Sales Detail
Kearns has an estimated 2,678 residents. The population has thinned by an average 1.0% a year over five years, slower than 94% of areas nationally. That puts 1,135 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
Based on demographic evaluations from the ABS for the surrounding region, alongside new address validations compiled by AreaSearch after the Census, the suburb of Kearns is calculated to have approximately 2,678 inhabitants in May 2026. This represents a contraction of 15 people (0.6%) compared to the 2021 Census, which counted 2,693 individuals. This shift is derived from a local resident base of 2,634, calculated by AreaSearch using the ABS's June 2025 ERP release, with an additional 1 validated new addresses confirmed since the Census. Such a population size results in a density of 1,134 persons per square kilometer, matching typical benchmarks observed across places tracked by AreaSearch.
Local population increases were mostly supported by natural increase, which was responsible for roughly 65.0% of all population additions during the latest timeframes. AreaSearch incorporates regional projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024, using 2022 as their starting point. Where these are unavailable, SA2-level projections from the NSW State Government released in 2022 using a 2021 base are utilized. Cohort-specific growth rates derived from these figures are applied to all locations for the timeframe spanning 2032 to 2041. Future expectations suggest demographic expansion will be slightly underneath the nationwide median for statistical areas, with a projected increase of 130 persons by 2041 based on compiled SA2 projections, representing a 3.2% rise over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
64 new dwellings have been approved in Kearns over the past five years, an average of 12 a year. That is 4.8 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
According to building approval figures from the ABS, scaled from local regional statistics, the suburb of Kearns averages approximately 12 residential approvals yearly. A total of 64 dwellings were approved across the last 5 financial years (FY-21 to FY-25), with 4 recorded so far in FY-26. As the local population contracted in the preceding period, this additions rate has likely matched demand, giving purchasers reasonable options, while new dwellings carry an average estimated construction value of $449,000—moderately higher than regional baselines—suggesting a preference for higher-quality builds. Additionally, commercial development approvals total $177,000 this financial year, highlighting the residential focus of the community.
Relative to Greater Sydney, the suburb of Kearns registers roughly 75% of the per capita construction volume, placing it in the bottom 10th percentile of areas evaluated nationwide, which limits buyer selection and increases demand for established housing. Recent residential approvals are dominated by standalone houses at 82.0%, with attached dwellings making up the remaining 18.0%, preserving the classic low-density layout that draws families wanting extra space. With 1761 people for every residential approval, the suburb of Kearns presents as a highly established market. Long-term outlooks suggest the suburb of Kearns will add 86 new residents by 2041 according to the most recent quarterly projections from AreaSearch. At the current pace of building, new housing completions should easily cover demand, maintaining favorable purchasing conditions and potentially paving the way for expansion beyond baseline forecasts.

1,648 residents of Kearns are employed, from a labour force of 1,711. Unemployment sits at 3.7%, with participation at 80.9%. 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 1,898, about 71% 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 workforce in the suburb of Kearns features high skill levels, with strong representation in industrial and production fields, a low unemployment rate of 3.7%, and an annual employment growth estimate of 7.2% derived from regional data compiled by AreaSearch. There are 1,648 working residents as of March 2026, while the local jobless rate sits 0.4% lower than the Greater Sydney average of 4.1%. Workforce participation is particularly elevated at 80.9%, compared to 69.1% across the Greater Sydney region. Census figures show a substantial 30.7% of the labor force working from home, though this may reflect temporary pandemic restrictions.
Local jobs are heavily concentrated in healthcare & social assistance, retail trade, and construction. The suburb of Kearns shows an especially strong specialization in manufacturing, where employment is 1.6 times the regional norm. Conversely, professional & technical roles are underrepresented at 4.8%, compared to the regional benchmark of 11.5%. A comparison of the local jobs counted in the Census against the resident working population suggests a shortage of local workplace opportunities within the boundary. AreaSearch examined SALM and ABS data, which were combined from larger statistical zones, for the twelve months leading up to March 2026 and found that employment grew by 7.2% while the labour force expanded by 7.5%, which pushed the unemployment rate up by 0.3 percentage points. This trend is different from what happened in Greater Sydney, where employment went up by 1.9%, the labour force also grew by 1.9%, and the unemployment rate dropped slightly. Forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia, published in May-25, can help explain what might happen in the future for job opportunities in Kearns. These predictions, which look at both five and ten year horizons, were compared with the local job mix to guess how employment might change. The national outlook shows a 6.6% rise in jobs over five years and a 13.7% rise over ten years, but different industries are expected to grow at different speeds. When those industry rates are applied to the types of jobs in Kearns, the result is an estimated 6.0% increase in local employment over five years and a 12.6% increase over ten years, though this simple weighting exercise does not include local population changes.

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 — 1 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (2,693 at the 2021 Census → 2,678 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 May 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 (SAL12087). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
