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 14,499 residents, up from 14,021 at the 2021 Census — a change of 478 people, or 3.4%. That puts 2,429 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 investigations by AreaSearch, the resident count of Beaumaris stands at approximately 14,499 in May 2026. Compared to the 2021 Census, which recorded 14,021 inhabitants, this represents an expansion of 478 individuals (3.4%). This shift is calculated using the June 2025 ABS estimate of 14,486 residents alongside 71 validated new addresses registered after the census. With these figures, the density of the area reaches 2,428 persons per square kilometer, placing the locality in the top quarter of Australian regions evaluated by AreaSearch. The post-census growth of 3.4% trailing the broader SA3 zone (6.0%) by 2.6 percentage points indicates a competitive local expansion rate.
Overseas migration served as the primary contributor to these gains, functioning as virtually the sole source of population growth in recent times. Projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024 with a 2022 baseline are utilized by AreaSearch for SA2 regions. For areas where such datasets are unavailable, local government projections released by the Victorian State Government in 2023 are applied, with adjustments made via a weighted consolidation of population shifts from the LGA to the SA2 level. The age structure growth trends derived from these consolidations are projected forward from 2032 to 2041. Based on these anticipated demographic transitions, the locality is expected to experience population growth slightly below the national median, gaining 1,157 individuals by 2041 relative to current ERP figures, which translates to a total increase of 7.9% over a 16 years timeframe.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
310 new dwellings have been approved in Beaumaris over the past five years, an average of 62 a year. That is 4.4 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 49 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 45% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 43, well below that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Building approvals in Beaumaris average approximately 62 residential units annually, with 310 dwellings authorized over the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25) and 40 registered during FY-26. Because only 0.4 new residents were added per constructed home on average over the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), the supply of new dwellings is keeping pace with or exceeding demand, providing buyers with more alternatives and potentially paving the way for faster population growth than currently projected, with construction projects averaging $760,000 in value, reflecting a developer focus on high-end, luxury options.
Furthermore, commercial approvals have reached $22.1 million during the current financial year, representing consistent investment in local business infrastructure. Beaumaris displays a significantly lower level of residential development relative to Greater Melbourne, sitting 55.0% below the metropolitan per capita average. This limited addition of housing stock generally bolsters demand and supports valuation levels for existing properties. Newly approved projects consist of 45.0% separate houses and 55.0% semi-detached or multi-unit dwellings. This orientation toward higher density options creates reachable pathways for buyers and attracts downsizers, real estate investors, and first-time purchasers. This represents a distinct departure from the local housing baseline (where houses currently make up 79.0% of properties), signaling a shrinking pool of vacant land alongside shifting lifestyle demands and the necessity for more varied, economical housing. The ratio of 261 people per building approval points to a low density environment. Demographic projections indicate that Beaumaris is on track to add 1,144 residents by 2041, measured from the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimation. Assuming current construction trends persist, the supply of new dwellings should easily satisfy incoming demand, offering favorable market environments for purchasers and potentially enabling growth that outpaces current population forecasts.

7,738 residents of Beaumaris are employed, from a labour force of 7,963. Unemployment sits at 2.8%, with participation at 65.2%. 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 11,888, 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 labor pool in Beaumaris is highly qualified, with professional services highly represented and an unemployment rate of only 2.8%. In March 2026, there were 7,738 employed residents, and the local jobless rate sat 1.9% below the Greater Melbourne level of 4.8%, while participation in the workforce was somewhat low at 65.2% compared to the metropolitan standard of 70.2%. Census data reveals that a substantial 46.7% of the working population operated from home, though this figure may have been influenced by pandemic-related restrictions. Resident employment is heavily weighted toward professional & technical fields, health care & social assistance, and education & training.
The concentration in professional & technical services is particularly pronounced, registering at 1.4 times the metropolitan average. On the other hand, sectors like transport, postal & warehousing are underrepresented at 2.6% compared to the metropolitan average of 5.2%. Comparison of Census jobholder counts to resident totals suggests that this primarily residential district offers a restricted volume of local job opportunities. According to AreaSearch's evaluation of SALM and ABS statistics, during the 12 months ending in March 2026, the local workforce contracted by 0.3% while overall employment fell by 0.9%, resulting in a 0.6 percentage points rise in the unemployment rate. In contrast, Greater Melbourne recorded a 2.1% increase in employment, a 2.3% rise in the labor force, and a 0.2 percentage points increase in unemployment. National employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of May-25 offer additional context on future labor needs in Beaumaris. These forecasts, spanning five and ten years, are mapped against local labor patterns to project future employment trajectories. Nationwide employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, but growth profiles vary considerably by industry. Extrapolating these industry trends to the local employment mix suggests that local employment in Beaumaris would rise by 6.9% over five years and 13.9% over ten years, although this represents a basic weighted projection that does not incorporate localized population shifts.

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 — 71 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (14,021 at the 2021 Census → 14,499 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 (208011168). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
