Detail
According to AreaSearch's evaluation of broader regional ABS demographic figures alongside post-Census validated address counts, the suburb of Geographe has an estimated count of approximately 3,995 residents as of Aug 2026. Compared to the 3,622 residents recorded in the 2021 Census, this represents an expansion of 373 people (10.3%). This update is derived from an Estimated Resident Population baseline of 3,951 calculated following the ABS June 2025 ERP release, combined with 219 validated new addresses confirmed after the Census benchmark. Geographe's population density stands at 699 persons per square kilometer, aligning closely with typical AreaSearch regional benchmarks.
Expanding by 10.3% since the 2021 census, the suburb of Geographe outpaced the 9.5% nationwide benchmark to establish itself as a regional growth hotspot. Net overseas migration served as the principal catalyst, supplying roughly 35.0% of recent population additions, while natural increase and interstate arrivals also delivered positive net contributions. Demographic modeling incorporates the 2024 ABS and Geoscience Australia SA2-level population projections, which adopt 2022 as their base year. For unmapped locations and long-term forecasts past 2032, calculations apply age-bracket growth trajectories published in the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region series (utilising 2022 data). Long-range demographic projections indicate that regional population expansion across Australia will exceed median levels, with the suburb of Geographe anticipated to gain 436 persons by 2041 across aggregated SA2 data, translating to cumulative growth of 9.8% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
263 new dwellings have been approved in Geographe over the past five years, an average of 52 a year. That places the area in the 70th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 13 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 37 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 97% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 40, 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
Statistical building approval data from the ABS evaluated by AreaSearch indicates that building permits in Geographe have averaged roughly 52 dwellings per annum, amounting to approximately 263 residential approvals across the preceding 5 financial years. Within FY-25 to date, 40 residential permits have been logged. Between FY-21 and FY-25, new resident arrivals averaged 1.7 persons annually for each approved dwelling, pointing to well-balanced supply-demand fundamentals and an orderly residential market. Furthermore, residential approvals reflect an average expected construction cost of $621,000, underscoring developer emphasis on premium, higher-end builds. Non-residential development is also active, with $15.1 million worth of commercial permits authorized during the current financial year.
On a per-capita basis, building activity in Geographe trails the Rest of WA by 19.0%, yet sits in the 90th percentile of evaluated locations nationally following a recent surge in building permits. The local construction profile is heavily weighted toward standalone houses, which constitute 97.0% of approvals compared to 3.0% for townhouses and apartments, preserving the low-density landscape and catering to purchasers seeking generous space. Approvals currently track at roughly 73 people per dwelling approval, highlighting an expanding construction pipeline. Latest quarterly projections from AreaSearch indicate Geographe will add 392 residents by 2041. Considering the prevailing pace of property construction, residential building activity appears positioned to satisfy incoming buyer demand, supporting favorable market conditions and creating potential capacity for population increases above current estimates.

1,917 residents of Geographe are employed, from a labour force of 1,988. Unemployment sits at 3.6%, with participation at 58.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.0% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 3,165, about 79% 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
Workforce data aggregated by AreaSearch reveals a capable local labour pool with pronounced concentrations in industrial and manufacturing trades, accompanied by a low unemployment rate of 3.6% and consistent job market stability across the preceding twelve months. As of March 2026, employed residents numbered 1,917, while the local jobless rate mirrors Regional WA's 3.5%. However, labour force engagement remains subdued, with a 58.6% participation rate trailing the 65.4% recorded across Regional WA. Only 7.9% of local workers reported working from home at the Census, though broader Covid-19 restrictions at the time may have influenced these figures.
Health care & social assistance, retail trade, and accommodation & food represent the largest employing sectors among the local workforce. Specialisation is particularly elevated in accommodation & food, where the local employment proportion stands at 1.6 times the regional benchmark. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 2.7% of local employment relative to 9.3% regionally. Comparing Census workplace counts against resident numbers indicates that local employment opportunities remain relatively constrained within this largely residential precinct. AreaSearch analysis of ABS and SALM regional datasets shows that over the past 12-month period, both employment and the labour force increased by 0.2%, leaving the local unemployment rate virtually unchanged. In contrast, Regional WA saw employment decline by 0.1%, the workforce expand by 0.3%, and unemployment climb by 0.4 percentage points. Forward-looking labour projections from Jobs and Skills Australia (Mar-26) offer guidance on future job trends in Geographe across five- and ten-year horizons. Nationally, employment is projected to expand by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though trajectories diverge by sector. Applying these national industry benchmarks to Geographe's current industry composition indicates potential local employment gains of 6.0% over five years and 12.7% over ten years (representing a baseline industry weighting that excludes local population adjustments).

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 — 219 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,622 at the 2021 Census → 3,995 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 (SAL50534). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
