Chart Color Schemes
This analysis uses ABS Statistical Areas Level 2 (SA2) boundaries, which can materially differ from Suburbs and Localities (SAL) even when sharing similar names.
SA2 boundaries are defined by the Australian Bureau of Statistics and are designed to represent communities for statistical reporting (e.g., census and ERP).
Suburbs and Localities (SAL) represent commonly-used suburb/locality names (postal-style areas) and may use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Sales Detail
Bellerive - Rosny has an estimated 6,583 residents, up from 6,522 at the 2021 Census. That puts 1,395 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, the resident count in Bellerive - Rosny stands at approximately 6,583 as of Aug 2026. This figure represents an addition of 61 people (0.9%) compared with the 2021 Census tally of 6,522 people. This demographic movement is derived from the ABS estimated resident population figure of 6,561 recorded as of June 2025 alongside 57 validated new addresses registered following the Census. With this population base, the local density reaches 1,394 persons per square kilometer, outperforming the benchmark observed across national locations evaluated by AreaSearch.
Inbound overseas migration served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 95.2% of the locality's overall population additions across recent reporting intervals. Projections published jointly by the ABS and Geoscience Australia in 2024 (using 2022 as their starting baseline) have been applied by AreaSearch across SA2 locations. In instances where SA2 regions lack direct coverage, as well as to evaluate post-2032 age group distributions, the Tasmania State Government's Regional/LGA projections (published in 2022 with a 2021 base year) are incorporated via weighted aggregation converting LGA figures to the SA2 geographic boundary. Looking ahead, population expansion is projected to track within the lower quartile of statistical areas across the country, with the community expected to gain 258 persons by 2041 according to current annual ERP figures, translating to an overall growth rate of 3.6% throughout the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
77 new dwellings have been approved in Bellerive - Rosny over the past five years, an average of 15 a year. That is 2.3 approvals per 1,000 residents. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Residential building approvals across Bellerive - Rosny have averaged approximately 15 dwellings each year, totaling 77 homes authorized over the course of the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26). Incoming resident numbers averaged 1.1 new residents per year per approved dwelling across the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), indicating a balanced supply environment and steady property market conditions; more recently over the past 2 financial years, this metric shifted to -1.3 people per dwelling, pointing to an even healthier balance between supply and demand. Approved residential projects average $489,000 in construction value—exceeding regional averages and highlighting an emphasis on higher-standard builds.
Meanwhile, commercial construction activity saw $25.6 million in commercial approvals logged during this financial year, showing moderate commercial investment. Compared with Greater Hobart, overall building activity in Bellerive - Rosny remains subdued, tracking 55.0% below regional average per person. Such restrained construction volumes typically bolster valuations and demand for existing houses. Activity is similarly below the broader Australian standard, reflecting the suburb's established character alongside potential urban planning constraints. Recent development approvals comprise 53.0% detached dwellings and 47.0% townhouses or apartments, demonstrating an increasing provision of medium-density formats that diversify price points between conventional standalone houses and lower-cost alternatives. This diverges substantially from the existing dwelling stock (where 84.0% houses currently feature), highlighting scarcer greenfield sites, evolving household preferences, and the demand for more varied, accessible housing. With roughly 409 people per dwelling approval, Bellerive - Rosny demonstrates a mature, built-out residential environment. Longer-term forecasts indicate that Bellerive - Rosny will gain 236 residents by 2041 relative to the most recent quarterly calculation from AreaSearch. Provided current construction volumes persist, newly delivered residential supply is positioned to absorb future demand comfortably, supporting favorable buyer conditions and potentially facilitating expansion beyond baseline demographic expectations.

3,342 residents of Bellerive - Rosny are employed, from a labour force of 3,430. Unemployment sits at 2.6%, with participation at 61.1%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 7,280, about 111% of the resident population, so the area draws in more workers than it sends out. 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 local labor market in Bellerive - Rosny is characterized by high educational attainment, substantial concentration in essential service sectors, an unemployment rate of merely 2.6%, and consistent job numbers over the preceding twelve months. As of March 2026, employed residents numbered 3,342, with joblessness sitting 1.8% below the Greater Hobart benchmark of 4.4%, while the workforce participation rate tracks slightly lower at 61.1% compared to Greater Hobart's 63.7%. Census findings indicated that a modest 10.3% of workers operated from home, though this coincided with broader Covid-19 health restrictions. The primary employment sectors for local workers include health care & social assistance, education & training, and public administration & safety.
In particular, public administration & safety shows a distinct concentration locally, employing workers at a rate 1.2 times the regional level. Conversely, manufacturing comprises a smaller portion of the local workforce at only 4.1% of Bellerive - Rosny's workforce against 5.2% in Greater Hobart. A ratio of 0.7 workers for each resident at the time of the Census underscores a comparatively strong volume of localized employment opportunities. According to AreaSearch evaluations of SALM and ABS figures, the period ending March 2026 saw the labour force grow by 0.1% alongside a 0.1% drop in employment, which pushed unemployment up by 0.3 percentage points. In contrast, Greater Hobart experienced a 0.1% reduction in employment and a 0.2% rise in the labour force, resulting in a 0.3 percentage point increase in unemployment. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment outlooks for Mar-26 provide additional context regarding potential future demand in Bellerive - Rosny. These forecasts span five and ten-year intervals and have been overlaid with the local employment composition to project growth trends. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, sector-specific growth rates vary considerably. When these industry-specific estimates are applied to Bellerive - Rosny's employment structure, local employment is anticipated to rise by 6.8% over five years and 14.0% over ten years. This calculation represents a basic weighting extrapolation intended 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 — 57 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (6,522 at the 2021 Census → 6,583 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.
