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
Beaumaris has an estimated 14,531 residents, up from 14,021 at the 2021 Census — a change of 510 people, or 3.6%. That puts 2,434 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 from AreaSearch, the resident count of Beaumaris stands at roughly 14,531 as of Aug 2026. This represents an expansion of 510 people (3.6%) relative to the 2021 Census tally of 14,021 people. Such growth is deduced from the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population figure of 14,486, alongside 83 validated new addresses recorded following the Census. Consequently, the local population density reaches 2,434 persons per square kilometer, ranking the suburb within the highest quartile among Australian areas evaluated by AreaSearch. Furthermore, the local 3.6% post-census growth rate trails the broader SA3 benchmark (6.0%) by 2.4 percentage points, highlighting sound underlying growth drivers.
Recent population expansion has been predominantly underpinned by overseas migration, serving as virtually the sole contributor to local demographic additions. SA2 projections published by ABS/Geoscience Australia in 2024 (using 2022 as their starting baseline) are applied across AreaSearch models. Where specific SA2 coverage is absent, figures draw on 2023 VIC State Government Regional/LGA datasets, adjusted via weighted population growth aggregations transitioning from LGA down to SA2 boundaries. Age-bracket growth rates derived from these models are similarly projected across all regions for 2032 through 2041. Based on expected demographic patterns, local population growth is anticipated to sit slightly beneath the national median, expanding by 1,131 persons to 2041 according to current annual ERP benchmarks, representing an overall increase of 7.5% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
287 new dwellings have been approved in Beaumaris over the past five years, an average of 57 a year. That is 4.0 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 58 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 45% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Residential building consents in Beaumaris average roughly 57 per annum, accumulating to 287 approved dwellings across the preceding 5 financial years. With an influx of only 0.4 new residents annually for every newly approved home over the past 5 financial years (from FY-22 to FY-26), additions to local housing stock are keeping pace with or exceeding demand. This dynamic offers broader choice for prospective buyers and supports population gains that might outstrip baseline expectations, while new properties carry an average construction value of $975,000, underscoring an emphasis by developers on high-end, luxury residences.
Furthermore, commercial consents have reached $22.1 million during the ongoing financial year, reflecting solid non-residential investment. Relative to Greater Melbourne, residential construction intensity in Beaumaris remains subdued (tracking 58.0% lower per capita than the metropolitan benchmark). Such limited pipeline activity typically bolsters values and demand for established dwellings. Recent building authorizations consist of 45.0% separate houses alongside 55.0% medium-to-high density formats such as townhouses or apartments. This pivot toward higher-density housing creates accessible buying pathways for downsizing owner-occupiers, investors, and newer market entrants. It marks a clear departure from the prevailing local property landscape (where houses currently constitute 79.0%), pointing to a scarcity of vacant land while accommodating evolving buyer preferences for diverse and relatively affordable product. Generating approximately one approval per 301 people, Beaumaris retains low development intensity. Long-term demographic models indicate that Beaumaris will add 1,086 residents through to 2041 (benchmarked against the newest AreaSearch quarterly figures). Given the current pace of building approvals, the supply pipeline appears well positioned to satisfy anticipated demand, fostering supportive market conditions for purchasers and potentially facilitating population expansion beyond baseline forecasts.

7,738 residents of Beaumaris are employed, from a labour force of 7,963. Unemployment sits at 2.8%, with participation at 65.1%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 11,923, about 82% 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 local labour force in Beaumaris is notably skilled, characterized by a substantial white-collar presence and an unemployment rate standing at only 2.8%. There were 7,738 residents holding employment as of March 2026, with local unemployment sitting 1.9 percentage points below the Greater Melbourne benchmark of 4.8%, while the labor market participation rate is slightly compressed at 65.1% compared to 70.1% across Greater Melbourne. Census records also indicate that 46.7% of local workers operated from home, though this metric was likely elevated by prevailing Covid-19 restrictions. The leading employment sectors for local residents comprise professional & technical, health care & social assistance, and education & training.
Representation is exceptionally pronounced within professional & technical roles, where employment density is 1.4 times the metropolitan average. Conversely, transport, postal & warehousing accounts for merely 2.6% of local working residents, trailing Greater Melbourne's 5.2%. Given the disparity between local resident workers and the daytime Census working population, this largely residential community provides relatively few jobs within its own borders. AreaSearch assessment of ABS and SALM figures reveals that over the twelve months to March 2026, the local workforce contracted by 0.3% while resident employment dropped by 0.9%, leading to an unemployment rate increase of 0.6 percentage points. In contrast, Greater Melbourne recorded a 2.1% rise in employed persons, a 2.3% expansion in the labour pool, and a 0.2 percentage point uptick in unemployment. National outlook figures from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide additional context regarding future workforce requirements across Beaumaris. These five and ten-year projections have been aligned with the local industry distribution to gauge potential growth. Against national projected employment increases of 6.6% across five years and 13.7% across ten years, industry performance varies substantially. Applying these sectoral trajectories to the existing local workforce profile suggests resident employment could expand by 6.9% over five years and 13.9% over ten years (note that this represents a simple weighted extrapolation for demonstration and excludes localized population models).

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 — 83 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (14,021 at the 2021 Census → 14,531 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 (208011168). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
