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
Jandakot has an estimated 2,693 residents, up from 2,446 at the 2021 Census — a change of 247 people, or 10.1%. Growth has averaged 1.3% a year over five years. 379 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Overseas migration accounts for 80.2% of that increase. That puts 172 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 demographic evaluations by AreaSearch, the resident count of Jandakot reaches approximately 2,693 as of Aug 2026. This represents an addition of 247 people (10.1%) compared to the 2021 Census, which registered 2,446 people. Such growth has been calculated utilizing the ABS estimated resident population figure of 2,693 from June 2025 alongside 379 validated new addresses added following the Census date. With a density of 171 persons per square kilometer, the locality offers ample space per capita and substantial room for potential expansion. Outpacing the national benchmark of 9.5%, Jandakot's 10.1% increase since the 2021 census places it among the region's leading growth areas.
Net overseas migration served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 80.2% of all recent population additions. Projections published by the ABS and Geoscience Australia in 2024 (using 2022 as their baseline) have been applied across SA2 territories by AreaSearch. Where locations lack direct coverage, and for projecting figures beyond 2032 across all districts, age cohort expansion rates from the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region release (derived from 2022 data) are incorporated. Looking forward, the locality is anticipated to register an expansion pace just under the national statistical area median, gaining 216 persons to 2041 according to the latest annual ERP population numbers, which equates to an overall growth rate of 8.0% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
170 new dwellings have been approved in Jandakot over the past five years, an average of 34 a year. That places the area in the 65th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 13 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 34 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 building approvals in Jandakot have maintained a pace of roughly 34 units annually, accumulating to 170 homes across the past 5 financial years. Because only 1 new residents per year per dwelling constructed was recorded over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), the volume of incoming housing is tracking alongside or surpassing local requirements, delivering extensive choice to purchasers and enabling headroom for demographic gains beyond current models. With newly approved dwellings carrying an expected construction cost averaging $582,000, development activity is clearly oriented toward high-end, premium residential projects.
Concurrently, non-residential activity remains robust, evidenced by $37.2 million in commercial approvals recorded during this financial year. On a per-capita basis, construction volume in Jandakot surpasses Greater Perth by 55.0%, expanding opportunities for purchasers. This rate comfortably exceeds countrywide benchmarks, illustrating strong confidence among builders and developers. Furthermore, recent building activity has centered exclusively on separate houses, reinforcing the low-density landscape and continuing to draw buyers looking for spacious freestanding homes. The district records roughly 42 people per dwelling approval, signaling a growing residential sector. Demographic modeling indicates an anticipated increase of 216 residents across Jandakot through to 2041 relative to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimate. Provided present building volumes persist, upcoming residential construction will easily accommodate demand, supporting favorable market dynamics for property seekers and accommodating population gains higher than baseline projections.

It offers up to 500,000 square metres of leasable space for high-calibre businesses and industrial operations, positioned as a hub for Perth's growing population in one of WA's fastest-growing areas. It is designed as a master-planned and fully serviced commercial/industrial precinct.
1,627 residents of Jandakot are employed, from a labour force of 1,668. Unemployment sits at 2.5%, with participation at 72.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 6,862, about 2.5 times the resident population, so the area draws in more workers than it sends out. 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 Jandakot displays high skill levels with solid standing in essential services, accompanied by an unemployment rate of only 2.5%. Counted as of March 2026, 1,627 residents are actively employed, while local unemployment sits 1.7% lower than the 4.2% documented across Greater Perth. The participation rate tracks near regional norms at 72.0% compared to 69.9% in Greater Perth. Data from the Census indicated that 9.5% of working locals operated from home, though this figure was likely influenced by Covid-19 restrictions. Local workers are concentrated primarily in health care & social assistance, education & training, along with retail trade.
Specialization is particularly pronounced in education & training, which holds a share of the workforce 1.3 times the broader regional benchmark. Conversely, accommodation & food demonstrates lower involvement, employing only 4.5% of the local workforce relative to 6.8% across Greater Perth. With the Census recording 3.7 workers for every resident, Jandakot serves as a major destination for employment, providing more jobs than it has resident workers and drawing commuters from neighboring suburbs. Analysis of SALM and ABS figures by AreaSearch reveals that over the twelve months to March 2026, the area's workforce shrank by 0.9% while employment fell by 1.3%, lifting local unemployment by 0.4 percentage points. Across Greater Perth over the same interval, jobs increased by 2.0%, the labor pool grew by 2.5%, and unemployment rose by 0.4 percentage points. Longer-term hiring patterns can be evaluated via Jobs and Skills Australia's nationwide employment outlook from Mar-26. These five- and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local workforce distribution to project future trajectory. Across the country, employment is expected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with marked variation across industries. Weighting these sectoral projections against the local employment profile indicates potential employment gains of 6.3% over five years and 13.4% over ten years (note that this is a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not take into account localised population projections).

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 — 379 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,446 at the 2021 Census → 2,693 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.
