Para Hills has an estimated 6,774 residents. That puts 2,110 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
According to the evaluation of ABS demographic updates for the wider region, alongside address points verified by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Para Hills has an estimated residency of 6,774 as of May 2026. This represents a reduction of 19 people (0.3%) from the 2021 Census, which documented 6,793 residents. The shift is calculated from a resident base of 6,742, calculated by AreaSearch using the most recent ERP statistics from the ABS (June 2025) plus an additional 53 validated new addresses since the Census. This count translates to a density of 2,110 persons per square kilometer, exceeding the typical ratio found across national locations examined by AreaSearch.
Growth in the locality was mainly supported by arrivals from overseas, who made up approximately 62.0% of the total demographic gains during recent timeframes. AreaSearch utilizes projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for individual SA2 sectors, published in 2024 with 2022 as the anchor year. In cases where SA2 records are missing, and for the years after 2032, regional and LGA age projections published by the SA State Government in 2023 using 2021 data are used, adjusted by weighting the population expansion from the LGA level to SA2 bounds. Looking ahead at changing demographics, the suburb of Para Hills is projected to experience growth slightly below the midpoint of Australian statistical territories, increasing by 341 persons by 2041 under consolidated SA2 projections, representing a total rise of 4.6% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
180 new dwellings have been approved in Para Hills over the past five years, an average of 36 a year. That is 5.3 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 38 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 95% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 15, 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
According to the AreaSearch review of ABS building consent statistics distributed from local area data, the suburb of Para Hills has averaged approximately 36 residential permits per year, resulting in an estimated 180 houses over the course of the last 5 financial years. In the current FY-26 period, 14 authorizations have been documented. As the population has trended downward over the last few years, the volume of housing has remained sufficient to meet local demand, sustaining a balanced market with options for buyers, while newly built properties average a value of $329,000.
Furthermore, $3.3 million in non-residential commercial approvals have been registered during this financial year, which highlights the residential emphasis of the neighborhood. Compared to the broader Greater Adelaide region, the suburb of Para Hills experiences a somewhat higher volume of building activity (46.0% above the regional per capita median over the 5 year period), which helps maintain buyer options while supporting established property values. Recent building patterns show that 95.0% of completions are detached houses and 5.0% are attached units, reinforcing a classic suburban layout dominated by standalone homes that appeal to families needing extra room. The suburb of Para Hills averages approximately 211 people for every residential approval, pointing to a low-density property environment. Long-term forecasts indicate that the suburb of Para Hills will add 309 residents by 2041 (starting from the most recent AreaSearch quarterly calculation). Given current construction trends, the volume of new housing is projected to satisfy buyer needs, maintaining favorable purchase conditions and potentially supporting expansion that outpaces these baseline expectations.

3,375 residents of Para Hills are employed, from a labour force of 3,531. Unemployment sits at 4.4%, with participation at 63.9%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 5,196, about 77% 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 suburb of Para Hills possesses a capable labor force with strong representation in core public service sectors, and shows an unemployment rate of 4.4% based on aggregated local statistical data. In March 2026, there were 3,375 working residents, representing an unemployment rate 0.6% higher than the Greater Adelaide figure of 3.8%. The labor participation rate is slightly below the regional benchmark, sitting at 63.9% relative to Greater Adelaide's 66.6%. Census files show that a modest 6.9% of workers operated from home, though this figure may have been influenced by COVID-19 containment measures.
Working residents are primarily employed in healthcare & social assistance, construction, and retail trade. The building sector shows a strong concentration locally, running at 1.3 times the regional average share. In contrast, professional & technical roles are underrepresented, accounting for 4.1% of local employment compared to 7.3% across the wider region. Because it is mostly a residential area, the suburb of Para Hills provides a relatively small pool of local jobs relative to the size of its working resident population. Analyses of SALM and ABS data, compiled from wider statistical regions, indicate that over the 12 months to March 2026, the labour force grew by 0.1% while employment dropped by 0.6%, leading to a 0.6 percentage point increase in unemployment. In contrast, Greater Adelaide experienced a 4.2% rise in employment, a 4.0% expansion in the labour force, and a 0.2 percentage point decrease in unemployment. Forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia released in May-25 may provide additional context regarding future job demand in Para Hills. These projections span five and ten-year horizons and have been overlaid on the local employment structure to estimate future growth trends. Nationally, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though expansion varies considerably across different industry sectors. When these sector-specific forecasts are applied to Para Hills's current employment composition, local employment is expected to rise by 6.3% over five years and 13.2% over ten years. It should be noted that this approach uses a basic weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not incorporate 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 — 53 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (6,793 at the 2021 Census → 6,774 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.
