Sales Detail
Warrawee has an estimated 3,251 residents, up from 3,170 at the 2021 Census — a change of 81 people, or 2.6%. That puts 2,322 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
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Warrawee is estimated to have a population of approximately 3,251, according to AreaSearch's evaluation of broader ABS demographic releases and post-Census address validations. This indicates an addition of 81 people (2.6%) compared to the 3,170 residents recorded in the 2021 Census. Such movement is derived from an estimated resident count of 3,240, calculated via post-Census address checks alongside the ABS ERP release from June 2025. With a resultant density of 2,322 persons per square kilometer, the suburb tracks above the national benchmark evaluated by AreaSearch.
Furthermore, the 2.6% expansion observed since the census sits within 1.9 percentage points of the wider SA3 area (4.5%), reflecting sound underlying growth dynamics. International migration served as virtually the exclusive catalyst for local expansion across recent timeframes. Projections compiled by ABS/Geoscience Australia (issued in 2024 using 2022 baseline figures) are adopted by AreaSearch for SA2 divisions, supplemented where necessary by NSW State Government SA2 forecasts (issued in 2022 using 2021 baseline figures). Cohort-specific growth trajectories from these sources are likewise integrated across all locations for the 2032 to 2041 period. Looking ahead, population gains in the suburb of Warrawee are projected to track slightly below the national statistical median, with aggregated SA2 figures pointing to an addition of 136 persons by 2041, representing a cumulative increase of 3.8% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
Detail
Examining ABS residential approvals mapped from statistical divisions, AreaSearch identifies an annual average of approximately 3 dwellings approved in Warrawee, accumulating to roughly 17 residences across the prior 5 financial years. Throughout FY-25 to date, no building approvals have been logged. In light of local population contraction, incoming residential stock has generally aligned with requirements, providing solid alternatives for purchasers. Furthermore, non-residential building approvals totaling $3.2 million were registered during the current financial year, underlining the dominant residential profile of the locality. Per-capita building activity in Warrawee sits 77.0% below the Greater Sydney regional norm.
Such subdued construction volumes frequently bolster values and buyer interest across existing dwellings. Activity is similarly below the broader Australian standard, illustrating local maturity alongside possible planning restrictions. Recent building permits have consisted exclusively of separate houses, sustaining the low-density neighborhood fabric and appealing to space-seeking buyers. Interestingly, home builders are focusing on detached residences at a higher frequency than the existing housing stock (64.0% at Census), underscoring an enduring appetite for standalone houses notwithstanding broader densification trends. According to the latest quarterly calculations from AreaSearch, demographic forecasts anticipate Warrawee will expand by 125 residents through 2041. Ongoing construction rates correspond well with forthcoming residential requirements, fostering stable market conditions without generating sharp upward price pressure.

The Turramurra Community Hub is a long-running Ku-ring-gai Council urban renewal proposal centred on the 12,300 square metre Ray Street precinct adjacent to Turramurra railway station. The CHROFI-designed masterplan envisages a new library and multi-purpose community building, a town square, parklands, a full-line supermarket, specialty retail, residential apartments and upgraded commuter parking. Council has confirmed it does not have the financial capacity to deliver the masterplan as a single project, with capital costs for the community facilities and public domain works estimated at around 120 million dollars.As a result the project is being progressed in stages, with initial discussions focused on a potential sale of part of the Council owned land to Coles Group to enable an expanded supermarket, specialty shops and housing on the Coles holding. Following a Council resolution in May 2024, staff are conducting a wider feasibility review of the Lindfield, Gordon and Turramurra Hub projects and have assessed the impact of the NSW Transport Oriented Development SEPP on the Hub sites. Subsequent stages delivering the library, community centre and parklands on Council land remain subject to future funding.
1,672 residents of Warrawee are employed, from a labour force of 1,724. Unemployment sits at 3.0%, with participation at 63.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.7% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,786, about 86% 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
Warrawee is characterized by an exceptionally qualified talent pool, featuring prominent concentration in tech disciplines, a modest 3.0% unemployment rate, and a 0.8% rise in employment over the preceding twelve months, according to AreaSearch's statistical aggregation. By March 2026, employed locals numbered 1,672, with joblessness tracking 1.1% below the 4.1% recorded for Greater Sydney, although the local participation rate of 63.7% trails the regional figure of 68.9%. Census records show that 65.4% of employed persons conducted their duties from home, an outcome potentially shaped by Covid-19 restrictions. The primary sectors providing employment to local residents are professional & technical, health care & social assistance, alongside finance & insurance.
Professional & technical roles represent a notable local specialization, exhibiting a concentration 1.6 times that of the regional benchmark. Conversely, building trades maintain a minimal footprint, accounting for 4.8% of workers against 8.6% across the wider region. Given the balance between Census working population and resident counts, the largely residential area provides limited employment opportunities within its borders. Analysis of SALM and ABS data from broader statistical areas, conducted by AreaSearch for the year ending March 2026, indicates that employment rose by 0.8% while the labour force grew by 0.7%, leading to a 0.1 percentage point decline in unemployment. In contrast, Greater Sydney experienced employment growth of 1.9% and labour force growth of 1.9%, with only a marginal reduction in unemployment. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from Mar-26 provide additional perspective on anticipated future demand in Warrawee. These projections span five and ten-year intervals and have been overlaid onto the local employment profile to estimate growth trajectories. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, sectoral growth rates vary considerably. When these industry-specific forecasts are applied to Warrawee's employment composition, local employment is expected to rise by 7.7% over five years and 15.2% over ten years. This calculation represents a straightforward weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not incorporate localized 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. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (3,170 at the 2021 Census → 3,251 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.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (SAL14183). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
