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.

Detail
According to demographic assessments by AreaSearch, the population of Bicton - Palmyra stands at roughly 16,542 as of Aug 2026. This represents a gain of 1,764 people (11.9%) compared to the 14,778 people recorded during the 2021 Census. Such growth has been calculated utilizing the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population of 16,510 along with 26 validated new addresses documented following the Census. The local population density reaches 2,617 persons per square kilometer, positioning the locality within the upper quartile among all nationally evaluated areas by AreaSearch. Surpassing the broader national expansion rate of 9.5%, Bicton - Palmyra's 11.9% gain since the 2021 census highlights its status as an outperforming growth area locally.
Inbound overseas migration served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 68.4% of total population additions over recent timeframes, with natural increases and interstate arrivals also delivering positive contributions. Projections compiled by Geoscience Australia and the ABS from 2024, utilizing 2022 as a baseline, form the foundation of AreaSearch's SA2 modeling. For timeframes extending past 2032 or locations lacking dedicated coverage, cohort-specific growth rates from the 2023 Greater Capital Region projections (utilizing 2022 data) are applied. Anticipated demographic shifts suggest that Bicton - Palmyra will experience an above median population growth rate among areas evaluated by AreaSearch. In total, the community is slated to expand by 2,275 persons through to 2041 according to recent annual ERP population statistics, achieving an overall increase of 13.6% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
120 new dwellings have been approved in Bicton - Palmyra over the past five years, an average of 24 a year. That places the area in the 53rd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 1 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 24 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 96% 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 planning approvals across Bicton - Palmyra have averaged roughly 24 dwellings annually, accumulating to 120 homes throughout the prior 5 financial years. Between FY-22 and FY-26, incoming population figures showed an average of 12.3 people per year arriving per completed home, creating a noticeable gap where supply trails demand. This mismatch typically triggers heightened buyer competition and upward pricing pressures. Concurrently, newly approved dwellings carry an average construction value of $722,000, demonstrating that builders are prioritizing upscale, premium residential offerings. Furthermore, approvals for commercial developments reached $4.8 million this financial year, underlining the largely residential nature of the district.
When evaluated on a per-capita basis against Greater Perth, building activity in Bicton - Palmyra remains substantially subdued, sitting 72.0% below regional average per person. Such constrained construction often bolsters asset values and demand across established homes. This lower level of activity is likewise below average nationally, reflecting both a fully established suburban landscape and potential planning boundaries. Among new residential approvals, detached houses account for 96.0% while medium and high-density housing constitutes 4.0%, reinforcing the traditional character of low-density neighborhood living centered on spacious family dwellings. Interestingly, the proportion of standalone homes being approved outpaces the 61.0% at Census baseline, illustrating enduring demand for traditional family residences despite urban densification objectives. With approximately 599 people per approval, the district exhibits the characteristics of a mature, well-established community. Looking forward, the most recent AreaSearch quarterly projections estimate that Bicton - Palmyra will add 2,243 residents through to 2041. Should building volumes continue at current tempos, new housing delivery could fall short of resident inflows, likely intensifying competition among purchasers and sustaining upward momentum in property prices.

9,415 residents of Bicton - Palmyra are employed, from a labour force of 9,619. Unemployment sits at 2.1%, with participation at 69.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.7% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 13,902, about 84% 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
Featuring an unemployment rate of merely 2.1%, Bicton - Palmyra boasts a highly qualified local labor force with strong representation across essential service sectors. Total employed residents stood at 9,415 as of March 2026, while the local jobless rate sat 2.1% below Greater Perth's rate of 4.2%. Participation in the workforce aligned with Greater Perth's 69.9%. Meanwhile, Census data indicated that only 10.1% of employed locals worked from home, a metric that may reflect the influence of Covid-19 restrictions at that time. Health care & social assistance, education & training, along with professional & technical services constitute the primary employment fields for residents.
The workforce displays an exceptional concentration within education & training, where local employment stands at 1.5 times the regional average. Conversely, retail trade accounts for a smaller footprint at 8.0% of local jobs versus 9.3% regionally. Given the disparity between resident workers and local job tallies at the Census, this largely residential district provides a limited volume of employment opportunities within its own boundaries. Data sourced from the ABS and SALM and evaluated by AreaSearch shows that in the year to March 2026, local labor supply fell by 0.9% alongside a 0.8% drop in total employment, maintaining stable jobless figures. By comparison, Greater Perth recorded an employment expansion of 2.0% and a 2.5% increase in its labor force, alongside a 0.4 percentage point rise in unemployment. Additional future guidance stems from Jobs and Skills Australia's Mar-26 national employment forecasts. Projected over five- and ten-year horizons against local industry distributions, these figures indicate varying sectoral trajectories. Nationally, employment is anticipated to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years. Applying these industry weightings to Bicton - Palmyra's worker distribution indicates prospective employment expansion of 6.7% over five years and 14.0% over ten years (an illustrative weighted projection that excludes local population adjustments).

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 — 26 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (14,778 at the 2021 Census → 16,542 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.
