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
Terrey Hills has an estimated 2,962 residents, down from 3,142 at the 2021 Census — a change of 180 people, or 5.7%. The population has thinned by an average 1.4% a year over five years, slower than 99% of areas nationally. That puts 351 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 research conducted by AreaSearch on ABS demographic updates for the surrounding region alongside post-Census address verification, the suburb of Terrey Hills is estimated to have a population of 2,962 in May 2026. This represents a decline of 180 residents (5.7%) from the 2021 Census, which recorded 3,142 individuals. The calculation relies on a resident count of 2,962, determined by AreaSearch through analyzing the June 2025 ABS Estimated Resident Population release and adding 5 validated new addresses since the Census. This count translates to a density of 350 persons per square kilometer, indicating low density and potential scope for future expansion.
Overseas migration served as the primary contributor to local growth, acting as the sole source of demographic gains lately. Projections for the suburb of Terrey Hills are based on 2024 ABS and Geoscience Australia datasets using 2022 as their starting point, supplemented by 2022 NSW State Government projections mapping from a 2021 baseline where necessary. Age-specific growth trends from these collections are projected forward to the years 2032 through 2041. Future expectations place the suburb of Terrey Hills in the lower quartile of national growth tables, with aggregated regional figures pointing to an addition of 30 residents by 2041, representing a long-term expansion of 1.0% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
Detail
Analysis of building statistics indicates that the suburb of Terrey Hills averages approximately 2 residential building approvals annually, translating to 11 authorized properties during the last 5 financial years. Thus far in FY-26, 1 approval has been logged. Because the population has contracted, this pace of construction has likely matched local needs to give home buyers adequate options, with new homes registering an average value of $2,669,000 to show developers targeting affluent buyers with premium builds. Furthermore, commercial ventures worth $12.3 million have secured approval this financial year, pointing to consistent business investment.
In comparison to the broader Greater Sydney region, building approvals in the suburb of Terrey Hills are extremely low, running 76.0% below the metropolitan per-capita average. Such low levels of new supply typically support valuations and bolster demand for existing housing stock. Construction rates also sit below the national benchmark, highlighting the established profile of the suburb of Terrey Hills and hinting at tight zoning regulations. Additionally, recent projects consist entirely of standalone houses, reinforcing the low-density character of the area and drawing purchasers looking for space. The ratio of 5959 people per single dwelling approval highlights the quiet, slow-paced development landscape. Long-range forecasts indicate the suburb of Terrey Hills will increase its resident count by 30 people by 2041, according to recent quarterly estimates. Given ongoing construction trends, the volume of incoming housing should comfortably satisfy local demand, maintaining positive conditions for home purchasers and potentially allowing for population gains that outpace current expectations.

1,547 residents of Terrey Hills are employed, from a labour force of 1,602. Unemployment sits at 3.4%, with participation at 63.9%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.0% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,654, about 90% 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
A highly qualified labor force characterizes the suburb of Terrey Hills, with strong representation in professional services, a low unemployment rate of 3.4%, and an estimated job growth rate of 1.2% over the prior year. In March 2026, 1,547 citizens were employed, with the jobless rate sitting 0.7% below the Greater Sydney average of 4.1%, while participation in the workforce is relatively weak at 63.9% compared to the metropolitan average of 69.1%. Census records show a substantial 46.0% of the working population worked from home, though this may reflect temporary pandemic restrictions.
The principal employment fields for residents are construction, professional and technical services, and health care and social assistance. The local workforce is highly concentrated in construction, representing 1.5 times the regional average. By contrast, transport, postal and warehousing is underrepresented, employing only 2.9% of workers compared to the Sydney average of 5.3%. A comparison of the Census working population against resident numbers indicates that this highly residential locality offers limited local job opportunities. Based on local data aggregates, the prior 12-month period saw employment rise by 1.2% while the active labor force expanded by 1.6%, pushing the unemployment rate up by 0.4 percentage points. This diverged from Greater Sydney, which experienced a 1.9% rise in employment, a 1.9% increase in the labor force, and a minor drop in joblessness. National employment forecasts from May-25 offer further context regarding future labor demand. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce structure to model future employment paths. Locally, employment is projected to grow by 7.0% over five years and 14.0% over ten years, based on national forecasts of 6.6% and 13.7% growth over those respective periods.

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 — 5 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (3,142 at the 2021 Census → 2,962 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.
