DemographicsPopulation Growth in Fairview Park

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

Fairview Park has an estimated 3,821 residents, up from 3,792 at the 2021 Census. That puts 1,475 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 investigations of ABS demographic releases for the wider region, alongside newly validated addresses sourced by AreaSearch after the Census, the suburb of Fairview Park has an estimated residency of approximately 3,821 people as of May 2026. This represents an addition of 29 individuals (0.8%) from the 2021 Census, which documented a population of 3,792 people. This shift is calculated from a resident count of 3,818, projected by AreaSearch using the most recent ABS ERP release (June 2025) plus an extra 6 validated new addresses registered after the Census date.

Such a population size translates to a density of 1,475 persons per square kilometer, exceeding the typical ratio observed across Australian localities analyzed by AreaSearch. Demographic expansion within this territory was chiefly stimulated by natural increase, which accounted for roughly 67.0% of the overall population gains in recent times. AreaSearch implements ABS/Geoscience Australia demographic projections for each SA2 region, which were published in 2024 utilizing 2022 as the baseline. For SA2 territories excluded from this dataset, as well as for all years following 2032, regional/LGA demographic projections categorized by age bracket from the SA State Government, published in 2023 using 2021 records, are applied alongside adjustments derived from a weighted aggregation of population growth shifting from LGA to SA2 boundaries. Factoring in these anticipated demographic transitions, a population rise slightly under the national median is projected, with the suburb of Fairview Park expected to add 437 residents by 2041 under aggregated SA2 projections, representing an overall expansion of 11.4% over the 16 years.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Fairview Park

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

39 new dwellings have been approved in Fairview Park over the past five years, an average of 7 a year. That is 2.1 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 2, 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

Based on AreaSearch assessments of ABS building permits allocated from wider statistical divisions, the suburb of Fairview Park has averaged approximately 7 new residential approvals annually, translating to an estimated 39 homes over the last 5 financial years. Thus far during FY-26, 2 approvals have been registered. With an average of just 1 new resident per year moving in for each new dwelling constructed over the past 5 financial years (spanning FY-21 to FY-25), construction activity is keeping pace with or running ahead of local demand, giving purchasers broader choices and supporting population increases that may surpass current forecasts, while new residences carry an average building cost of $354,000—moderately higher than regional baselines—pointing to a focus on quality builds.

Commercial approvals reached $1.2 million this financial year, underscoring the area's predominantly residential character. Relative to Greater Adelaide, the suburb of Fairview Park displays significantly lower construction activity (57.0% below the regional average per capita). This constrained pipeline of new builds generally underpins stronger demand and values for pre-existing homes. This rate is also lower than the national average, reflecting a mature market environment and indicating possible development barriers. Recent residential projects consist of 83.0% detached houses and 17.0% semi-detached or attached options, preserving the classic local suburban environment centered on family residences that appeal to buyers desiring space. This demonstrates a clear departure from the suburb's current housing stock (which stands at 100.0% houses), signaling a dwindling supply of vacant residential land and mirroring changing buyer tastes and a demand for more diverse, cost-effective residential options. With approximately 7637 people for each approved permit, the suburb of Fairview Park presents as a mature, settled community. Looking forward, the suburb of Fairview Park is projected to add 434 residents by 2041 (calculated from the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimation). Should current building rates persist, residential supply might fall short of population gains, potentially intensifying buyer competition and driving stronger price appreciation.

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 — 6 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (3,792 at the 2021 Census → 3,821 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 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 (SAL40429). 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 Fairview Park 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 Fairview Park 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 Fairview Park 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 (Jun 2026), property sales & rents (Aug 2026), infrastructure projects (May 2026) and services & amenities (Jul 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to May 2026), age profile (to May 2026), employment (to Mar 2026), income (to FY 2023), education (to Aug 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.
