Mount Keira has an estimated 1,614 residents, down from 1,691 at the 2021 Census — a change of 77 people, or 4.6%. That puts 232 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 Mount Keira is estimated to have a population of approximately 1,614, according to AreaSearch evaluations combining regional ABS updates with 1 validated new addresses recorded since the Census date. Compared to the 2021 Census tally of 1,691 people, this represents a reduction of 77 people (4.6%). This adjustment stems from an ERP count of 1,613 determined by AreaSearch after assessing the June 2025 ABS figures alongside post-Census address validation. With a density of 231 persons per square kilometer, the locality offers generous living space alongside development capacity.
Net international arrivals served as the main demographic catalyst, accounting for roughly 89.0% of total inbound growth over recent periods. To model demographic trajectories, AreaSearch incorporates SA2-level ABS/Geoscience Australia forecasts published in 2024 (using 2022 as the base year), drawing upon NSW State Government SA2 series published in 2022 (with a 2021 baseline) where coverage requires. Cohort-specific growth rates derived from these datasets extend across 2032 to 2041. Over the coming 16 years, the suburb of Mount Keira is projected to experience substantial expansion placing it within the upper quartile of regional Australia, adding 430 persons by 2041 under aggregated SA2 modeling, which represents an overall rise of 26.5%.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
Detail
Building approvals in Mount Keira remain very subdued, averaging 1 new dwellings each year, amounting to 8 dwellings across the five-year period. This modest volume aligns with rural localities where infrastructure constraints and limited accommodation pressure naturally restrict residential construction. Given the small baseline of approvals, annual percentages and year-on-year trends can fluctuate substantially from single developments. Newly approved residential construction is split evenly, with 50.0% detached dwellings and 50.0% townhouses or apartments. While standalone homes currently constitute 92.0% houses across the established stock, this emerging tilt toward higher-density formats provides more accessible price points for first-time buyers, investors, and downsizers amid tighter land availability.
An average of 803 people per approved dwelling further highlights the quiet pace of building activity across the locality. Based on the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate, Mount Keira is anticipated to absorb an additional 428 residents by 2041. Should current approval volumes persist, residential building activity could lag behind demographic expansion, creating tighter market conditions and upward pressure on property values.

888 residents of Mount Keira are employed, from a labour force of 910. Unemployment sits at 2.4%, with participation at 68.5%. 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 1,822, about 113% of the resident population, so the area draws in more workers than it sends out. 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 market in Mount Keira is characterized by skilled professionals and solid representation in essential industries, achieving an unemployment rate of 2.4% alongside an estimated 1.5% annual jobs increase per AreaSearch statistical aggregations. By March 2026, employed locals numbered 888 residents, holding the jobless rate 1.7% under the 4.1% benchmark of Regional NSW. Labor participation is notably elevated at 68.5% compared to 60.6% across Regional NSW. Furthermore, 34.2% of working residents reported operating from home in Census data, though Covid-19 restrictions during that period may have influenced this outcome.
Resident employment is heavily weighted toward professional & technical fields, health care & social assistance, and education & training. The suburb exhibits strong industry concentration in education & training, where local participation reaches 1.7 times the broader regional benchmark. In contrast, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 0.5% of workers against 5.3% across the wider region. Additionally, a Census figure of 0.8 workers per resident demonstrates a robust base of local job opportunities. According to AreaSearch examination of ABS and SALM statistical series across the year to March 2026, local headcount grew by 1.5% while the overall workforce expanded by 1.4%, sustaining steady unemployment levels. In contrast, Regional NSW experienced an employment reduction of 0.9% and a workforce contraction of 0.4%, accompanied by a 0.5 percentage points uptick in unemployment. Looking ahead, Jobs and Skills Australia projections from Mar-26 provide outlook indications across five and ten-year horizons. Nationally, jobs are modeled to rise 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years. Aligning these sectoral projections with Mount Keira's industry composition yields an estimated local employment expansion of 6.9% over five years and 14.3% over ten years, though this weighted extrapolation is purely indicative and excludes micro-level population shifts.

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 — 1 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (1,691 at the 2021 Census → 1,614 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 (SAL12779). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
