Detail
According to ABS demographic updates and post-Census address verification by AreaSearch, the suburb of Oak Park has an estimated population of 7,256 as of May 2026. This represents an 8.1% rise, or 542 additional residents, from the 2021 Census figure of 6,714 people. This shift is calculated from an AreaSearch resident count of 7,219, which utilised the ABS June 2025 ERP data release, combined with 102 validated new addresses recorded since the Census. With a density of 3,574 persons per square kilometer, the suburb ranks in the top quartile of Australian areas evaluated by AreaSearch.
The suburb of Oak Park outpaced the wider SA3 region, which grew by 7.9%, establishing the suburb as a local growth leader. Overseas migration was the primary driver, accounting for 73.0% of the demographic expansion in recent times. Projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia released in 2024 (using 2022 as a baseline) have been adopted for each SA2 area. Where data was unavailable, LGA-to-SA2 weighted growth aggregations from the VIC State Government's 2023 projections were used instead. Age group growth rates derived from these statistics are applied to the years 2032 through 2041. Looking forward, the suburb of Oak Park is anticipated to experience exceptional growth, placing it in the top 10 percent of all areas assessed by AreaSearch. Population levels are projected to rise by 3,410 persons by 2041, representing a overall increase of 46.5% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
325 new dwellings have been approved in Oak Park over the past five years, an average of 65 a year. That places the area in the 60th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 9 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 68 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 13% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 51, 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
An analysis of ABS building approvals indicates that the suburb of Oak Park has averaged approximately 65 residential approvals annually, amounting to 325 new dwellings over the past 5 financial years. In the current FY-26 period, 47 approvals have been logged. With an average of 0.8 new residents per home between FY-21 and FY-25, residential construction is keeping pace with or exceeding demand, providing buyers with extra choices and supporting demographic expansion. The average construction cost of new dwellings stands at $479,000, suggesting developers are concentrating on higher-end, premium properties.
Meanwhile, commercial approvals total $1.9 million for the current financial year, suggesting minimal commercial development. In comparison to Greater Melbourne, the suburb of Oak Park recorded 42.0% more new home approvals per capita over the 5 year period, maintaining options for buyers and supporting local property demand, despite a recent slowdown in activity. The breakdown of new approvals consists of 13.0% detached houses and 87.0% medium to high-density dwellings. This focus on higher-density construction offers affordable entry points suitable for investors, downsizers, and first-time buyers, representing a major shift from the existing dwelling profile of 56.0% houses, reflecting limited land availability and changing lifestyles. Averaging 162 people per approval, the suburb displays the characteristics of a growing area. Projections indicate that the suburb of Oak Park is set to add 3,373 residents by 2041, based on the most recent quarterly estimate from AreaSearch. If development remains at current levels, housing supply could struggle to meet this demand, potentially intensifying buyer competition and driving prices upward.

4,496 residents of Oak Park are employed, from a labour force of 4,598. Unemployment sits at 2.2%, with participation at 75.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 5,403, about 74% 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 workforce in the suburb of Oak Park is highly educated, featuring a strong contingent of professionals, an unemployment rate of 2.2%, and stable employment patterns over the past year. Data from March 2026 shows 4,496 employed residents, with an unemployment rate 2.6% below the Greater Melbourne average of 4.8%. The workforce participation rate is high at 75.5%, compared to 70.2% for Greater Melbourne. Census records indicate that 39.9% of residents worked from home, though this figure was influenced by Covid-19 restrictions. The primary sectors employing local residents are health care & social assistance, professional & technical, and education & training.
The professional & technical sector is highly concentrated, representing 1.2 times the metropolitan average. Conversely, retail trade accounts for a relatively low 7.9% of local employment, compared to 9.8% across the region. The comparison between the local working population and the resident population suggests that this largely residential area offers few local jobs. According to SALM and ABS statistics, during the 12 months ending March 2026, the local labour force contracted by 0.7% and total employment fell by 0.2%, which led to a 0.6 percentage point decline in the unemployment rate. By contrast, Greater Melbourne saw employment grow by 2.1%, the labour force expand by 2.3%, and the unemployment rate rise by 0.2 percentage points. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia (released May-25) provide context for future local demand. Over five and ten-year horizons, national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% and 13.7% respectively, though rates vary by sector. Applying these trends to the local employment structure suggests employment for the suburb of Oak Park could rise by 6.8% over five years and 13.9% over ten years, representing a simple weighted extrapolation that does not account for specific local 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 — 102 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (6,714 at the 2021 Census → 7,256 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.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (SAL21998). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
