Detail
In the suburb of Silverdale (NSW), the population is estimated at approximately 6,112 as of Aug 2026, calculated through AreaSearch analysis of updated ABS regional data alongside validated new addresses logged following the Census. Compared to the 4,543 people recorded in the 2021 Census, this demonstrates an expansion of 1,569 people (34.5%). The figure draws on an estimated resident population of 6,111 established by AreaSearch via the June 2025 ABS ERP release, supplemented by 227 validated new addresses identified after the Census. With a density of 126 persons per square kilometer, the locality offers ample living space per capita and capacity for additional residential development.
Surpassing both Greater Sydney and state-level growth of 7.3%, the 34.5% surge in the suburb of Silverdale (NSW) establishes it as a prominent regional growth center. Recent demographic gains were largely propelled by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 72.0% of the overall increase, alongside positive contributions from overseas migration and natural growth. Projections for the suburb of Silverdale (NSW) incorporate ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 figures published in 2024 with a 2022 baseline, supplemented where necessary by 2022 NSW State Government SA2 forecasts based on 2021. Cohort growth rates across these models are applied across all locations for the period covering 2032 to 2041. Over the coming years, population expansion is anticipated to track slightly under the national median, with aggregated SA2 modelling pointing to a rise of 441 persons to 2041, representing a cumulative increase of 7.2% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
564 new dwellings have been approved in Silverdale (NSW) over the past five years, an average of 112 a year. That places the area in the 94th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 18 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 91 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 98% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 63, 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
ABS building approval statistics evaluated by AreaSearch show that Silverdale records roughly 112 residential approvals annually, totaling an estimated 564 approved residences over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 63 recorded during FY-25 to date. Over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), incoming population has averaged 3.6 new residents per year for each constructed home, causing demand to notably outstrip new housing supply, fueling buyer competition and lifting real estate values. Newly built homes carry an average construction value of $529,000. In addition, non-residential activity has seen $3.0 million in commercial building approvals lodged this financial year, underscoring the predominantly residential focus of the market.
Recent residential building activity comprises 98.0% detached dwellings alongside 2.0% townhouses or apartments, preserving the traditional low-density urban fabric tailored toward family living and space. Averaging roughly 98 people per approval, the locality continues its steady development trajectory. According to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly projection, Silverdale is on track to gain 440 residents by 2041. Maintained at ongoing rates, local homebuilding capacity appears well positioned to satisfy emerging demand, offering favorable purchasing conditions and potentially paving the way for expansion beyond projected levels.

Frequently Asked Questions - Infrastructure
Warragamba Dam Raising Project
A proposed project to raise the Warragamba Dam wall by 14m to increase temporary storage capacity for flood mitigation in the Hawkesbury-Nepean Valley. The project has faced significant public and environmental scrutiny, and its status on the NSW Planning Portal is 'Withdrawn', though it was previously declared a Critical State Significant Infrastructure project. Opponents argue it would facilitate development on flood-prone land and impact the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area and Indigenous heritage sites.
Western Sydney Pumped Hydro Project
A proposed 1-gigawatt (GW) pumped hydro energy storage project by ZEN Energy, located on a retired coal industry site near Lake Burragorang. This project aims to provide up to eight continuous hours of 'firming' energy, essential for stabilizing NSW's electricity grid. It is expected to power 500,000 homes and create 1,500 construction jobs, with operations potentially beginning by 2031 if approvals are secured. ZEN Energy's Western Sydney Pumped Hydro aims to repurpose a disused coal washery site near Lake Burragorang, 24 km upstream from Warragamba Dam, with a one-gigawatt / eight-gigawatt-hour capacity.

3,267 residents of Silverdale (NSW) are employed, from a labour force of 3,300. Unemployment sits at 1.0%, with participation at 72.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.0% 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. The working-day population is estimated at 4,947, about 81% 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
Silverdale's workforce exhibits a balanced mix across blue-collar and white-collar occupations, highlighted by strong representation within the building sector and an unemployment rate of only 1.0% according to statistical aggregations from AreaSearch. By March 2026, employed residents reached 3,267, while the local jobless rate sat 3.1% below the 4.1% recorded for Greater Sydney. Labor force participation remains standard at 72.4%, compared to 68.9% across Greater Sydney. Census data indicates that 28.9% of workers operated from home, though this figure was influenced by Covid-19 restrictions. Local employment is concentrated across construction, education & training, along with health care & social assistance.
Workforce participation in construction is particularly pronounced, tracking at 2.4 times the broader regional benchmark. Conversely, professional & technical roles show lower engagement, accounting for 4.3% of workers against 11.5% regionally. Comparing resident workers against the local Census working population indicates a limited supply of jobs situated directly within the area. Analysis of SALM and ABS data, which has been aggregated from wider statistical areas, indicates that over the past twelve months, the labour force shrank by 3.5% while employment dropped by 3.7%, leading to a 0.2 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. In contrast, Greater Sydney experienced employment growth of 1.9% and labour force growth of 1.9%, resulting in a slight decline in unemployment. For additional context regarding future demand in Silverdale, Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from Mar-26 provide useful information. These forecasts span five and ten-year horizons and have been overlaid with local employment data to project growth trends. The national outlook anticipates employment growth of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though these figures vary considerably across different industry sectors. When these sector-specific forecasts are applied to Silverdale's current employment composition, the expectation is that local employment will rise by 6.0% over five years and 12.4% over ten years. It is important to note that this calculation uses a basic weighting method for illustrative purposes only 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 — 227 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (4,543 at the 2021 Census → 6,112 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.
