Tea Tree Gully has an estimated 3,804 residents, up from 3,499 at the 2021 Census — a change of 305 people, or 8.7%. Growth has averaged 1.7% a year over five years. Overseas migration accounts for 86.0% of that increase. That puts 799 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
According to evaluations of ABS population adjustments for the wider region, alongside updated addresses verified by AreaSearch post-Census, the suburb of Tea Tree Gully has a projected population of approximately 3,804 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 305 individuals (8.7%) relative to the 2021 Census, which documented a population of 3,499 individuals. The shift is calculated from a resident population of 3,791, calculated by AreaSearch using the most recent ERP data from the ABS (June 2025) plus an extra 25 validated new addresses since the Census date.
This population size corresponds to a density ratio of 799 persons per square kilometer, which aligns closely with the typical figures observed across locations analyzed by AreaSearch. The 8.7% expansion in the suburb of Tea Tree Gully since the 2021 census outpaced the SA3 area (4.1%) as well as the state, positioning it as a leading growth locality in the region. Population expansion in the area was mostly fueled by overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 86.0% of the total population gains in recent times. AreaSearch utilizes ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, which were published in 2024 with 2022 as the baseline year. For SA2 areas excluded from this dataset, and for the years after 2032, the SA State Government's Regional/LGA projections sorted by age brackets, published in 2023 and based on 2021 data, are implemented with refinements made using a weighted aggregation method of population increases from LGA to SA2 scales. Looking at forward-looking demographic projections, a population rise slightly below the median of statistical districts evaluated by AreaSearch is anticipated, with the area projected to expand by 328 persons to 2041 using consolidated SA2-level forecasts, showing a total rise of 8.3% over the 16 years.

2,020 residents of Tea Tree Gully are employed, from a labour force of 2,070. Unemployment sits at 2.4%, with participation at 64.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.5% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 3,183, about 84% 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
Tea Tree Gully possesses a qualified labor force with strong representation in key service industries, an unemployment rate of only 2.4%, and an estimated job growth of 2.0% over the previous year, according to aggregated statistical district data compiled by AreaSearch. In March 2026, 2,020 local residents were employed, while the jobless rate was 1.4% lower than the Greater Adelaide level of 3.8%, and the participation rate was slightly below average (64.6% relative to 66.6% in Greater Adelaide). Census responses indicated that a modest 9.7% of residents worked from their homes, though this should be interpreted alongside the effects of Covid-19 lock-downs.
The primary employment fields for residents are healthcare & social assistance, construction, and education & training. The locality displays a clear specialization in construction, where the employment concentration is 1.3 times the regional standard. Conversely, healthcare & social assistance is underrepresented, employing only 15.9% of the workforce in Tea Tree Gully compared to 17.7% throughout Greater Adelaide. The district seems to present restricted local employment prospects, as shown by comparing the census working population to the resident population. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS data, aggregated from broader statistical areas, the 12-month period saw employment increasing by 2.0% alongside labour force increasing by 2.2%, resulting in unemployment rise by 0.2 percentage points. This compares to Greater Adelaide, where employment grew by 4.2%, labour force expanded 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 Tea Tree Gully. 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 Tea Tree Gully's employment mix suggests local employment should increase by 6.5% over five years and 13.5% 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 — 25 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (3,499 at the 2021 Census → 3,804 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.
