Detail
Based on demographic assessments of ABS regional updates and newly confirmed address records since the Census by AreaSearch, Quakers Hill has an estimated population of approximately 28,610 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 717 residents (2.6%) from the 27,893 individuals documented during the 2021 Census. This adjustment is calculated from a base resident population of 28,504, calculated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 ERP release, combined with an additional 117 verified addresses established after the Census. This population level translates to a density of 3,123 residents per square kilometer, placing the suburb in the top national quartile of places monitored by AreaSearch.
The primary driver of this demographic expansion was international migration, which accounted for approximately 62.0% of the overall population rise in recent times. AreaSearch incorporates SA2-level demographic projections from ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024 using 2022 as the baseline, supplemented by 2022 NSW State Government projections utilizing a 2021 baseline for locations where federal data is unavailable. Age cohort growth rates derived from these datasets are projected forward for the period from 2032 to 2041. Future expectations suggest that demographic growth will track slightly under the national median, with aggregated projections indicating the area will expand by 2,707 individuals by 2041, representing a total gain of 9.1% across the 16 years.

Detail
According to AreaSearch evaluations of local building approvals data from the ABS, Quakers Hill has averaged about 82 residential development approvals annually, representing approximately 413 new homes over the last 5 financial years. In the current FY-26 period, 29 building approvals have been registered. With historical data showing only 0.3 added residents yearly for each finished dwelling between FY-21 and FY-25, residential supply is keeping pace with or exceeding local demand, enhancing options for buyers and allowing for potential population increases above forecast levels, with new residential projects averaging an expected construction cost of $323,000.
Additionally, commercial development approvals have reached $11.1 million this financial year, showing moderate commercial investment. Recent residential building approvals consist of 60.0% standalone houses and 40.0% medium to high-density dwellings, providing a diverse mix of housing options across different price levels, ranging from larger family residences to more compact, affordable layouts. With a ratio of approximately 704 residents for each residential approval, Quakers Hill shows the characteristics of an established, mature market. According to projections based on the latest quarterly assessments from AreaSearch, Quakers Hill is expected to add 2,601 residents by 2041. Assuming the current pace of construction continues, the supply of new dwellings will easily accommodate this demand, sustaining favorable conditions for purchasers and potentially enabling growth to exceed current forecasts.

17,006 residents of Quakers Hill are employed, from a labour force of 17,508. Unemployment sits at 2.9%, with participation at 78.2%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.6% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 21,447, about 75% 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 local workforce in Quakers Hill is highly educated, featuring a strong contingent in professional fields, an unemployment rate of only 2.9%, and a modest 0.6% expansion in employment over the previous year based on AreaSearch statistical aggregations. By March 2026, the employed resident population reached 17,006, with the unemployment rate tracking 1.3% lower than the 4.1% recorded across Greater Sydney, and labor participation reaching an elevated 78.2% compared to the regional benchmark of 69.1%. Census records indicate that 43.5% of the working population operated from home, though this figure was likely influenced by pandemic containment measures.
The primary employment sectors for local residents are healthcare & social assistance, retail, and professional, scientific & technical services. The suburb exhibits a high concentration of workers in transport, postal & warehousing, at 1.4 times the regional proportion. In contrast, professional & technical roles are underrepresented at 8.5% compared to the Greater Sydney average of 11.5%. Given the comparison between the resident workforce and locally available jobs in the Census, this predominantly residential community offers relatively few local employment positions. AreaSearch evaluations of SALM and ABS statistics for the year ending March 2026 show that local employment grew by 0.6% and the total labor force expanded by 0.5%, resulting in a 0.1 percentage point reduction in the unemployment rate. Over the same timeframe, Greater Sydney recorded employment and labor force growth of 1.9% and 1.9% respectively, with a nominal reduction in unemployment. National projections from Jobs and Skills Australia released in May-25 provide further context for future employment patterns in Quakers Hill over five and ten-year horizons. Nationally, employment is predicted to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though these trajectories vary widely across different sectors. Applying these industry-specific growth projections to the local employment structure suggests that Quakers Hill's workforce would grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, assuming a direct weighted distribution without adjustments for local population changes.

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 — 117 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (27,893 at the 2021 Census → 28,610 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 (SAL13299). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
