Detail
In the suburb of Soldiers Point, the estimated population stands at approximately 1,558 as of Aug 2026, according to AreaSearch evaluations combining broader ABS demographic releases with validated post-Census addresses. Compared to the 1,564 individuals recorded in the 2021 Census, this indicates a small reduction of 6 people (0.4%). This figure builds on an estimated resident population of 1,555 derived from the ABS ERP data from June 2025 alongside 76 validated new addresses identified following the Census. The suburb of Soldiers Point has a population density of 1,429 persons per square kilometer, which exceeds national benchmarks analyzed by AreaSearch.
Inbound international migration served as the primary source of demographic expansion, accounting for roughly 98.0% of recent population additions. Population projections for the suburb of Soldiers Point utilize 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 modeling with a 2022 base year, supplemented by 2022 NSW State Government SA2 forecasts based on 2021 where necessary, applying age-specific rates across all areas between 2032 and 2041. Over the coming years, demographic growth in the suburb of Soldiers Point is anticipated to track slightly under the non-metropolitan median.

Frequently Asked Questions - Population
120 new dwellings have been approved in Soldiers Point over the past five years, an average of 24 a year. That is 16.3 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 25 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 64% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 8, 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
Residential construction metrics compiled by AreaSearch from ABS figures show Soldiers Point averaging approximately 24 residential approvals annually, yielding an estimated 120 homes across the preceding 5 financial years, with 8 approvals logged to date during FY-25. Because local population growth added no new residents per year per dwelling constructed between FY-21 and FY-25, residential supply is comfortably keeping pace with or exceeding local demand, expanding buyer choice and paving the way for potential population expansion beyond baseline expectations. With an average construction cost of $792,000 per home, building activity remains firmly oriented toward the high-end residential market, while commercial approvals of $9.0 million this financial year reflect modest non-residential activity.
Per capita building activity in Soldiers Point outpaces the Rest of NSW by 165.0%, providing wide options for prospective buyers despite a recent cooling in approval velocity. This pace remains well above countrywide figures, highlighting solid developer engagement. The composition of new residential building includes 64.0% detached houses alongside 36.0% attached dwellings, delivering a balanced selection spanning compact entry-level dwellings to expansive residences. A ratio of roughly 156 people per approval underlines the low-density nature of the area. According to current population projections, Soldiers Point is on track to add 107 residents by 2041 relative to the most recent quarterly estimate from AreaSearch. Prevailing residential building rates suggest upcoming supply will easily satisfy local demand, creating advantageous purchasing conditions and potentially enabling demographic growth to exceed anticipated targets.

614 residents of Soldiers Point are employed, from a labour force of 631. Unemployment sits at 2.7%, with participation at 45.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.2% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 1,357, about 87% 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
Soldiers Point maintains a capable local workforce shaped by strong representation in the hospitality and tourism sectors, featuring a low unemployment rate of 2.7% and a 1.2% rise in employment over the preceding twelve months according to AreaSearch aggregated data. As of March 2026614 residents are employed, and local unemployment sits 1.4% below the 4.1% observed across Regional NSW, though labor force participation remains lower at 45.5% versus 60.6% regionally. In the Census, 29.8% of workers reported working from home, a figure potentially influenced by Covid-19 restrictions. The primary employment sectors for local residents are accommodation & food, construction, and retail trade.
Industry concentration is particularly heavy in accommodation & food, where resident participation reaches 1.8 times the regional benchmark. Conversely, health care & social assistance accounts for 11.6% of employment, below the 16.9% recorded across the region. Comparisons between local working and resident numbers indicate that this predominantly residential community generates relatively few jobs within its borders. AreaSearch evaluations of ABS and SALM data show that over the year ending March 2026, local employment grew by 1.2% while the labor pool expanded by 0.8%, reducing the unemployment rate by 0.3 percentage points, whereas Regional NSW recorded a 0.9% drop in employment, a 0.4% contraction in the labor force, and a 0.5 percentage point rise in unemployment. National outlooks from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 project nationwide job growth of 6.6% across five years and 13.7% across ten years, with performance varying by sector. When mapped to the industry distribution of Soldiers Point, these benchmarks indicate potential local employment gains of 6.2% over five years and 12.8% over ten years (calculated via simple weighting for illustrative purposes, excluding localized population adjustments).

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 — 76 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (1,564 at the 2021 Census → 1,558 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.
