growth engine was interstate migration, contributing around 63.0% of recent population additions, with natural growth and overseas migration also delivering positive gains. Population projections produced by ABS/Geoscience Australia (issued in 2024 with a 2022 baseline) are applied by AreaSearch across individual SA2 areas. Where SA2 coverage is unavailable, and across all locations for timeframes beyond 2032, cohort-based growth rates from the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023 from 2022 data) are incorporated. Looking forward, the suburb of Dunsborough is forecast to register expansion outpacing the regional Australian median, with combined SA2-level figures projecting a gain of 1,494 persons to 2041, which equates to a cumulative increase of 17.8% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
553 new dwellings have been approved in Dunsborough over the past five years, an average of 110 a year. That places the area in the 94th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 14 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 88 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 90% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 78, 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
Dwelling approvals in Dunsborough have tracked at an annual average of roughly 110 homes based on AreaSearch assessment of ABS building approvals across statistical areas, generating an estimated 553 new dwellings over the last 5 financial years. In FY-25 to date, 78 approvals have been registered. With an average intake of 3.3 new residents annually for each home built over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), construction continues to trail population demand, exerting upward momentum on property pricing and intensifying purchaser competition; concurrent expected construction costs for new dwellings average $887,000, underscoring building activity weighted toward high-end residential stock.
Commercial planning is also progressing steadily, with $27.8 million in commercial development approvals recorded this financial year. Per-capita development activity in Dunsborough aligns closely with the Rest of WA, maintaining steady supply-demand dynamics relative to the wider regional territory. This volume exceeds the national benchmark, demonstrating robust building sector confidence. Detached houses account for 90.0% of new residential development approvals against 10.0% for attached dwellings, sustaining the neighborhood's low-density profile and attracting buyers seeking standalone living spaces. Registering roughly 82 people per dwelling approval, Dunsborough reflects the structural hallmarks of an active growth corridor. According to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly projection, Dunsborough is slated to add 1,389 residents through to 2041. Assuming prevailing construction rates persist, upcoming residential building activity is positioned to comfortably accommodate incoming demand, creating favorable market conditions for purchasers and potentially facilitating population expansion beyond existing forecasts.

4,299 residents of Dunsborough are employed, from a labour force of 4,348. Unemployment sits at 1.1%, with participation at 70.4%. 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, so in an area growing as fast as this one it understates the likely rise in local jobs. The working-day population is estimated at 5,880, about 75% 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
Dunsborough's workforce is characterized by high educational attainment and prominent representation across hospitality and tourism sectors, alongside a low unemployment rate of 1.1% and estimated twelve-month job growth of 1.3% according to AreaSearch statistical area datasets. As of March 2026, 4,299 residents are employed, local unemployment sits 2.4% beneath the Regional WA mark of 3.5%, and labor force participation stands at 70.4% versus 65.4% across Regional WA. Census records indicate that 14.6% of workers worked from home, a metric influenced by prevailing Covid-19 restrictions. Key industries employing local residents comprise accommodation & food, construction, and health care & social assistance.
The local employment profile shows intense concentration in accommodation & food, where workforce share is 2.2 times the regional benchmark. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 1.7% of local employment compared with a 9.3% regional average. The area operates primarily as a residential community with relatively constrained internal commercial employment, as evidenced by comparing the Census working population against resident workforce totals. In the year to March 2026, AreaSearch evaluation of ABS and SALM data reveals that local employment grew by 1.3% alongside a 1.4% expansion in the labor force, maintaining an even unemployment rate. This performance compares favorably to Regional WA, which experienced an employment decline of 0.1%, labor force expansion of 0.3%, and an increase in unemployment of 0.4 percentage points. Long-range outlooks can be derived from Jobs and Skills Australia national projections issued in Mar-26 across five- and ten-year horizons. Nationally, overall jobs are projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with performance varying by sector. When applied to Dunsborough's industry structure via basic weighting extrapolation (excluding local population projections), local employment is projected to expand by 5.9% across five years and 12.5% across ten years.

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 — 408 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (6,413 at the 2021 Census → 7,821 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.
