Kingsville has an estimated 4,166 residents, up from 3,920 at the 2021 Census — a change of 246 people, or 6.3%. Overseas migration accounts for 73.0% of that increase. That puts 5,707 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 regional ABS releases with address validations post-Census, the suburb of Kingsville has an estimated resident count of approximately 4,166 as of Aug 2026. This marks an expansion of 246 people (6.3%) compared to the 3,920 people counted in the 2021 Census. Such figures are derived from AreaSearch's 4,130 resident population estimate following the latest ABS ERP release in June 2025, alongside 18 validated new addresses confirmed since the Census date. Consequently, the suburb of Kingsville exhibits a population density of 5,706 persons per square kilometer, ranking within the top 10% across the country in AreaSearch assessments and underscoring intense demand for local land.
The suburb's expansion has been propelled mainly by overseas arrivals, who generated around 73.0% of recent population additions. In formulating demographic forecasts, AreaSearch references the ABS/Geoscience Australia 2024 releases based on the 2022 benchmark across SA2 locations, switching to the 2023 VIC State Government Regional/LGA projections via a weighted aggregation approach from LGA down to SA2 boundaries where necessary. Projected growth rates by age group through these models are similarly integrated for all locations spanning 2032 to 2041. Looking forward, the suburb of Kingsville is positioned for higher-than-median expansion relative to national figures, with aggregated SA2 modeling pointing to an increase of 720 persons by 2041, representing a total gain of 16.4% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
226 new dwellings have been approved in Kingsville over the past five years, an average of 45 a year. That is 11.5 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 47 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 4% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 7, 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
Evaluations of ABS building statistics by AreaSearch indicate that Kingsville averages approximately 45 residential approvals each year, totaling roughly 226 residential approvals across the last 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 7 logged to date in FY-25. Because an average of virtually no new residents arrived per completed residence over the preceding 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), residential construction is comfortably keeping pace with or exceeding local demand, expanding options for purchasers and facilitating higher-than-projected population gains. Furthermore, newly approved properties carry an average expected construction cost of $588,000, marginally above regional benchmarks and indicative of premium construction projects.
Development throughput in Kingsville tracks moderately above regional levels, exceeding Greater Melbourne by 13.0% per capita over the 5 year period to ensure sustained property demand alongside solid buyer choice, despite an easing in building momentum during recent periods. Compared with nationwide figures, this elevated activity signals robust builder and developer confidence. Approvals are overwhelmingly concentrated in high-density formats, comprising 96.0% townhouses or apartments and 4.0% detached dwellings. This shift toward compact footprints delivers accessible price points catering to first-home buyers, downsizers, and property investors. It represents a marked departure from the existing housing stock (presently 61.0% houses), meeting changing lifestyle preferences and budget constraints while adjusting to fewer available building parcels. Demonstrating the established nature of the suburb, there are approximately 487 people per dwelling approval. Moving forward, projections indicate Kingsville will add 684 residents through to 2041 relative to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly update. Under prevailing construction trends, the pipeline of residential projects appears well positioned to satisfy demand, generating favorable purchasing conditions and potentially enabling local expansion beyond baseline forecasts.

2,704 residents of Kingsville are employed, from a labour force of 2,797. Unemployment sits at 3.3%, with participation at 82.8%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,920, about 70% 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 local labour pool in Kingsville is characterized by advanced educational qualifications and significant participation in professional roles, alongside an unemployment rate standing at just 3.3% and a 2.2% annual increase in jobs based on statistical area aggregations by AreaSearch. In March 2026, working residents numbered 2,704, with the local jobless rate tracking 1.4% lower than the 4.8% recorded across Greater Melbourne, accompanied by an exceptional participation rate of 82.8% versus 70.1% for the broader metropolitan area. Census records also revealed that 50.2% of workers performed their duties remotely, an outcome potentially shaped by Covid-19 restrictions.
Major employment sectors for local residents include health care & social assistance, professional & technical, and education & training. Furthermore, public administration & safety exhibits a distinct concentration locally, with worker representation tracking at 1.6 times the regional average. Conversely, construction claims a smaller share of the local workforce at 6.1%, compared to 9.7% across the wider region. As evidenced by the ratio of local jobs to resident workers in Census data, this largely residential district provides relatively few on-site workplace opportunities. AreaSearch examined SALM and ABS data that were combined from larger statistical regions to show that, during the year to March 2026, employment rose by 2.2% while the labour force grew by 2.0%, which led to a 0.2 percentage point decline in unemployment. In Greater Melbourne, employment grew by 2.1%, the labour force expanded by 2.3%, and unemployment increased by 0.2 percentage points. Jobs and Skills Australia published national employment forecasts from Mar-26 that can help understand potential future demand inside Kingsville. These projections span five and ten year periods and have been overlaid on the local employment profile to estimate how jobs might grow. Over five years, national employment is expected to rise by 6.6%, and over ten years it is expected to rise by 13.7%, though different industry sectors show varying growth rates. When these industry specific forecasts are applied to Kingsville's current employment mix, local employment is projected to grow by 6.9% over five years and by 14.0% over ten years, with the understanding that this is a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not include localised population projections.

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 — 18 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,920 at the 2021 Census → 4,166 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 (SAL21365). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
