Rossmore (NSW) has an estimated 2,634 residents, up from 2,241 at the 2021 Census — a change of 393 people, or 17.5%. Growth has averaged 0.9% a year over five years, faster than 88% of areas nationally. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 83.0% of that increase.

Detail
According to ABS population updates scaled to the region alongside AreaSearch address validations, the population of the suburb of Rossmore (NSW) is estimated to be approximately 2,634 as of May 2026. This represents an addition of 393 individuals (17.5%) compared to the 2021 Census, which recorded 2,241 residents. This shift is calculated from a resident base of 2,225 estimated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 ERP release, with 1 validated new address added since the Census. This population level translates to 161 persons per square kilometer, indicating low density and potential for expansion.
The 17.5% growth rate since the 2021 census outpaced the state average of 7.1% and the Greater Sydney region, establishing the area as a local growth leader. Population increases were mostly driven by interstate arrivals, who accounted for roughly 83.0% of the overall gains, though natural growth and overseas immigration also made positive contributions. Projections utilize ABS and Geoscience Australia data from the 2024 release using 2022 as a base, supplemented by NSW Government SA2 projections from 2022 with a 2021 base where required. Growth rates for specific age groups are projected forward to the 2032 to 2041 period. Future estimates suggest the suburb of Rossmore (NSW) will experience rapid growth that ranks in the top 10 percent nationwide, with the population expected to increase by 2,679 persons by 2041, representing a total expansion of 86.2% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
24 new dwellings have been approved in Rossmore (NSW) over the past five years, an average of 4 a year. That places the area in the 52nd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 2 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 18, running ahead of 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
Based on building approvals data from the ABS, Rossmore has seen an average of roughly 4 new home approvals per year, totaling 24 residences over the previous 5 financial years. For FY-26 to date, 17 approvals have been logged. With an average of 3.9 new residents for every completed home between FY-21 and FY-25, construction levels are failing to match demand, which typically drives buyer competition and prices upward. Newly approved homes have an average estimated construction cost of $458,000, which is moderately higher than the regional average and suggests a focus on higher quality builds.
Furthermore, $154,000 in commercial approvals have been registered during this financial year, representing very quiet commercial building activity. When compared against Greater Sydney, Rossmore displays a low level of building activity, sitting 89.0% below the metropolitan average on a per-capita basis. While this constrained supply generally supports demand and valuations for existing properties, construction has picked up recently. This rate of development is also below the national average, indicating a mature market and potential planning barriers. Recent approvals have consisted entirely of detached homes, maintaining the low-density profile of the area which tends to attract buyers seeking larger blocks. With roughly 276 people for each new approval, the market is undergoing a transition phase. Projections indicate that Rossmore will add 2,270 residents by 2041 based on the most recent quarterly estimate from AreaSearch. Should current construction rates persist, the supply of homes may fail to keep pace with this influx, which could intensify competition among buyers and support stronger capital appreciation.

641 residents of Rossmore (NSW) are employed, from a labour force of 659. Unemployment sits at 2.7%, with participation at 37.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.7% 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. 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 displays a mix of white-collar and blue-collar roles, with construction showing strong representation, while the unemployment rate is very low at 2.7%. As of March 2026, there are 641 employed residents. The local unemployment rate sits 1.4% below the Greater Sydney average of 4.1%, whereas workforce participation is significantly lower at 37.0% compared to 69.1% across Greater Sydney. Census data indicates that 36.4% of working residents worked from home, though this figure was likely influenced by pandemic lockdown measures. The primary sectors employing local residents are construction, agriculture, forestry & fishing, and retail trade.
The area displays a strong specialization in agriculture, forestry & fishing, with its share of employment reaching 24.2 times the metropolitan average. Conversely, health care & social assistance is underrepresented at 6.8% of the workforce compared to 14.1% regionally. Given the difference between the number of local jobs and the resident working population, this residential enclave provides limited employment opportunities within its own borders. Based on SALM and ABS data, the local workforce shrank by 22.2% alongside a 22.5% reduction in employment during the year leading up to March 2026, which led to a 0.4 percentage point increase in unemployment. This run of contraction occurred despite Greater Sydney recording a 1.9% rise in employment, a 1.9% expansion of the labor force, and a slight decrease in unemployment. National forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia published in May-25 project a 6.6% rise in total employment over five years and a 13.7% increase over ten years. Applying these industry-specific national trends to the local employment mix suggests Rossmore could see employment growth of 5.7% over five years and 11.8% over ten years, assuming a simple weighted extrapolation that does not account for 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 — 1 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (2,241 at the 2021 Census → 2,634 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.
