Sales Detail
Kahibah has an estimated 2,620 residents. That puts 2,382 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
Demographic assessments by AreaSearch incorporating broader ABS updates and post-Census address validations place the resident count of the suburb of Kahibah at approximately 2,620 as of Aug 2026. This represents an addition of 17 people (0.7%) relative to the 2021 Census tally of 2,603 people. The calculation stems from an estimated resident population of 2,608 following the ABS release of June 2025 ERP data, alongside 19 validated new addresses confirmed after the Census. Consequently, the suburb of Kahibah exhibits a population density of 2,381 persons per square kilometer, positioning it in the upper quartile nationally across AreaSearch benchmarks.
The 0.7% post-census expansion tracks within 2.6 percentage points of the broader SA3 area rate of 3.3%, indicating sound growth momentum. The primary catalyst for demographic expansion has been natural increase, which generated around 51.0% of recent population additions. Projections for the suburb of Kahibah utilize 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia models pegged to a 2022 baseline for each SA2, supplemented where necessary by 2022 NSW State Government SA2 datasets using a 2021 base year, with age cohort trajectories applied from 2032 to 2041. Over the 16 years running to 2041, aggregated SA2 estimates anticipate the local population will expand by 272 persons, equating to an overall rise of 9.9%. This prospective rate of expansion sits just beneath the median observed across regional Australia.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
56 new dwellings have been approved in Kahibah over the past five years, an average of 11 a year. That is 0.8 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 4, 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
Annual residential approvals in Kahibah average roughly 11 dwellings according to AreaSearch analysis of ABS statistical area allocations, accumulating to an estimated 56 homes across the previous 5 financial years. Within FY-25 to date, 4 approvals have been logged. While local headcounts experienced recent contractions, development volumes have remained comparatively balanced for purchasing opportunities, with new dwellings recording an average expected construction cost of $548,000—a level modestly above the regional norm that reflects an emphasis on premium residential projects. New residential construction activity in Kahibah tracks significantly below regional patterns, registering 78.0% below the per-person average for Rest of NSW.
While building volumes have gained pace in recent periods, this prevailing supply constraint supports underlying values and demand for existing stock, whilst pointing toward broader market maturity and site availability limits relative to national benchmarks. Recent approvals reflect an evolving urban footprint, with standalone houses representing 33.0% and medium to high-density dwellings comprising 67.0%. This contrasts with the established profile of 74.0% houses, catering to downsizers, newcomers, and investors navigating affordability and modern lifestyle preferences. An established residential market is further underscored by a density of approximately 871 people per dwelling approval. According to the latest quarterly estimates from AreaSearch, demographic projections forecast that Kahibah will add 260 residents through to 2041. Existing rates of residential building activity appear positioned to satisfy future dwelling demand, establishing accommodating buyer conditions while providing the capacity to sustain growth beyond baseline expectations.

1,361 residents of Kahibah are employed, from a labour force of 1,414. Unemployment sits at 3.7%, with participation at 68.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.1% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,143, about 82% 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
Labour force metrics compiled by AreaSearch indicate that Kahibah maintains a highly skilled workforce with significant representation across essential services sectors and a low jobless rate of 3.7%. As of March 2026, employed residents total 1,361, while unemployment sits 0.4% below the 4.1% recorded for Regional NSW. Workforce engagement remains particularly robust, registering a participation rate of 68.0% against 60.6% across Regional NSW. Furthermore, Census responses revealed that 29.3% of workers operated from home, though this figure was influenced by Covid-19 health restrictions. Local employment is predominantly concentrated across health care & social assistance, education & training, and construction.
Specialisation is especially pronounced in health care & social assistance, where local participation reaches 1.3 times the regional standard. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 0.2% of the local working population, well below the 5.3% observed in Regional NSW. A comparison of resident workers to local job numbers highlights the area's largely residential makeup, offering constrained employment within the immediate boundary. AreaSearch evaluations of ABS and SALM figures across broader statistical areas show that over the 12 months to March 2026, local labour force participation dropped by 1.6% alongside a 3.0% contraction in employment, resulting in a 1.3 percentage points rise in the unemployment rate. In comparison, Regional NSW recorded an employment decrease of 0.9%, a workforce reduction of 0.4%, and an unemployment increase of 0.5 percentage points. Broader demand indications stem from Jobs and Skills Australia projections dated Mar-26, which anticipate nationwide job growth of 6.6% across five years and 13.7% across ten years, though industry variations remain substantial. Extrapolating these sectoral forecasts across Kahibah's workforce mix indicates potential employment growth of 7.1% over five years and 14.7% over ten years, serving as an illustrative weighted baseline that excludes local population shifts.

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 — 19 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,603 at the 2021 Census → 2,620 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.
