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.

Kingsbury has an estimated 12,942 residents, up from 10,408 at the 2021 Census — a change of 2,534 people, or 24.3%. Growth has averaged 2.3% a year over five years, faster than 93% of areas nationally. Overseas migration accounts for 99.1% of that increase. That puts 1,436 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 population of Kingsbury stands at approximately 12,942 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 2,534 individuals (24.3%) from the 10,408 residents recorded during the 2021 Census. The updated figure is calculated by combining the ABS estimated resident population of 12,932 from June 2025 with 61 validated new addresses identified since the Census. With this population level, the locality has a density of 1,436 persons per square kilometer, outperforming the typical density found across the country in AreaSearch assessments. The 24.3% expansion rate since the 2021 census paced ahead of the state average of 9.3% as well as the nationwide figure, positioning the area as a regional growth hotspot.
This demographic surge was majorly fueled by overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 99.1% of the total population increase in recent times. Projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024 using a 2022 baseline are implemented by AreaSearch for each SA2 region. In instances where SA2 data is unavailable, projections are sourced from the 2023 VIC State Government Regional/LGA release, adapting the figures by weighting and aggregating population growth from LGA down to SA2 boundaries. These aggregated age cohort growth rates are projected forward for the years 2032 to 2041. Based on these anticipated demographic transitions, the locality is set to experience stellar growth, ranking in the top 10 percent of locations nationwide. The community is projected to gain 7,874 persons by 2041 relative to the most recent annual ERP data, representing a total expansion of 60.8% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
239 new dwellings have been approved in Kingsbury over the past five years, an average of 47 a year. That places the area in the 81st percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 4 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 43 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 9% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 14, 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
An average of approximately 47 new home approvals has been registered annually in Kingsbury, representing 239 dwellings over the preceding 5 financial years. Thus far during FY-26, there have been 13 registered approvals. With an average of 5.9 additional residents for every built home during the 5 financial years spanning FY-21 to FY-25, demand remains well ahead of supply, a dynamic that commonly exerts upward pressure on dwelling prices and intensifies buyer competition, while new builds average a construction value of $405,000. Additionally, commercial approvals have reached $22.8 million in the current financial year, demonstrating consistent commercial investment.
Kingsbury experiences about half the per capita building activity of Greater Melbourne, placing it in the 59th percentile of all analyzed locations nationwide. Newly approved construction consists of 9.0% detached houses and 91.0% townhouses or apartments. This preference for medium and high-density formats provides more affordable options and appeals to downsizers, investors, and first-time buyers. This represents a distinct departure from the existing housing stock, which is currently 60.0% houses, showing a reduction in available development land alongside changing lifestyle preferences and budget constraints. The area registers roughly 308 people per single dwelling approval, suggesting capacity for further development. Moving forward, the population of Kingsbury is projected to rise by 7,864 residents by 2041, based on the latest quarterly calculations from AreaSearch. Should the pace of construction remain unchanged, residential supply might fall short of population gains, potentially escalating competition among purchasers and reinforcing upward price trends.

7,776 residents of Kingsbury are employed, from a labour force of 8,016. Unemployment sits at 3.0%, with participation at 69.2%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.6% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth, so in an area growing as fast as this one it understates the likely rise in local jobs. 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 workforce is highly qualified, with a strong showing in essential services fields, an unemployment rate sitting at only 3.0%, and a 2.2% rise in estimated jobs over the past year. In March 2026, employed residents numbered 7,776, while the jobless rate was 1.8% lower than the 4.8% recorded across Greater Melbourne, and the participation rate closely matched the Greater Melbourne level of 70.2%. Census details show that a substantial 29.0% of the employed population worked from home, though this figure may have been influenced by COVID-19 lockdowns. The primary employment sectors for local workers are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and education & training.
The area exhibits a notable concentration in accommodation & food, where the employment proportion is 1.3 times the regional average. Conversely, construction is underrepresented, employing 8.4% of workers compared to 9.7% across the region. At the time of the Census, there were 0.6 local jobs for every resident worker, pointing to a higher-than-average volume of local employment possibilities. An examination of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch shows that over the 12-month period, local employment grew by 2.2% while the labor force expanded by 2.8%, leading to a 0.6 percentage point rise in the unemployment rate. Over the same timeframe, Greater Melbourne saw employment rise by 2.1% and the labor force expand by 2.3%, with unemployment increasing by 0.2 percentage points. National employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of May-25 offer additional context on future labor needs in Kingsbury. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local industry mix to estimate employment trends. Nationally, employment is predicted to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though individual industries vary. Projecting these national industry trends onto Kingsbury's specific workforce profile indicates local employment could rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, representing a basic weighted extrapolation for comparison purposes that does not account for local population changes.

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 — 61 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (10,408 at the 2021 Census → 12,942 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 (209021205). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
