Menora has an estimated 2,993 residents, up from 2,691 at the 2021 Census — a change of 302 people, or 11.2%. Growth has averaged 1.4% a year over five years, faster than 75% of areas nationally. Overseas migration accounts for 92.0% of that increase. That puts 2,603 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 Menora, the resident count stands at approximately 2,993 as of Aug 2026, according to AreaSearch evaluations combining broader ABS demographic updates with post-Census validated new addresses. Compared to the 2021 Census tally of 2,691 people, this represents an addition of 302 people (11.2%). This figure builds upon an AreaSearch resident estimate of 2,984 that evaluated post-Census address validations alongside the ABS June 2025 ERP release. Demographic density is registered at 2,602 persons per square kilometer, positioning the suburb of Menora within the upper quartile among nationwide localities tracked by AreaSearch.
With an expansion of 11.2% following the 2021 census, the suburb of Menora outpaced the national average (9.5%) to establish itself as a regional growth leader. The primary catalyst behind these local gains was overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 92.0% of overall population increases in recent periods. Demographic projections deployed by AreaSearch incorporate ABS/Geoscience Australia data released in 2024 (using 2022 as a base year) across individual SA2 areas. For locations omitted from this dataset and for post-2032 modeling across all territories, AreaSearch applies cohort-specific growth rates from the latest ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023, utilizing 2022 data). Looking ahead, long-term trends indicate substantial demographic expansion that sits within the top quartile of Australian statistical divisions. Based on aggregated SA2 modeling, the suburb of Menora is projected to add 718 persons by 2041, representing a total demographic gain of 23.7% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
Detail
Property development assessments from AreaSearch, derived from ABS building approval data distributed across statistical boundaries, show that the suburb has averaged around 3 dwellings receiving development approval per year, amounting to approximately 18 homes across the last 5 financial years. Within FY-25 to date, 15 approvals have been documented. With around 6.2 new residents per year added for each completed residence across the past 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), local residential construction is trailing demand considerably, which typically elevates buyer rivalry and exerts upward pressure on prices. Furthermore, new residences record an average construction value of $600,000, illustrating that builders are concentrating on premium-grade, higher-end stock.
On a per-capita basis, building activity in Menora is roughly half that of Greater Perth, placing it in the 69th percentile nationwide despite a recent pickup in construction. This below-average output reflects the established nature of the suburb alongside possible urban planning constraints. Newly approved construction is divided between 40.0% detached houses and 60.0% townhouses or apartments. This pivot toward higher-density dwelling types creates accessible purchasing pathways for first-time buyers, investors, and downsizers. It also signals a structural transition from the current housing stock (where 56.0% are houses), driven by diminishing vacant land and demand for diverse, affordable living formats. Recording about 179 people per approval, Menora displays characteristics of an evolving market. Long-term demographic forecasts project that Menora will expand by 709 residents leading up to 2041 (benchmarked from the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate). Should residential construction continue at current paces, housing completions could face challenges keeping pace with population inflows, reinforcing market competition and bolstering property values.

As of 2026, the project is in the execution phase, following detailed design and community consultation on equipment placement. The initiative aims to improve network reliability, reduce storm-related outages, and enhance the local tree canopy by removing overhead poles and wires.
City of Vincent Local Planning Scheme No. 2 and Precinct Guidelines
Local Planning Scheme No. 2 (LPS2) is the primary statutory framework regulating land use and development within the City of Vincent. As of March 2026, Amendment 13 has been formally gazetted, introducing updated controls and definitions for Short-Term Rental Accommodation (STRA) across the district. Parallel to the scheme, the City is conducting a comprehensive Precinct Transport Study for Highgate and Mount Lawley as of April 2026 to enhance road safety and pedestrian accessibility along the Beaufort Street corridor.
1,343 residents of Menora are employed, from a labour force of 1,370. Unemployment sits at 2.0%, with participation at 51.9%. 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 2,375, about 79% 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
Menora features an exceptionally qualified labor market with significant representation across professional services, an unemployment rate of merely 2.0%, and annual employment growth estimated at 3.5%, based on AreaSearch statistical aggregations. By March 2026, employed residents numbered 1,343, while local unemployment sat 2.2% lower than the 4.2% recorded across Greater Perth. Conversely, labor participation in the area is substantially subdued at 51.9%, compared to 69.9% for Greater Perth. In addition, Census records indicated that 12.8% of workers operated from home, though these figures may reflect Covid-19 restrictions. The leading employment industries among local workers are health care & social assistance, professional & technical, and education & training.
The workforce exhibits an exceptional concentration in professional & technical fields, exceeding the regional average by 1.7 times. On the other hand, manufacturing accounts for only 3.2% of the resident workforce, trailing the Greater Perth level of 5.5%. As a largely residential community, local employment opportunities within the boundary remain limited when comparing Census working population counts against resident workers. AreaSearch analysis of ABS and SALM figures indicates that in the year to March 2026, resident employment rose by 3.5% while the labor pool expanded by 3.7%, resulting in a 0.2 percentage points increase in unemployment. Over the same timeframe across Greater Perth, employment increased by 2.0%, the labor force expanded by 2.5%, and unemployment ticked up by 0.4 percentage points. Prospective labor demand can also be evaluated through national employment projections released by Jobs and Skills Australia in Mar-26. Projected nationally at 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, industry expansion varies widely across sectors. Applying these industry trajectories to the resident profile suggests local job opportunities could rise by 6.9% over five years and 14.1% over ten years (calculated via simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes, without local 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. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,691 at the 2021 Census → 2,993 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.
