Sales Detail
Tecoma has an estimated 2,096 residents, up from 2,064 at the 2021 Census — a change of 32 people, or 1.6%. That puts 1,158 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 demographic figures compiled by the ABS for the surrounding region, combined with address records verified by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Tecoma has an estimated 2,096 residents as of May 2026. This represents a gain of 32 people (1.6%) relative to the 2,064 individuals recorded in the 2021 Census. This adjustment stems from an estimated resident count of 2,095 calculated by AreaSearch, which drew on the ABS June 2025 release of ERP statistics alongside 7 validated new addresses registered since the Census date. With these numbers, the suburb of Tecoma has a density of 1,158 persons per square kilometer, which aligns closely with typical values observed across regions analyzed by AreaSearch.
The 1.6% Census-to-date growth rate in the suburb of Tecoma lags the broader SA3 region (3.5%) by 1.9 percentage points, yet it remains competitive. Natural increase was the main driver of this expansion, accounting for roughly 56.00000000000001% of the overall population growth during recent times. Projections for each SA2 zone published in 2024 by the ABS and Geoscience Australia, using 2022 as a baseline, have been adopted by AreaSearch. In instances where SA2 projections were unavailable, figures were derived from the 2023 Victoria State Government Regional/LGA projections, using a weighted aggregation method to map LGA-level growth to SA2 boundaries. Age cohort growth trends from these computations were also applied to all areas for the period spanning 2032 to 2041. Under this modeling framework, the suburb of Tecoma is anticipated to experience a net population reduction of 17 persons by 2041. Despite this overall contraction, some age groups are set to expand, most notably the 75 to 84 cohort, which is projected to grow by 71 people. Additional details are available in the section detailing age demographics.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
23 new dwellings have been approved in Tecoma over the past five years, an average of 4 a year. That is 2.2 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 4, broadly in line with 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
According to AreaSearch analysis of ABS building approvals mapped to local boundaries, Tecoma averages approximately 4 residential approvals each year. This totals an estimated 23 new homes approved over the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, with 4 approvals logged during the current FY-26 period. Because the population has decreased recently, this incoming housing supply has likely matched local requirements, providing adequate options for prospective purchasers. The average expected construction value of these new dwellings stands at $575,000, indicating that developers are focusing on higher-end builds in the premium tier.
Meanwhile, commercial building approvals have reached $465,000 during this financial year, which highlights the area's primary residential focus. Tecoma's rate of construction per capita is roughly 56% of the level observed across Greater Melbourne, placing it in the 11th percentile among all locations evaluated across the country. This lower rate restricts options for prospective buyers and helps sustain demand for established properties. This volume also trails the national benchmark, reflecting the mature, built-out character of the suburb and suggesting possible planning constraints. Furthermore, all recent building permits have been for standalone houses, preserving the low-density suburban aesthetic and appealing to buyers seeking space. An average of 1395 people per dwelling approval confirms that this is an exceptionally mature residential market. Faced with projections of a stable or contracting population, Tecoma is likely to see reduced housing demand, which should benefit buyers.

1,260 residents of Tecoma are employed, from a labour force of 1,308. Unemployment sits at 3.7%, with participation at 74.3%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 1,579, about 75% 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
The workforce in Tecoma is highly educated and includes strong representation in essential services. The unemployment rate stands at 3.7%, while estimated employment growth over the past year is 1.6%, according to AreaSearch aggregation of statistical area data. As of March 2026, 1,260 residents are employed, with an unemployment rate of 1.1% below Greater Melbourne's rate of 4.8%. Workforce participation is fairly standard at 74.3%, compared to Greater Melbourne's 70.2%. Census responses indicate that a high 34.5% of residents were found to work from home, though Covid-19 lockdown impacts should be considered.
The primary employment sectors for local residents are education & training, health care & social assistance, and construction. The education & training sector exhibits a strong local specialization, employing a share of the workforce that is 1.6 times the regional average. Conversely, transport, postal & warehousing accounts for only 2.3% of local employment, which is lower than the Greater Melbourne share of 5.2%. A comparison of the resident workforce against locally based jobs suggests that this predominantly residential suburb offers limited employment opportunities within its own borders. Analysis of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated by AreaSearch shows that over the 12-month period, local employment grew by 1.6% while the labor force expanded by 2.1%, causing a 0.5 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. By comparison, Greater Melbourne recorded employment growth of 2.1%, labor force expansion of 2.3%, and a 0.2 percentage point rise in unemployment. National employment projections released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 provide a useful benchmark for local demand. These five-year and ten-year national forecasts have been applied to the local workforce composition to model potential trends. Globally, national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though individual sector trajectories vary. Applying these industry-specific projections to the local employment mix yields an estimated local job growth of 6.3% over five years and 13.1% over ten years, representing a simple weighted extrapolation that does not incorporate local population forecasts.

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 — 7 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (2,064 at the 2021 Census → 2,096 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 (SAL22476). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
