Sales Detail
Eastwood (Vic.) has an estimated 2,742 residents, down from 2,855 at the 2021 Census — a change of 113 people, or 4.0%. The population has thinned by an average 0.8% a year over five years, slower than 99% of areas nationally. That puts 1,143 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
Following evaluations of ABS population adjustments for the wider region, alongside updated addresses verified by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Eastwood (Vic.) has a projected population of approximately 2,742 as of May 2026. This indicates a contraction of 113 residents (4.0%) compared to the 2,855 individuals recorded during the 2021 Census. This adjustment is derived from the resident population figure of 2,742, which AreaSearch estimated using the latest ABS ERP data release (June 2025) in combination with 9 validated new addresses registered since the Census. Such a population size results in a density of 1,142 persons per square kilometer, which aligns closely with the typical averages observed in other regions analyzed by AreaSearch.
In recent times, population gains were mostly driven by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 54.0% of the total growth. AreaSearch incorporates projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for individual SA2 regions, which were published in 2024 using 2022 as the baseline year. For any SA2 regions lacking this coverage, AreaSearch utilizes the 2023 Regional/LGA projections from the VIC State Government, adjusting them through a weighted aggregation of population growth from LGA to SA2 levels. Projected growth rates categorized by age brackets from these aggregations are also applied across all regions for the period from 2032 to 2041. Looking at future demographic shifts, a substantial rise in population is predicted for the top quartile of regional locations in Australia, with the suburb of Eastwood (Vic.) projected to expand by 948 residents by 2041 based on aggregated SA2-level forecasts, representing an overall increase of 34.6% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
34 new dwellings have been approved in Eastwood (Vic.) over the past five years, an average of 6 a year. That is 2.4 approvals per 1,000 residents. Few approvals have been recorded in the most recent months, well below the longer-run average; the latest ABS periods are still being reported. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this Suburb (SAL) boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
According to an AreaSearch evaluation of ABS building approvals distributed from statistical area statistics, Eastwood averages approximately 6 approved residential properties annually, with a total of 34 dwellings approved over the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25) and none recorded for FY-26 so far. Because the region has seen its population shrink, the supply of housing has remained sufficient to meet demand, leading to a balanced market environment with plenty of options for buyers. Additionally, commercial approvals reached $3.6 million this financial year, pointing to the predominantly residential nature of the locality.
In comparison to the Rest of Vic., Eastwood shows a marked deficit in construction activity (72.0% lower than the regional average per capita). This restricted pace of new builds generally bolsters demand and supports valuations for existing properties. The level of activity is also below the national average, highlighting the mature state of the local market and suggesting potential planning restrictions. Furthermore, recent construction has consisted entirely of standalone dwellings, maintaining the suburban character of the neighborhood with a focus on detached homes that appeal to buyers looking for space. Looking forward, Eastwood is projected to add 948 residents by 2041 (starting from the most recent quarterly estimate by AreaSearch). If current construction volumes remain unchanged, the supply of homes could fall behind population growth, which would likely increase competition among buyers and support rising property values.

1,143 residents of Eastwood (Vic.) are employed, from a labour force of 1,193. Unemployment sits at 4.2%, with participation at 52.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.4% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,199, about 80% 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
Eastwood maintains a balanced labor market that includes both white-collar and blue-collar roles, with a strong presence in essential services, an unemployment rate of 4.2%, and an estimated job growth rate of 2.9% over the past year, according to AreaSearch aggregations of statistical area data. In March 2026, there were 1,143 residents employed, while the local unemployment rate stood at 0.5% higher than the Regional Vic. average of 3.7%, and the participation rate was considerably lower (52.4% relative to 61.1% in Regional Vic.). Census data showed that a minor 10.2% of residents worked from home, though the influence of Covid-19 lockdowns should be taken into account.
The major sectors of employment for local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction. The community displays a notable concentration in retail trade, where the employment proportion is 1.3 times the regional average. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing is under-represented, employing only 2.8% of the local workforce compared to 7.5% across Regional Vic. This mainly residential suburb appears to offer few local jobs, as shown by the comparison of the Census working population against the resident population. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics compiled from broader statistical areas, during the 12 months ending March 2026, employment expanded by 2.9% while the labor force grew by 1.8%, leading to a 1.0 percentage point reduction in the unemployment rate. This contrasts with Regional Vic., where employment declined by 0.1%, the labor force shrank by 0.3%, and unemployment decreased by 0.2 percentage points. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from May-25 offer additional context on future demand trends in Eastwood. These projections, spanning five and ten-year horizons, have been matched with local employment data to estimate future trends. While national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates vary widely by industry. Applying these industry projections to the local employment structure suggests that local employment will grow by 6.4% over five years and 13.5% over ten years (note that this is a basic weighted extrapolation for demonstration purposes 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 — 9 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (2,855 at the 2021 Census → 2,742 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 (SAL20836). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
