This analysis uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, which can materially differ from Statistical Areas (SA2) even when sharing the same name.
SAL boundaries are defined by Australia Post and the Australian Bureau of Statistics to represent commonly-known suburb names used in postal addresses.
Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census data collection and may combine multiple suburbs or use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Sales Detail
Kilsyth has an estimated 12,616 residents, up from 11,699 at the 2021 Census — a change of 917 people, or 7.8%. Growth has averaged 1.2% a year over five years. 319 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. That puts 1,352 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 evaluations of ABS population adjustments for the wider region, combined with recent address verifications by AreaSearch following the Census, the suburb of Kilsyth has an estimated residency of approximately 12,616 individuals as of May 2026. This represents an addition of 917 residents (7.8%) relative to the 2021 Census, which registered 11,699 people. This shift is calculated from a resident base of 12,505, determined by AreaSearch after examining the ABS June 2025 release of ERP statistics alongside 319 confirmed new addresses post-Census. Such a population size results in a density of 1,352 persons per square kilometer, outstripping typical ratios across the country as analysed by AreaSearch.
The suburb of Kilsyth recorded a 7.8% expansion rate since the 2021 census, outpacing the broader SA4 region (3.8%) and positioning it as a local growth pacesetter. This demographic expansion was primarily fueled by international arrivals, accounting for roughly 36.0% of the total growth, though all contributors, including interstate migration and natural increase, remained positive. AreaSearch employs projections from ABS and Geoscience Australia for individual SA2 sectors, which were published in 2024 using 2022 as the anchor year. For any SA2 sectors lacking this coverage, AreaSearch applies the VIC State Government's Regional/LGA forecasts from 2023, modifying them via a weighted aggregation technique to translate LGA growth to SA2 boundaries. Age-specific expansion rates derived from these aggregations are also mapped across all sectors for the period from 2032 to 2041. Projecting forward, the suburb of Kilsyth is set to experience population growth exceeding the national median, with a projected increase of 2,444 residents by 2041 based on compiled SA2 data, illustrating a total expansion of 18.5% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
406 new dwellings have been approved in Kilsyth over the past five years, an average of 81 a year. That places the area in the 74th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 6 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 77 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 49% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 86, broadly in line with 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
Analysis by AreaSearch of ABS building approvals, distributed from regional data, shows that Kilsyth has maintained an annual average of approximately 81 new residential permits. This includes an estimated 406 dwellings approved over the preceding 5 fiscal years (from FY-21 to FY-25) and 79 approvals during the current FY-26 period. With an average of 1.8 individuals migrating to the district annually for every new home built between FY-21 and FY-25, residential supply and demand appear closely aligned, supporting stable market conditions. These new properties carry an average projected construction cost of $342,000.
Furthermore, $42.8 million in non-residential development permits have been registered in this financial year, pointing to robust commercial development activity. Current building permits are split between standalone houses at 49.0% and multi-unit dwellings at 51.0%. This movement toward higher-density options offers affordable entry points and attracts downsizers, investors, and first-time buyers. This represents a distinct departure from the existing housing stock, which is 85.0% standalone houses, reflecting a scarcity of vacant land while responding to changing lifestyles and affordability concerns. The area registers roughly 176 residents per residential permit, indicating an expanding property market. Long-term projections indicate Kilsyth will add 2,333 inhabitants by 2041, based on the latest quarterly calculations from AreaSearch. Current building volumes seem well-matched with future population needs, supporting stable real estate dynamics without causing sharp pricing pressures.

6,356 residents of Kilsyth are employed, from a labour force of 6,751. Unemployment sits at 5.9%, with participation at 66.2%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Kilsyth is characterized by a qualified workforce with a strong presence in essential services, showing an unemployment rate of 5.9% and steady job figures over the last year, based on AreaSearch's compilation of regional statistics. In March 2026, 6,356 locals were employed, representing an unemployment rate 1.1% higher than the Greater Melbourne benchmark of 4.8%, while participation in the labor force was slightly below the metropolitan standard (66.2% compared to 70.2% in Greater Melbourne). Census records indicate a moderate 22.7% of working residents operated from home, though this figure was likely influenced by pandemic containment measures.
The local workforce is heavily represented in healthcare & social assistance, construction, and manufacturing. The construction sector shows a particularly high concentration, employing workers at a rate 1.6 times the regional benchmark. Conversely, professional & technical roles account for only 6.0% of the working population, trailing the Greater Melbourne average of 10.1%. Although there are local employment opportunities, a comparison between the Census working population and local jobs indicates a significant number of residents travel to other areas for work. Analysis of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch, compiled from regional areas, shows that over the 12-month period, local employment saw no growth, rising by exactly zero percent, while the workforce expanded by 1.7%, leading to a rise in unemployment of 1.5 percentage points. This differed from Greater Melbourne, where employment grew by 2.1%, the workforce expanded by 2.3%, and the unemployment rate ticked up by 0.2 percentage points. National forecasts released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 offer additional perspective on potential future staffing demands in Kilsyth. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce structure to model future growth. While national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rates of change vary by industry. Mapping these industry-specific projections onto the local workforce suggests employment in Kilsyth should expand by 6.3% over five years and 13.3% over ten years, though this is a basic weighted extrapolation for demonstration purposes and does not account for localized 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 — 319 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (11,699 at the 2021 Census → 12,616 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.
