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
Harvey has an estimated 10,654 residents, up from 9,309 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,345 people, or 14.4%. Growth has averaged 2.0% a year over five years, faster than 83% of areas nationally. 112 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Overseas migration accounts for 47.3% of that increase. Fewer than ten people live on each square kilometre, across a boundary that takes in surrounding rural land. 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 resident count for Harvey stands at roughly 10,654 as of Aug 2026. This represents an addition of 1,345 people (14.4%) relative to the 2021 Census, when 9,309 people were enumerated. Such growth is determined using an ABS estimated resident population of 10,457 as of June 2025 alongside 112 validated new addresses identified after the Census date. With this head count, the local population density settles at 6.4 persons per square kilometer, ensuring a spacious living environment. The community's 14.4% expansion rate following the 2021 census outpaced the broader national figure (9.5%) as well as the wider SA3 area, establishing Harvey as an outperforming growth hub within the district.
Net overseas migration served as the primary demographic catalyst, generating roughly 47.3% of total population additions over recent intervals, though natural increase and net interstate movements also made positive contributions. Projections compiled by the ABS/Geoscience Australia, released in 2024 with a 2022 baseline, are incorporated by AreaSearch for every individual SA2 locality. In instances where an SA2 lacks coverage, or for projecting demographic trajectories following 2032 across all geographies, AreaSearch applies age-cohort expansion percentages sourced from the most recent Greater Capital Region projections from the ABS (published in 2023 utilizing 2022 benchmarks). Factoring in anticipated demographic changes, the district is slated for higher than median population growth when measured against non-metropolitan regions nationwide, with local numbers projected to rise by 1,529 persons through to 2041 according to current annual ERP figures, translating to an overall growth rate of 12.5% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
295 new dwellings have been approved in Harvey over the past five years, an average of 59 a year. That places the area in the 84th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 6 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 59 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 100% 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 construction authorizations in Harvey have averaged approximately 59 dwellings per year, culminating in 295 homes throughout the preceding 5 financial years. Given that 3.4 new residents were recorded annually for each dwelling completed over the past 5 financial years (spanning FY-22 to FY-26), additions to housing stock are running well behind demographic needs, commonly generating tighter market competition and upward cost pressure, with building activity yielding residential units at a mean construction value of $411,000. Furthermore, commercial building approvals have reached $19.7 million across the current financial year, underscoring ongoing non-residential capital expenditure.
Per-capita development activity in Harvey tracks closely with Rest of WA, maintaining regional supply-demand parity. Moreover, additions to the dwelling stock have consisted exclusively of standalone houses, preserving the locality's established low-density urban fabric and prioritizing family accommodations that cater to buyers prioritizing space. Generating an approval for approximately every 153 people, Harvey displays the typical characteristics of an expanding locality. Demographic projections indicate that Harvey will welcome an additional 1,332 residents by 2041, benchmarked against AreaSearch's latest quarterly baseline. Sustaining current construction rates should provide sufficient residential additions to satisfy anticipated demand, fostering supportive conditions for purchasers and potentially facilitating expansion beyond baseline projections.

Frequently Asked Questions - Infrastructure
Forrest Highway Intersection Improvements
An ongoing project by Main Roads Western Australia to improve road user safety at key intersections along Forrest Highway. Works include the construction of new acceleration lanes and intersection upgrades, specifically at Wellesley Road, Binningup Road, Forestry Road, and Preston Beach Road. Project expected to be completed by 2026.
Kemerton Battery Energy Storage System
The Kemerton project involves a 660 MW / 2,640 MWh battery system and a 300 kV underground line, located 2.5 km northwest of Kemerton Terminal Station, WA, connecting to the South West Interconnected System. This large-scale battery energy storage facility supports grid stability and renewable energy integration as part of the broader Kemerton Strategic Industrial Area energy infrastructure.
Binningup Development (Fiveight)
A large-scale greenfield coastal site development by Fiveight, with potential for a mix of residential housing (approx. 1,040 dwellings), retail, hospitality, leisure uses, and the redevelopment of the existing nine-hole golf course. The project aims to create a vibrant and sustainable new community over a 20-30 year timeframe. Includes an approved subdivision of 9 residential lots at 64 Valentine Road within Lakewood Shores. The site was purchased for $7.7 million in 2022.
Albemarle Lithium Hydroxide Plant (Kemerton)
A world-scale lithium hydroxide processing plant located in the Kemerton Strategic Industrial Area. As of February 2026, Albemarle has idled the entire facility, placing the final operating unit (Train 1) into care and maintenance alongside Train 2. Construction of Trains 3 and 4 was previously ceased in 2024. The plant was designed to produce up to 100,000 tpa of battery-grade lithium hydroxide from spodumene concentrate sourced from the Greenbushes mine, but it is currently non-operational due to high Western operating costs and lithium market volatility.
Myalup-Wellesley Road Upgrade
Funded by the state government, this project involved widening and upgrading sections of Myalup-Wellesley Road to improve safety and support the local agricultural and tourism industries. The upgrades address the needs of heavy vehicles servicing the region.
Myalup Residential Growth
Ongoing residential development in the coastal town of Myalup, consisting of new single-family homes and land subdivisions to accommodate a growing population attracted to the area's lifestyle and proximity to major employment hubs like Kemerton and Bunbury.
Albemarle Workers' Accommodation Village, Binningup
$73-million workers' accommodation project by Albemarle in Binningup to house 500 workers for Albemarle Lithium Plant expansion. Includes 128 villas, office, dining hall, recreation center, solar farm, and environmental considerations. The proposal was scrapped in June 2023 due to community opposition and timeline issues.
Binningup Desalination Plant (Southern Seawater Desalination Plant - SSDP)
An operational desalination plant that produces a significant portion (approx. 17% of Perth's demand, 306,000m3/day) of drinking water for Perth, noted for its cutting-edge operations, environmental considerations, and use of 100% renewable energy. It began operation in 2011/2012.
5,570 residents of Harvey are employed, from a labour force of 5,762. Unemployment sits at 3.3%, with participation at 65.1%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 4.5% 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
Harvey maintains a diverse local workforce comprising both professional and trade occupations, bolstered by substantial industrial and manufacturing presence, an unemployment rate standing at a modest 3.3%, and annual jobs growth calculated at 1.1%. Across the locality, 5,570 residents are employed as of March 2026, while the jobless level is 0.2% below the Regional WA benchmark of 3.5%, and labor force participation matches the Regional WA rate of 65.4%. Census records show that a comparatively small share of 8.2% of workers performed their duties from home, though historical Covid-19 restrictions provide relevant context.
Key industries supporting local workers include manufacturing, agriculture, forestry & fishing, along with construction. Manufacturing represents a standout employer in the region, engaging personnel at a rate 3.5 times the regional average. Conversely, mining operations account for only 8.3% of the resident workforce, trailing the Regional WA proportion of 11.7%. Despite the availability of local positions, comparisons between Census employment numbers and resident population figures suggest that a significant volume of workers travel to surrounding employment centers. Evaluation of SALM and ABS datasets by AreaSearch shows that during the twelve months to March 2026, resident employment expanded by 1.1% while the workforce base grew by 1.0%, lowering local joblessness by 0.1 percentage points. By way of comparison, Regional WA recorded a 0.1% contraction in employment, a 0.3% rise in total labor force, and a 0.4 percentage points increase in unemployment. Future labor requirements in Harvey can be further evaluated through national employment outlooks published by Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26. These five- and ten-year forecasts have been applied across the local industry profile to model potential trajectory paths. Across the nation, total employment is anticipated to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though anticipated rates vary considerably across sectors. Projecting these industry-specific trends across Harvey's sectoral distribution points to potential workforce gains of 4.5% over five years and 10.9% over ten years (noting this calculation represents a simple weighted model for context rather than a localized population forecast).
Frequently Asked Questions - Employment

ATO records put median taxable income at $57,070 a year against an average of $69,969. Household income is from the 2021 Census; taxable income is from ATO Taxation Statistics for the latest financial year available, indexed forward using the ABS Wage Price Index.
Detail
ATO taxation statistics for financial year 2023 published at postcode level by AreaSearch indicate that taxpayers in the Harvey SA2 earn a median income of $57,070 and an average income of $69,969. These metrics sit slightly above nationwide medians, while trailing the Regional WA median of $59,973 and average of $74,392. Adjusting for a 10.93% rise in the Wage Price Index since financial year 2023 brings current modeled compensation to approximately $63,308 for the median and $77,617 for the average as of March 2026. Data from the 2021 Census places Harvey's family, household, and personal earnings within moderate percentiles, spanning the 33rd to 35th percentiles.
A breakdown of earnings brackets reveals that 30.6% of local earners (3,260 individuals) fall into the $1,500 - 2,999 category, matching regional distribution where 31.1% earn within this range.

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 — 112 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (9,309 at the 2021 Census → 10,654 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.
