This analysis uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, which can materially differ from Statistical Areas (SA2) even when sharing the same name.
SAL boundaries are defined by Australia Post and the Australian Bureau of Statistics to represent commonly-known suburb names used in postal addresses.
Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census data collection and may combine multiple suburbs or use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Detail
According to AreaSearch's evaluation of regional ABS updates alongside newly validated local addresses following the Census, the suburb of Park Holme houses approximately 3,427 residents as of Aug 2026. This represents a gain of 228 people (7.1%) relative to the 2021 Census count of 3,199 people. That projection stems from an Estimated Resident Population of 3,409 derived from ABS figures released in June 2025, combined with 42 post-Census validated addresses. Consequently, population density stands at 2,980 persons per square kilometer, positioning the area within the highest quartile across nationally evaluated locations.
The suburb of Park Holme outpaced the broader SA4 region (6.3%) with its 7.1% increase since the 2021 census, establishing itself as a local growth hub. Inbound overseas migration formed the primary catalyst, generating roughly 65.0% of recent population additions. Projections utilize ABS/Geoscience Australia data published in 2024 with a 2022 baseline for SA2 divisions. Where coverage is absent or extends beyond 2032, models incorporate the SA State Government's 2023 release of 2021-based Regional/LGA age projections through a weighted aggregation framework connecting LGA and SA2 levels. Over the 16 years running to 2041, the suburb of Park Holme is forecast to expand by 526 persons based on SA2 aggregations, representing an overall rise of 14.8% and reflecting growth above the national statistical area median.

1,891 residents of Park Holme are employed, from a labour force of 1,967. Unemployment sits at 3.9%, with participation at 67.8%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.1% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 3,066, about 89% 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
AreaSearch statistical aggregations show a skilled workforce with a strong footprint in essential industries, an unemployment level of 3.9%, and an annual employment expansion of 5.9%. By March 2026, employed residents numbered 1,891, while the jobless rate mirrored the 3.8% recorded across Greater Adelaide and labor force participation tracked near the metropolitan level of 66.4%. Home-based work was reported by 8.2% of workers at the Census, although ongoing Covid-19 lockdown influences should be factored into this figure. Local workers are predominantly engaged across health care & social assistance, retail trade, and education & training.
The healthcare and social assistance sector demonstrates distinct regional specialization, capturing 1.3 times the regional level of employment share. In contrast, manufacturing employs 4.1% of working residents, underperforming the wider metropolitan benchmark of 7.0%. Given the discrepancy between resident workers and local workplace headcounts at the Census, this largely residential district provides limited internal employment. Aggregated ABS and SALM metrics analyzed by AreaSearch indicate that across the year leading to March 2026, local employment grew by 5.9% alongside a 5.0% expansion in the workforce, driving a 0.9 percentage points contraction in unemployment. By comparison, Greater Adelaide recorded gains of 4.2% in employment and 4.0% in the labour pool, alongside a 0.2 percentage point drop. National labor projections published in Mar-26 by Jobs and Skills Australia present broader workforce expectations over five-year (6.6%) and ten-year (13.7%) spans. Applying these sectoral trajectories to Park Holme's current industry composition indicates localized employment growth of 7.1% over five years and 14.6% over ten years, representing an illustrative weighted extrapolation that excludes localized demographic 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 — 42 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,199 at the 2021 Census → 3,427 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.
