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
Kings Park (Vic.) has an estimated 13,956 residents, down from 13,983 at the 2021 Census. The population has thinned by an average 0.7% a year over five years, slower than 93% of areas nationally. That puts 3,150 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 AreaSearch data, the population of Kings Park stands at approximately 13,956 as of Aug 2026. This figure marks a drop of 27 individuals, representing a 0.2% decline, compared to the 2021 Census count of 13,983 residents. The adjustment is derived from the ABS estimated resident population of 13,956 recorded as of June 2025, combined with six newly validated addresses added after the Census date. With this headcount, the locality records a density of 3,150 persons per square kilometer, positioning it within the top quartile among national sites evaluated by AreaSearch.
Despite the 0.2% contraction in Kings Park since the last census, the broader SA3 region expanded by 2.2%, illustrating contrasting demographic movements. Overseas migration accounted for roughly 76.7% of the total population increase observed in recent years. Population projections produced by AreaSearch incorporate official modelling from the ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024 using 2022 as a foundational base. When local SA2 coverage is absent from these datasets, AreaSearch applies the 2023 Victoria State Government Regional and LGA projections, distributing growth from municipal to local levels via a weighted aggregation framework. Age-specific cohort expansion rates generated by these aggregations are carried forward across all localities for the period spanning 2032 to 2041. Based on these demographic forecasts, population expansion is anticipated to trail just beneath the national median, with Kings Park slated to gain 988 persons through 2041 relative to latest annual ERP benchmarks, representing a cumulative increase of 7.1% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
47 new dwellings have been approved in Kings Park (Vic.) over the past five years, an average of 9 a year. That is 0.7 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 planning approval volumes in Kings Park average approximately 9 dwellings per annum, amounting to a cumulative total of 47 homes across the preceding 5 financial years. In the context of recent population contraction, this development throughput offers sufficient capacity for local buyers, with newly approved residences carrying an average construction value of $351,000—a figure lower than the broader regional benchmark that reflects relatively affordable building activity. Furthermore, commercial building approvals reached $199,000 during the current financial year, highlighting the suburb's overwhelmingly residential focus. Building approvals per capita in Kings Park sit 78.0% below the regional average across Greater Melbourne.
This subdued volume of new construction generally bolsters pricing power and underlying buyer interest within the established residential market. Local building rates are similarly subdued compared to nationwide metrics, reflecting established urban maturity alongside possible physical or zoning constraints. Approved residential projects comprise 70.0% standalone houses and 30.0% townhouses or apartments, signalling a progressive shift toward medium-density living that delivers housing options across varying price thresholds, ranging from conventional family houses to compact options. This marks a notable evolution from the established built environment (presently 96.0% detached houses), driven by declining greenfield site availability, evolving buyer preferences, and an increasing appetite for diverse, price-accessible housing. With approximately 1505 people per dwelling approval, Kings Park displays the characteristics of a deeply established urban market. Demographic projections indicate that Kings Park will expand by 988 residents through to 2041 according to recent quarterly estimates from AreaSearch. If residential development proceeds at its current pace, future dwelling additions could fall short of resident growth, potentially escalating buyer competition and maintaining upward momentum on local property values.

5,906 residents of Kings Park (Vic.) are employed, from a labour force of 6,590. Unemployment sits at 10.4%, with participation at 56.9%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.4% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 11,067, about 79% 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 market in Kings Park is distributed across blue-collar and white-collar roles, supported by a substantial base of industrial and manufacturing positions. The locality records an unemployment rate of 10.4% alongside an estimated 2.3% annual expansion in employment. As of March 2026, employed residents total 5,906, while local joblessness exceeds the Greater Melbourne benchmark of 4.8% by 5.6%, indicating considerable capacity for workforce absorption, accompanied by a subdued labour force participation rate of 56.9% against Greater Melbourne's 70.1%. Census findings recorded a modest 13.0% of local workers working from home, a metric influenced by COVID-19 restrictions active during that period.
Leading industries of employment across the resident workforce comprise manufacturing, retail trade, and health care & social assistance. Local industrial concentration is especially prominent in manufacturing, where employment density reaches 2.1 times the Greater Melbourne average. Conversely, professional & technical occupations are notably underrepresented, engaging just 3.7% of Kings Park workers compared with 10.1% across Greater Melbourne. Because the suburb is predominantly residential, internal employment capacity remains limited, as shown by the disparity between the local working population and resident labour force counts from the Census. According to AreaSearch evaluations of ABS and Small Area Labour Markets (SALM) records for the twelve months leading to March 2026, total employment grew by 2.3% while the local labour force expanded by 1.9%, reducing the jobless rate by 0.3 percentage points. Across Greater Melbourne over the identical timeframe, employment increased by 2.1%, the workforce expanded by 2.3%, and unemployment rose by 0.2 percentage points. Forward-looking employment estimates from Jobs and Skills Australia issued in Mar-26 provide an indication of medium-term job requirements for Kings Park across five-year and ten-year intervals, modelled against local industry representation. Across Australia, workforce numbers are projected to grow by 6.6% across five years and 13.7% across ten years, with distinct variations among individual sectors. Applying these industry growth rates to Kings Park's current industry composition indicates local employment expansion of 5.4% over five years and 11.9% over ten years (calculated as an illustrative weighted extrapolation without adjusting for localized demographic 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 — 6 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (13,983 at the 2021 Census → 13,956 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.
