Sales Detail
Hackett has an estimated 3,355 residents, up from 3,227 at the 2021 Census — a change of 128 people, or 4.0%. Growth has averaged 0.9% a year over five years. That puts 1,721 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 AreaSearch's evaluation of broader ABS demographic releases alongside post-Census address validations, the suburb of Hackett has an estimated population of approximately 3,355 as of Aug 2026. This represents a gain of 128 people (4.0%) compared to the 3,227 people recorded in the 2021 Census. Such figures are derived from an estimated 3,345 residents identified via the ABS ERP figures from June 2025 in combination with 13 validated new addresses confirmed following the Census. Consequently, the local density stands at 1,720 persons per square kilometer, tracking higher than the nationwide benchmark analyzed by AreaSearch.
Inbound international migration served as the core driver of recent demographic expansion, accounting for roughly 83.0% of total population additions. Projections utilize the 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia data series pegged to a 2022 baseline for local SA2 territories, supplemented by ACT Government cohort projections (also using a 2022 base) for post-2032 timelines and areas omitted from the primary model. Looking ahead, these models project a net reduction in the suburb of Hackett's overall headcount, tapering by 12 persons by 2041. Despite this top-line contraction, certain segments are set to expand, most prominently the 65 to 74 demographic, which is forecasted to increase by 72 people. <i>See the age section for more details.</i>
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
61 new dwellings have been approved in Hackett over the past five years, an average of 12 a year. That is 3.7 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 3, 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 localized ABS building consent metrics analyzed by AreaSearch, residential approvals in Hackett have averaged roughly 12 dwellings per year, totaling approximately 61 homes across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 3 recorded so far in FY-25. Across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), roughly 2.5 new residents were added for every home constructed, underscoring resilient housing demand that underpins local valuations. Approved dwellings carry an average construction value of $251,000—under the regional standard—pointing to relatively attainable building activity. Non-residential development remains minimal, with commercial approvals totaling $144,000 this financial year, reinforcing the district's predominantly residential character.
Per-capita residential construction in Hackett sits 74.0% below regional average per person compared to the wider Australian Capital Territory. This subdued building pipeline typically bolsters values and interest for established residences. The composition of recent dwelling approvals includes 58.0% detached dwellings alongside 42.0% medium and high-density housing, delivering a broader selection of medium-density stock that ranges from compact, budget-friendly properties to traditional detached layouts. This profile marks a notable pivot from the current housing stock (where detached houses comprise 76.0% houses), driven by limited land availability alongside emerging lifestyle and affordability considerations. With approximately 277 people per dwelling approval, the area continues to exhibit low-density characteristics. Given that demographic forecasts indicate stagnant or declining resident numbers, prospective home buyers in Hackett may benefit from easing pressure on local housing demand.

1,779 residents of Hackett are employed, from a labour force of 1,850. Unemployment sits at 3.8%, with participation at 66.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,560, about 76% 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
Local workforce figures compiled by AreaSearch show that Hackett maintains a highly qualified labor pool with a prominent professional services footprint, a low jobless rate of 3.8%, and annual job growth of 1.2%. Employed locals numbered 1,779 as of March 2026, while the jobless rate tracked 0.2% below Australian Capital Territory's 4.1% figure. Labor force participation registered at 66.6% compared to Australian Capital Territory's 70.6%. Furthermore, 15.5% of working residents reported operating from home during the Census, although broader Covid-19 health restrictions during that period may have influenced this proportion.
Resident employment centers heavily on public administration & safety, education & training, and professional & technical disciplines. In contrast, health care & social assistance accounts for a smaller share at 8.6%, below the 11.7% observed across the wider region. Comparing local place-of-work Census tallies against resident counts highlights that internal employment opportunities within this residential suburb remain sparse. Over the year ending March 2026, AreaSearch evaluation of ABS and SALM series indicates that local employment expanded by 1.2% while the workforce rose by 1.3%, nudging the jobless rate upward by 0.1 percentage points. By comparison, Australian Capital Territory recorded a 0.3% rise in employment and a 1.1% gain in the total labor pool, resulting in a 0.7 percentage point increase in unemployment. Applying Jobs and Skills Australia's Mar-26 industry projections to the local occupational baseline provides insight into possible labor demand trajectories. Against nationwide job growth estimates of 6.6% across five years and 13.7% over a decade, applying these industry weightings to Hackett suggests potential local employment expansion of 6.3% over five years and 13.0% over ten years (representing an illustrative weighting model that excludes localized 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 — 13 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,227 at the 2021 Census → 3,355 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.
