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.

Sales Detail
Semaphore Park has an estimated 4,391 residents, down from 4,541 at the 2021 Census — a change of 150 people, or 3.3%. The population has thinned by an average 0.6% a year over five years, slower than 98% of areas nationally. That puts 2,299 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
Based on analysis of ABS population updates for the broader area, and new addresses validated by AreaSearch since the Census Semaphore Park's population is estimated at around 4,391 as of May 2026. This reflects a decrease of 150 people (3.3%) since the 2021 Census, which reported a population of 4,541 people. The change is inferred from the resident population of 4,385, estimated by AreaSearch following examination of the latest ERP data release by the ABS (June 2025) and an additional 27 validated new addresses since the Census date. This level of population equates to a density ratio of 2,299 persons per square kilometer, which is above the average seen across national locations assessed by AreaSearch.
Population growth for the area was primarily driven by overseas migration that contributed approximately 54.0% of overall population gains during recent periods. AreaSearch is adopting ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, as released in 2024 with 2022 as the base year. For any SA2 areas not covered by this data, and for years post-2032, the SA State Government's Regional/LGA projections by age category, released in 2023 and based on 2021 data, are adopted with adjustments made employing a method of weighted aggregation of population growth from LGA to SA2 levels. Considering the projected demographic shifts, a population increase just below the median of statistical areas analysed by AreaSearch is expected, with the area expected to grow by 464 persons to 2041 based on aggregated SA2-level projections, reflecting reflecting an increase of 10.4% in total over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
99 new dwellings have been approved in Semaphore Park over the past five years, an average of 19 a year. That is 4.4 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 6, 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
Based on AreaSearch analysis of ABS building approval numbers, allocated from statistical area data, Semaphore Park has seen around 19 new homes approved annually, totalling an estimated 99 homes over the past 5 financial years. So far in FY-26, 6 approvals have been recorded. With population declining over recent years, development activity has been adequate in relative terms, a positive for buyers, while new properties are constructed at an average value of $510,000, demonstrating a developer focus on the premium segment with upmarket properties. Additionally, $15.3 million in commercial development approvals have been recorded this financial year, demonstrating moderate levels of commercial development.
Compared to Greater Adelaide, Semaphore Park records roughly half the building activity per person while it places among the 17th percentile of areas assessed nationally, meaning more limited choices for buyers, supporting demand for existing homes. Recent construction comprises 73.0% detached houses and 27.0% medium and high-density housing, preserving the area's suburban nature with an emphasis on detached housing attracting space-seeking buyers. New construction favours detached housing more than current patterns suggest (54.0% at Census), demonstrating ongoing robust demand for family homes.At around 883 people per approval, Semaphore Park shows a mature, established area. Population forecasts indicate Semaphore Park will gain 458 residents through to 2041 (from the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate). At current development rates, new housing supply should comfortably meet demand, providing good conditions for buyers and potentially supporting growth beyond current population projections.

2,072 residents of Semaphore Park are employed, from a labour force of 2,161. Unemployment sits at 4.1%, with participation at 58.9%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.4% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 3,460, about 79% 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
Semaphore Park possesses a skilled workforce, with essential services sectors well represented, an unemployment rate of 4.1%, and 5.0% in estimated employment growth over the past year, based on AreaSearch aggregation of statistical area data. As of March 2026, 2,072 residents are in work while the unemployment rate is 0.3% above Greater Adelaide's rate of 3.8%, and workforce participation lags significantly (58.9% compared to Greater Adelaide's 66.6%). Based on Census responses, a low 12.3% of residents were found to work from home, though Covid-19 lockdown impacts should be considered. Leading employment industries among residents comprise health care & social assistance, construction, and education & training.
The area demonstrates particularly notable concentration in construction, with employment levels at 1.2 times the regional average. Meanwhile, health care & social assistance has limited presence with 15.1% employment compared to 17.7% regionally. The predominantly residential area appears to offer limited employment opportunities locally, as indicated by the count of Census working population vs resident population. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS data, aggregated from broader statistical areas, during the year to March 2026, employment levels increased by 5.0% and labour force increased by 3.1%, causing the unemployment rate to fall by 1.7 percentage points. This contrasts with Greater Adelaide, where employment rose by 4.2%, the labour force grew by 4.0%, and unemployment fell 0.2 percentage points. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from May-25 can offer further insight into potential future demand within Semaphore Park. These projections, covering five and ten-year periods, have been mapped against the local employment profile to estimate growth patterns. While national employment is forecast to expand by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates differ significantly between industry sectors. Applying these industry-specific projections to Semaphore Park's employment mix suggests local employment should increase by 6.4% over five years and 13.4% over ten years (please note this is a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not take into account localised 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 — 27 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (4,541 at the 2021 Census → 4,391 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 (SAL41330). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
