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
Kewdale has an estimated 8,470 residents, up from 7,394 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,076 people, or 14.6%. Growth has averaged 2.0% a year over five years, faster than 83% of areas nationally. Overseas migration accounts for 81.6% of that increase. That puts 2,891 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 resident count in Kewdale stands at approximately 8,470 as of Aug 2026. This represents an expansion of 1,076 people (14.6%) compared to the 2021 Census tally of 7,394 people. Such growth is determined using the ABS estimated resident population figure of 8,443 recorded as of June 2025 alongside 97 validated new addresses identified following the Census. Kewdale maintains a population density of 2,890 persons per square kilometer, positioning it within the top quartile among all nationally evaluated territories. Furthermore, the 14.6% expansion rate achieved by Kewdale outpaced the 9.5% national benchmark, establishing the locality as a prominent regional growth center.
Inbound overseas migration served as the primary demographic catalyst, generating roughly 81.6% of the overall population gains recorded across recent periods. Projections published in 2024 with 2022 serving as the baseline by ABS/Geoscience Australia are implemented across individual SA2 zones by AreaSearch. In instances where SA2 localities lack specific coverage, as well as for projecting figures past 2032, growth rates segmented by age bracket from the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023 from 2022 data) are applied. Evaluating future demographic patterns indicates that the district is on track for a population increase positioned marginally under the national median, with an anticipated rise of 960 persons through to 2041 based on recent annual ERP totals, representing an overall expansion of 11.0% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
154 new dwellings have been approved in Kewdale over the past five years, an average of 30 a year. That places the area in the 74th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 4 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 30 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 70% 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 authorisations in Kewdale have averaged close to 30 dwellings per year, culminating in 154 homes across the preceding 5 financial years. Given that an average of 5.2 people per year have arrived in the area for every newly constructed residence during the last 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), local housing demand outstrips newly delivered stock, creating substantial price pressure and heightened competition between prospective purchasers, with ongoing residential projects averaging $400,000 in construction value. When evaluated against Greater Perth, dwelling consent volume per resident in Kewdale sits at approximately two-thirds the broader capital rate, placing the area at the 63rd percentile nationwide despite a recent surge in building works.
Approved construction encompasses 70.0% detached houses and 30.0% townhouses or apartments, delivering a growing assortment of attached dwellings that provide varied housing choices across diverse price points, spanning expansive family residences to affordable compact formats. With roughly 209 people per approval, the local property sector demonstrates clear transitional characteristics. According to the latest quarterly calculations from AreaSearch, future forecasts project Kewdale to gain 933 residents by 2041. Although development pace is tracking reasonably against expected population increases, incoming residents and buyers may encounter intensifying market competition as local numbers grow.

1022-1024 Albany Highway Commercial Precinct
An approved commercial development in St James featuring a modern supermarket, child care facility, and associated retail and commercial spaces led by Fabcot Pty Ltd and the Metro Inner Development Assessment Panel.
4,600 residents of Kewdale are employed, from a labour force of 4,796. Unemployment sits at 4.1%, with participation at 69.1%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.2% 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. The working-day population is estimated at 6,621, about 78% 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
A highly qualified labor force defines Kewdale, supported by substantial activity in industrial and manufacturing operations, a 4.1% jobless rate, and an estimated 1.4% expansion in employment over the preceding year. As of March 2026, working residents total 4,600, while the local unemployment rate sits 0.1% beneath the Greater Perth benchmark of 4.2%, accompanied by a participation rate generally matching the 69.9% recorded across Greater Perth. Census responses indicated that a modest 6.0% of local workers performed their duties from home, though the influence of Covid-19 restrictions must be acknowledged.
Key sectors employing local residents comprise retail trade, construction, as well as health care & social assistance. Transport, postal & warehousing demonstrates particularly notable local concentration, capturing a workforce share 1.8 times the broader metropolitan standard. By comparison, health care & social assistance accounts for only 12.6% of local employment, trailing the 14.8% observed throughout Greater Perth. The locality remains overwhelmingly residential and provides limited internal employment capacity, as evidenced by comparing the Census working population against resident workforce totals. Examining data from the ABS and SALM, AreaSearch determined that during the 12 months leading to March 2026, local jobs grew by 1.4% while the labor pool expanded by 2.0%, elevating the unemployment rate by 0.5 percentage points. By comparison, Greater Perth registered a 2.0% increase in employment alongside a 2.5% rise in the labor force, generating a 0.4 percentage point uptick. Additional perspective regarding prospective workforce requirements in Kewdale is provided by Jobs and Skills Australia national projections issued in Mar-26. These five- and ten-year forecasts have been applied against the local sector distribution to model future trajectory. Nationally, total employment is modeled to rise by 6.6% across five years and 13.7% over ten years, though expansion rates vary substantially between individual industries. Weighting these industry projections against Kewdale's specific occupational profile indicates local employment is poised to expand by 6.2% over five years and 13.0% over ten years (note that this represents a simple weighted extrapolation designed for comparative insight and excludes localized population models).

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 — 97 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (7,394 at the 2021 Census → 8,470 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.
