Sales Detail
Kaleen has an estimated 7,781 residents, up from 7,672 at the 2021 Census — a change of 109 people, or 1.4%. That puts 1,290 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 evaluations combining broader Australian Bureau of Statistics regional revisions with new post-Census address validations, the suburb of Kaleen records an estimated population of around 7,781 as of Aug 2026. This equates to an addition of 109 people (1.4%) relative to the 7,672 people counted in the 2021 Census. Such movement stems from an estimated resident base of 7,776 calculated via the ABS ERP release from June 2025 alongside 17 validated new addresses identified following the Census. In terms of land use, this population level creates a density of 1,290 persons per square kilometer, outperforming the benchmark across nationwide locations examined by AreaSearch.
Furthermore, the 1.4% expansion recorded since the census trails the wider SA3 area (4.2%) by only 2.8 percentage points, highlighting solid local momentum. Inbound international migration served as the primary growth engine, delivering approximately 76.0% of total demographic additions over recent intervals. Population modelling incorporates 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area using 2022 as a starting point, supplemented beyond 2032 and across uncovered SA2 areas by ACT Government cohort estimates that also use a 2022 baseline. Under this framework, future demographic trends for the suburb of Kaleen point toward a downward trajectory, contracting by 570 persons by 2041. Conversely, selective expansion remains anticipated across certain demographics, most prominently among residents in the 85 and over age group, which is slated to increase by 161 people.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
107 new dwellings have been approved in Kaleen over the past five years, an average of 21 a year. That places the area in the 55th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 3 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 36 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 39% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 105, running ahead of 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
ABS residential building permit data collated by AreaSearch indicates that the local pipeline averages roughly 21 dwellings annually, totaling approximately 107 homes approved over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) as well as 105 so far in FY-25. With additions tracking at only 0.9 new residents per year per dwelling constructed over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), supply is keeping pace with or exceeding local requirements, broadening choices for purchasers and supporting capacity for higher-than-projected population expansion. Concurrently, average construction values stand at $733,000, underscoring a strong orientation by builders toward upscale, high-value projects, while approved non-residential work comprises $4.5 million this financial year, pointing to modest commercial investment.
Relative to Australian Capital Territory benchmarks, residential building volumes per capita stand at approximately 75%, placing the district within the 81st percentile across the nation, supported by an acceleration in recent construction. Current approvals consist of 39.0% standalone homes alongside 61.0% attached dwellings. This transition toward higher-density formats provides more attainable price points for newcomers, downsizers, and property investors. It also marks a visible departure from the established stock profile of 91.0% houses, reflecting land constraints for greenfield development along with evolving lifestyle preferences for varied, cost-effective options. With roughly 120 people per approval, overall development retains a low-density character. Given that demographic forecasts indicate stagnant or declining headcount, residential demand pressures are poised to soften, creating favorable conditions for prospective property buyers.

Development application DA202443501 was lodged in January 2025 and amended in February 2025; the Territory Planning Authority issued pre-determination advice in August 2025.As of early 2026, the Planning Minister flagged the proposed indoor recreation facility does not meet Territory Plan requirements, and the application remains under assessment.
Kaleen Digital Infrastructure Upgrade
Program delivering full-fibre (FTTP) upgrade eligibility for Kaleen under NBN Co's national fibre program, plus ongoing 5G mobile network enhancements by major carriers. Kaleen is listed by NBN Co for full-fibre eligibility by 2025, with progressive construction and service activation occurring as orders are placed with retail providers.
3,905 residents of Kaleen are employed, from a labour force of 4,117. Unemployment sits at 5.1%, with participation at 63.8%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.4% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 6,229, 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
AreaSearch data aggregations highlight a qualified local labor pool centered heavily around essential service disciplines, paired with an unemployment rate of 5.1% and steady overall workforce metrics over the preceding twelve months. As of March 2026, employed residents total 3,905, though the local jobless rate sits 1.1% above the 4.1% recorded for Australian Capital Territory, alongside a lower participation rate of 63.8% versus the territory-wide 70.6%. Census figures further show that 12.2% of workers operated from home, a metric subject to pandemic-era conditions. Local resident employment is concentrated within public administration & safety, professional & technical, and education & training disciplines.
Construction employment is particularly prominent, tracking at 1.3 times the regional average. Conversely, public administration & safety captures a smaller share locally at 26.2% of workers relative to 30.4% across Australian Capital Territory. Comparison between Census-reported local job counts and working residents reveals a predominantly suburban dormitory setting with limited commercial employment within its boundaries. Over the 12 months to March 2026, analysis of ABS and SALM metrics demonstrates an employment increase of 0.1% against a 1.0% rise in the active labor pool, driving a 0.9 percentage points increase in the jobless rate. In comparison, Australian Capital Territory saw employment expand by 0.3%, the labor supply grow by 1.1%, and unemployment climb by 0.7 percentage points. Looking ahead, Jobs and Skills Australia projections from Mar-26 outline national employment growth expectations of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with distinct variance across individual industries. Weighting these projections against the existing occupational structure implies localized job increases of 6.4% over five years and 13.1% over ten years, representing a baseline illustrative model that excludes specific local demographic trends.

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 — 17 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (7,672 at the 2021 Census → 7,781 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 (SAL80081). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
