Koondoola has an estimated 4,219 residents, up from 3,919 at the 2021 Census — a change of 300 people, or 7.7%. Growth has averaged 0.6% a year over five years. Overseas migration accounts for 75.0% of that increase. That puts 1,199 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
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Koondoola has a population estimated at approximately 4,219, according to AreaSearch evaluations combining broader ABS demographic updates and validated new addresses identified since the Census. When compared to the 2021 Census tally of 3,919 people, this represents an expansion of 300 people (7.7%). This calculation draws on an Estimated Resident Population figure of 4,218 determined from the ABS June 2025 ERP release alongside 19 validated new addresses confirmed after the Census date. Consequently, population density stands at 1,198 persons per square kilometer, aligning closely with typical benchmarks evaluated across AreaSearch regions.
Showing solid demographic momentum, the suburb of Koondoola recorded 7.7% growth since census, trailing the 9.5% national benchmark by only 1.8 percentage points. Influx from overseas migration served as the core growth catalyst, underpinning roughly 75.0% of net population additions in recent times. Longer-term demographic projections for the suburb of Koondoola utilise 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia data anchored to a 2022 baseline for individual SA2 units, supplemented by age-cohort trajectories from the 2023 Greater Capital Region dataset (based on 2022 data) for remaining zones and post-2032 modeling. Over the 16 years running to 2041, aggregated SA2 figures indicate the suburb of Koondoola will add 98 persons, representing an overall rise of 2.3% and positioning the locality within the lower quartile of growth among areas tracked by AreaSearch.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
124 new dwellings have been approved in Koondoola over the past five years, an average of 24 a year. That is 5.1 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 22 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 86% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 17, 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
Analysis of ABS building approvals compiled by AreaSearch indicates that residential construction in Koondoola has averaged approximately 24 new homes annually, amounting to 124 homes across the past 5 financial years, with 17 approvals registered during FY-25 to date. Between FY-21 and FY-25, the local market maintained balanced fundamentals with 1.2 people added per completed dwelling over the past 5 financial years; however, this ratio increased to 3.7 people per dwelling across the past 2 financial years, pointing toward tighter supply conditions and strengthening demand. Typical construction value stands at $330,000 per dwelling, providing an entry point below broader metropolitan benchmarks.
Non-residential activity remains modest, with $1.9 million in commercial development approvals logged in the current financial year, highlighting the primarily residential character of the neighborhood. Per capita residential development in Koondoola sits 56.0% below the Greater Perth benchmark, reflecting subdued building volumes that tend to support pricing and demand across established stock. Detached houses constitute 86.0% of recent construction, while medium and high-density housing makes up 14.0%, reinforcing the traditional low-density suburban landscape favored by family households. An approval ratio of 262 people per dwelling approval characterizes the local development climate. Projected demographic shifts indicate Koondoola will register an additional 97 residents by 2041, based on the latest quarterly calculations from AreaSearch. At prevailing construction rates, future residential completions should comfortably absorb incoming demand, ensuring favorable market conditions for purchasers and creating capacity for potential growth beyond baseline projections.

1,694 residents of Koondoola are employed, from a labour force of 1,945. Unemployment sits at 12.9%, with participation at 57.1%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 3,745, about 89% 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
Koondoola supports a diverse mix of blue-collar and white-collar workers, with construction representing a major area of workforce concentration. Aggregated statistical area figures compiled by AreaSearch show an unemployment rate of 12.9% alongside annual jobs growth of 1.9%. As of March 2026, employed residents total 1,694, though the jobless rate sits 8.7% higher than the Greater Perth rate of 4.2%, and labor force participation remains subdued at 57.1% compared to 69.9% across the wider capital. Working from home accounted for just 3.1% of workforce responses at the Census, although earlier Covid-19 restrictions may have influenced these figures.
Health care & social assistance, construction, and retail trade serve as the primary employment sectors for local residents. The suburb demonstrates strong specialization in manufacturing, where employment concentration reaches 1.7 times the metropolitan benchmark. In contrast, professional & technical roles account for only 3.0% of the local workforce, compared to the regional standard of 8.2%. A comparison of Census working population counts against resident numbers indicates that local employment opportunities within the boundary itself remain constrained. Over the twelve months to March 2026, AreaSearch evaluation of ABS and SALM data shows that Koondoola experienced a 1.9% rise in employment alongside a 3.8% increase in the total labor force, resulting in a 1.6 percentage points rise in unemployment. Across Greater Perth over the same timeframe, employment climbed 2.0% and the workforce grew 2.5%, yielding a smaller 0.4 percentage point rise. Broader employment projections released by Jobs and Skills Australia in Mar-26 forecast national job growth of 6.6% across five years and 13.7% over ten years. Weighting these sectoral trajectories against Koondoola's specific occupational makeup suggests local employment could expand by 5.8% over five years and 12.4% over ten years, based on illustrative industry weighting without factoring in localized population adjustments.

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 — 19 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,919 at the 2021 Census → 4,219 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.
