Sales Detail
Edensor Park has an estimated 10,223 residents, down from 10,279 at the 2021 Census. The population has thinned by an average 0.5% a year over five years, slower than 94% of areas nationally. That puts 3,298 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 evaluations of ABS demographic releases for the wider region, alongside updated addresses verified by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Edensor Park has an estimated population of 10,223 as of May 2026. This represents a reduction of 56 people (0.5%) relative to the 2021 Census, which documented a population of 10,279 people. The adjustment is calculated from a resident population of 10,213, calculated by AreaSearch using the most recent ABS ERP release (June 2025) plus an additional 14 verified new addresses since the Census date. This population size represents a density of 3,297 persons per square kilometer, placing the locality in the top quarter of all Australian areas analyzed by AreaSearch.
Although the suburb of Edensor Park experienced a 0.5% contraction since the census, the SA3 region recorded a 2.0% expansion, showing contrasting demographic trajectories. Growth in the region was mostly propelled by net overseas migration, which accounted for approximately 78.0% of all population additions during the latest timeframes. AreaSearch relies on SA2 projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024 with a 2022 baseline. For SA2 territories lacking this information, projections at the SA2 level from the NSW State Government released in 2022 with a 2021 baseline are substituted. Projected changes by age brackets from these databases are applied across all locations for the period spanning 2032 to 2041. Looking at future demographic shifts, population growth is projected to be slightly below the median of national statistical districts, with the suburb of Edensor Park projected to gain 439 residents by 2041 according to merged SA2 projections, representing an overall increase of 4.2% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
132 new dwellings have been approved in Edensor Park over the past five years, an average of 26 a year. That is 2.6 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 27 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 93% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 27, broadly in line with 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 AreaSearch research into building approvals from the ABS, mapped from regional statistical files, the suburb of Edensor Park has averaged approximately 26 residential building permits annually, summing to an estimated 132 homes over the last 5 financial years. Thus far in FY-26, 25 approvals have been registered. As population figures have contracted in recent times, new additions have likely matched demand, providing buyers with options, while new dwellings are being constructed at an average value of $305,000, which aligns with regional averages. In comparison to Greater Sydney, the suburb of Edensor Park registers roughly half the rate of new housing approvals per capita, sitting in the 42nd percentile of locations evaluated across the country, which indicates fewer choices for buyers and helps support demand for existing dwellings.
This building rate is also lower than the national benchmark, indicating a mature residential landscape and potential limits on development. Local building approvals consist of 93.0% detached homes and 7.0% attached dwellings, preserving the suburban character of the neighborhood through a focus on standalone residences that attract buyers looking for space. With approximately 392 residents per approval, the suburb of Edensor Park exhibits the traits of an established property market. Looking forward, the suburb of Edensor Park is projected to add 429 residents by 2041 (starting from the most recent quarterly estimate by AreaSearch). Judging by ongoing building trends, the supply of new housing is expected to easily satisfy demand, creating favorable buying conditions and potentially supporting population growth above current forecasts.

4,752 residents of Edensor Park are employed, from a labour force of 5,016. Unemployment sits at 5.3%, with participation at 58.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.1% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 8,251, about 81% 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 Edensor Park contains a skilled labor force, with strong representation in industrial and manufacturing fields, an unemployment rate of 5.3%, and an estimated employment expansion of 5.2% over the previous year, according to AreaSearch calculations of regional data. As of March 2026, there are 4,752 residents employed, while the local unemployment rate sits 1.1% above the Greater Sydney rate of 4.1%, and labor force participation is much lower (58.5% compared to 69.1% in Greater Sydney). Census returns show that a high 33.3% of workers operated from home, though this figure may reflect the influence of pandemic restrictions.
The primary employment fields for working residents are healthcare & social assistance, retail, and construction. The community shows a clear industrial concentration in manufacturing, with an employment share that is 1.8 times the regional benchmark. Conversely, the professional & technical sector has a minor footprint, accounting for 6.3% of jobs compared to 11.5% across the region. This mostly residential neighborhood appears to provide few local employment options, as shown by comparing the count of residents who work locally versus the total employed resident base. According to AreaSearch evaluations of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated from wider statistical districts, the 12-month timeframe saw jobs grow by 5.2% while the labor force expanded by 5.1%, bringing the unemployment rate down by 0.1 percentage points. In comparison, Greater Sydney saw employment rise by 1.9%, its workforce grow by 1.9%, and unemployment drop slightly. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia published in May-25 provide additional context for potential future labor needs in the suburb of Edensor Park. These projections, spanning five and ten-year horizons, have been applied to the local industry mix to estimate growth. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, trends vary widely across sectors. Applying these industry-specific projections to the local workforce composition suggests that employment for residents should grow by 6.1% over five years and 12.8% over ten years (note that this is a simple weighted calculation for demonstration purposes and does not incorporate local population projections).

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 — 14 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (10,279 at the 2021 Census → 10,223 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 (SAL11380). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
