Detail
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Oaklands Park has an estimated tally of approximately 4,668 residents, determined through AreaSearch's evaluation of broader ABS population revisions and post-Census validated addresses. Compared to the 3,948 individuals documented in the 2021 Census, this demonstrates an expansion of 720 people (18.2%). The estimate is calculated from an AreaSearch resident base of 4,655 derived from the ABS ERP release in June 2025, alongside 159 validated new addresses confirmed after the Census date. With a density of 2,310 persons per square kilometer, the locality sits above the nationwide benchmark in AreaSearch assessments.
Outperforming the wider SA4 region (6.3%) and the SA3 area, the suburb of Oaklands Park established itself as a regional growth frontrunner with its 18.2% post-2021 Census increase, largely propelled by overseas migration which supplied roughly 94.0% of total demographic additions in recent times. Projections compiled by Geoscience Australia and the ABS from 2024, utilizing 2022 baseline statistics, are implemented by AreaSearch across SA2 boundaries. Where figures are unavailable or extend beyond 2032, state projections published by the SA State Government in 2023 (incorporating 2021 numbers) by age group are integrated via weighted population growth aggregations transitioning from LGA to SA2 tiers. Forward-looking demographic assessments place the suburb of Oaklands Park in the highest quartile across Australia, with consolidated SA2 data anticipating a gain of 1,150 persons by 2041, representing a cumulative 24.4% rise throughout the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
377 new dwellings have been approved in Oaklands Park over the past five years, an average of 75 a year. That places the area in the 81st percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 16 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 80 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 54% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 64, 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
ABS building approvals collated by AreaSearch indicate that Oaklands Park sees approximately 75 dwellings authorized annually, reaching an aggregate of 377 homes approved across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 64 recorded to date in FY-25. Incoming migration averaged 1.5 people annually per constructed residence over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), reflecting well-aligned supply and demand dynamics that preserve stability, alongside an average expected construction cost of $361,000 per dwelling. Furthermore, the district's overwhelmingly domestic profile is underscored by $3.3 million in commercial planning consents during the current financial year.
Per capita residential construction in Oaklands Park surpasses Greater Adelaide by 167.0%, which provides abundant options for purchasers despite a recent deceleration in building activity. This rate substantially eclipses national benchmarks, highlighting strong developer engagement. Consents feature a distribution of 54.0% detached houses and 46.0% medium-density formats including townhouses or apartments, delivering diverse price points from compact entry-level dwellings to family homes. Demonstrating key expansion sector traits, the locality registers roughly 66 people per residential consent. Longer-term modeling indicates Oaklands Park will welcome an extra 1,137 residents by 2041 based on recent quarterly AreaSearch updates. Existing construction volume appears well-positioned to satisfy incoming demand, maintaining favorable purchasing conditions and potentially enabling demographic gains beyond baseline forecasts.

2,403 residents of Oaklands Park are employed, from a labour force of 2,551. Unemployment sits at 5.8%, with participation at 62.7%. 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, so in an area growing as fast as this one it understates the likely rise in local jobs. The working-day population is estimated at 6,498, about 139% 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
A highly qualified labor force characterizes Oaklands Park, marked by prominent representation in essential services, an unemployment rate of 5.8%, and a 7.4% twelve-month employment uptick according to statistical area aggregations by AreaSearch. In March 2026, employed locals numbered 2,403, while unemployment exceeded Greater Adelaide's 3.8% benchmark by 2.0%, accompanied by a participation rate of 62.7% (compared to 66.4% across Greater Adelaide). Census findings indicated that 10.6% of workers carried out duties remotely, though figures should be considered in light of Covid-19 restrictions. Local workers are concentrated primarily across retail trade, education & training, and health care & social assistance.
Conversely, the manufacturing sector is less prominent, engaging 5.5% of workers in Oaklands Park versus 7.0% throughout Greater Adelaide. At the Census, the presence of 1.3 workers for each local resident established the district as an active employment center that draws commuter inflows from adjacent suburbs. ABS and SALM records analyzed by AreaSearch across broader zones show that in the twelve months leading to March 2026, jobs grew by 7.4% while the available workforce expanded by 6.8%, reducing unemployment by 0.6 percentage points. Across Greater Adelaide over the same period, employment increased by 4.2%, the labor pool lifted by 4.0%, and joblessness decreased by 0.2 percentage points. National projections issued by Jobs and Skills Australia in Mar-26 provide additional context on potential workforce requirements in Oaklands Park. Nationally, overall jobs are projected to lift by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with performance varying by sector. Aligning these sectoral projections with the resident workforce profile suggests local employment could lift by 6.9% over five years and 14.4% over ten years (calculated via simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative reference, excluding localized demographic forecasts).

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 — 159 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,948 at the 2021 Census → 4,668 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 (SAL41067). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
