Sales Detail
Hebersham has an estimated 5,689 residents, up from 5,643 at the 2021 Census. That puts 3,386 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 population revisions alongside newly confirmed post-Census addresses, the suburb of Hebersham has an estimated headcount of roughly 5,689 as of Aug 2026. This indicates an expansion of 46 people (0.8%) compared to the 2021 Census tally of 5,643 people. Such progress is derived from a resident count of 5,677 calculated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 ERP release, combined with 32 validated new addresses recorded post-Census. With 3,386 persons per square kilometer, the suburb of Hebersham sits in the top quartile for population density nationwide in AreaSearch benchmarks.
Furthermore, the suburb of Hebersham trailed the wider SA3 area (3.7%) by 2.9 percentage points in post-census growth (0.8%), indicating sound local fundamentals. Recent demographic increases were predominantly supported by natural growth, which comprised approximately 55.00000000000001% of all net additions. AreaSearch incorporates ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2-level demographic projections published in 2024 (taking 2022 as baseline), turning to NSW State Government SA2 figures released in 2022 (with a 2021 baseline) for any unlisted localities. Age-bracket expansion paths from these sources are projected forward across all territories between 2032 and 2041. In line with broader structural patterns, the suburb of Hebersham is slated for bottom-quartile growth nationally, with aggregated SA2 estimates pointing to an increase of 138 persons by 2041, representing an overall expansion of 2.2% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
108 new dwellings have been approved in Hebersham over the past five years, an average of 21 a year. That is 3.4 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 8, 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
AreaSearch's review of statistical-area building approvals shows that the local market averages approximately 21 residential approvals per year. This amounts to roughly 108 approved dwellings across the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, alongside 8 approvals to date in FY-25. Following recent population declines, construction levels remain comparatively sufficient, offering advantageous conditions for purchasers. Furthermore, typical construction costs sit at $234,000 per dwelling, coming in below broader regional standards and offering relatively accessible entry points. A total of $9.2 million in commercial building approvals occurred during the current financial year, underlining the largely residential profile of the district.
Compared with Greater Sydney, local residential building volume per capita is moderately stronger, tracking 22.0% above regional levels across the 5 year period to support buyer availability alongside established home values, even as recent activity has tapered. Volumes remain lower than national rates, illustrating market maturation and potential site restrictions. Freehold separate houses represent 89.0% of recent construction while medium and high-density formats make up 11.0%, maintaining an established suburban environment oriented toward detached family housing. Averaging around 756 people per approved residential dwelling, the local property landscape displays distinct maturity. Based on the most recent quarterly calculation from AreaSearch, the local population is projected to gain 126 residents by 2041. Provided current building momentum continues, residential additions should readily satisfy incoming requirements, sustaining favourable purchasing dynamics and potentially unlocking growth beyond baseline projections.

2,072 residents of Hebersham are employed, from a labour force of 2,497. Unemployment sits at 17.0%, with participation at 57.9%. 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 4,546, 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
The local labour market maintains an even distribution of blue and white collar positions across a diverse mix of industries, accompanied by an unemployment rate of 17.0% and annual job growth of 2.5% per AreaSearch statistical aggregations. By March 2026, employed locals numbered 2,072. Joblessness stands 12.9% above the Greater Sydney benchmark of 4.1%, signaling substantial capacity for improvement, while the participation rate of 57.9% sits noticeably behind the metropolitan level of 68.9%. Census records indicate that 17.0% of workers operated from home, though period-specific Covid-19 restrictions should be noted.
Key fields of employment among residents comprise health care & social assistance, transport, postal & warehousing, as well as manufacturing. Local workforce concentration in transport, postal & warehousing is particularly prominent, reaching 2.3 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical roles are underrepresented, engaging only 2.6% of local workers relative to 11.5% throughout Greater Sydney. Comparing the Census tally of daytime workers to resident employees indicates that this largely residential setting provides comparatively few local workplace opportunities. AreaSearch examination of ABS and SALM statistical area figures shows that during the 12 months leading to March 2026, employment expanded by 2.5% against a 1.1% increase in the labour force, resulting in a 1.2 percentage points decrease in the jobless rate. Over the same timeframe, Greater Sydney recorded identical 1.9% gains across both employment and the labour force alongside a slight jobless reduction. National projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide additional context regarding future employment trends. Projected forward against local industry distributions over five and ten-year horizons, overall national employment is forecast to climb 6.6% across five years and 13.7% over ten years, albeit with wide sectoral differences. Applying these parameters proportionally suggests local employment could grow by 6.0% across five years and 13.0% over ten years (note that this model represents a weighted projection for illustrative purposes and omits localised demographic estimates).

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 — 32 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (5,643 at the 2021 Census → 5,689 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 (SAL11893). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
