Sales Detail
Keilor Downs has an estimated 9,962 residents, up from 9,857 at the 2021 Census — a change of 105 people, or 1.1%. That puts 1,985 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
In the suburb of Keilor Downs, the local population is estimated at approximately 9,962 as of Aug 2026, drawing on AreaSearch analysis of ABS regional figures alongside newly verified addresses since the Census. Compared to the 2021 Census tally of 9,857 people, this indicates an expansion of 105 people (1.1%). The updated count is derived from an Estimated Resident Population (ERP) benchmark of 9,954 established by AreaSearch via the latest ABS release (June 2025), coupled with 65 validated new addresses documented after the Census date. This population sits at a density of 1,984 persons per square kilometer, placing it higher than the typical locality evaluated by AreaSearch across Australia.
The 1.1% gain in the suburb of Keilor Downs since census trails the broader SA3 area (2.2%) by only 1.1 percentage points, signaling sound demographic momentum. Incoming international arrivals served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 77.0% of recent population additions. Projections for the suburb of Keilor Downs utilise ABS/Geoscience Australia models published in 2024 (using 2022 as a baseline) across SA2 areas, supplemented where necessary by 2023 VIC State Government Regional/LGA releases through weighted growth aggregation from LGA down to SA2 boundaries. Age-specific trajectories derived from these methods are extended across 2032 to 2041 for all localities. Looking ahead, the suburb of Keilor Downs is projected to register demographic expansion just below the national statistical median, gaining 437 persons to 2041 under aggregated SA2 modeling, which translates to a cumulative rise of 4.3% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
151 new dwellings have been approved in Keilor Downs over the past five years, an average of 30 a year. That is 2.6 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 26 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 23% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 12, 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
ABS residential building consent figures reviewed by AreaSearch reveal that Keilor Downs records an average of approximately 30 dwellings authorized per year, culminating in 151 homes approved over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 12 approved during FY-25 to date. Against a backdrop of recent population declines, incoming dwelling completions appear to adequately satisfy local requirements, giving buyers ample options while new dwellings carry an average anticipated build cost of $510,000. Furthermore, commercial building approvals have reached $60.1 million during this financial year, underscoring substantial non-residential construction activity.
Per capita residential construction in Keilor Downs sits 17.0% below Greater Melbourne levels, ranking in the 55th percentile across all Australian areas evaluated, even with a recent pickup in activity. This volume also tracks below the nationwide benchmark, pointing to an established suburban footprint and possible local planning constraints. Recent authorizations comprise 23.0% detached houses and 77.0% medium and high-density formats. This pronounced tilt toward medium and high-density formats creates accessible price points for first-time purchasers, downsizers, and investors. It marks a clear departure from the existing structural profile (which stands at 85.0% houses), driven by scarce development parcels and evolving household preferences for manageable living. With approximately 255 people per dwelling approval, the locality retains the profile of a low density area. Demographic modeling indicates Keilor Downs will add 429 residents by 2041 relative to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly update. At prevailing building approval volumes, upcoming residential development should comfortably satisfy this demand, maintaining favorable conditions for prospective purchasers and accommodating population expansion beyond baseline expectations.

Essendon Keilor College - East Keilor Campus Upgrade and Modernisation
The Victorian Government is undertaking planning for a future upgrade and modernisation of the former Essendon Keilor College East Keilor Campus. Planning commenced in 2023 with funding allocated for design and investigation works. As of 2026, the campus has ceased operating as an Essendon Keilor College campus and part of the site is being repurposed for the new Niddrie Autistic School campus, while the broader upgrade remains subject to future construction funding.
5,014 residents of Keilor Downs are employed, from a labour force of 5,325. Unemployment sits at 5.8%, with participation at 62.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.1% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 7,940, 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
Keilor Downs supports a skilled labour force spanning diverse industries, featuring an unemployment rate of 5.8% alongside a 2.3% gain in total employment over the previous twelve months, based on AreaSearch statistical modeling. As of March 2026, working residents number 5,014, with the local jobless rate tracking 1.1% above the Greater Melbourne benchmark of 4.8%, while the labour force participation rate of 62.5% trails the Greater Melbourne figure of 70.1%. Census records showed that 23.1% of local workers operated from home, though this figure was influenced by COVID-19 restrictions. The largest sectors employing local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction.
A notable local workforce concentration is evident in transport, postal & warehousing, where the local employment proportion is 1.9 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical roles are underrepresented, engaging just 6.0% of workers in Keilor Downs compared to 10.1% across Greater Melbourne. Given the disparity between the local working population and resident labour force, this largely residential district provides limited employment within its own borders. According to AreaSearch findings that combine SALM and ABS figures drawn from larger statistical regions, the period ending March 2026 saw employment grow by 2.3% alongside a 2.3% rise in the labour force, while unemployment stayed virtually the same. This stands in contrast to Greater Melbourne, where employment climbed by 2.1%, the labour force expanded by 2.3%, and unemployment increased by 0.2 percentage points. Insights from Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment outlooks dated Mar-26 may help clarify anticipated future demand in Keilor Downs. These forecasts span five and ten year horizons and have been overlaid on the local employment composition to gauge likely expansion trends. Nationally, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% across five years and by 13.7% across ten years, though sectoral growth varies considerably. When these industry-specific estimates are applied to Keilor Downs's current employment structure, local employment is expected to rise by 6.1% over five years and by 12.7% over ten years. It is important to note that this represents a basic weighted extrapolation intended for illustration and does not incorporate localized population forecasts.

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 — 65 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (9,857 at the 2021 Census → 9,962 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 (SAL21315). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
