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
Kingsley has an estimated 13,895 residents, up from 13,204 at the 2021 Census — a change of 691 people, or 5.2%. Growth has averaged 0.6% a year over five years. Overseas migration accounts for 100.0% of that increase. That puts 1,770 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 residing in Kingsley stands at approximately 13,895 as of Aug 2026. Compared to the 2021 Census tally of 13,204 people, this represents an expansion of 691 people (5.2%). This figure is derived from an ABS estimated resident population figure of 13,888 recorded as of June 2025 alongside 26 validated new addresses identified following the Census. Consequently, the local population density reaches 1,770 persons per square kilometer, outperforming the benchmark across nationwide locations evaluated by AreaSearch. Inflow from overseas migration served as the primary catalyst, effectively accounting for all net population expansion in recent times.
Projections published jointly by the ABS and Geoscience Australia in 2024 (using 2022 as their baseline) have been incorporated by AreaSearch for SA2 locations. For territories omitted from this dataset or when calculating projections beyond 2032, growth rates broken down by age brackets from the ABS Greater Capital Region release (published in 2023 utilizing 2022 figures) are applied. Broader demographic expectations indicate that Kingsley will record population gains slightly underneath the national SA2 median, with an anticipated addition of 1,268 persons through to 2041 according to current annual ERP figures, translating to an aggregate 16-year expansion of 9.1%.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
76 new dwellings have been approved in Kingsley over the past five years, an average of 15 a year. That is 1.1 approvals per 1,000 residents. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Residential building permits in Kingsley have averaged approximately 15 residential properties each year, totaling 76 homes across the prior 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26). Over these past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), an average of 5.7 people arrived annually for every newly constructed residence, creating a dynamic where inbound demand substantially outpaces fresh supply, typically driving property values upward and intensifying buyer interest. Newly built dwellings carry an average construction value of $372,000, aligning with regional building norms. In parallel, commercial development remains subdued, evidenced by only $1.5 million in commercial approvals logged during the current financial year.
Residential construction volumes in Kingsley trail Greater Perth considerably, tracking 57.0% below regional average per person. Such constrained construction levels often reinforce buyer demand and preserve values among established dwellings. This pace also falls behind the nationwide benchmark, underscoring local maturity and potential statutory planning limits. The composition of new construction comprises 93.0% detached houses alongside 7.0% townhouses or apartments, preserving the neighborhood's low-density character focused on spacious family living. With approximately 863 people per approval, Kingsley demonstrates the traits of a well-established suburb. According to demographic projections from the most recent AreaSearch quarterly update, Kingsley is slated to add 1,261 residents up to 2041. Should current construction volumes persist, newly added residential stock could fall short of resident inflows, likely heightening competition among prospective buyers and bolstering real estate values.

Local Planning Scheme No. 3 Amendment 15 - Woodvale Drive Residential Rezoning
Amendment 15 to the City of Joondalup's Local Planning Scheme No. 3 rezoned the western portion of Lot 36 (No. 95) Woodvale Drive, Woodvale from 'Rural' to 'Residential', applying a residential density code of R30. The amendment was gazetted on 10 June 2025, finalising the rezoning and enabling future residential subdivision of the site, estimated at approximately 36 lots. The final gazetted amendment applied only to the western portion of Lot 36; the adjoining Lot 28 parcel included in the original 2024 proposal was not part of the finalised rezoning.The eastern portion of Lot 36, reserved 'Parks and Recreation' under the Metropolitan Region Scheme, was retained outside the residential rezone, consistent with the amendment's intent to resolve zoning inconsistency near the Yellagonga Regional Park.

7,581 residents of Kingsley are employed, from a labour force of 7,754. Unemployment sits at 2.2%, with participation at 67.8%. 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. The working-day population is estimated at 11,216, about 81% 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 well-qualified local labour pool characterizes Kingsley, supported by robust participation across essential services, an unemployment rate standing at only 2.2%, and an estimated annual employment gain of 3.8%. As of March 2026, 7,581 residents are employed, and the local jobless rate sits 2.0% below the Greater Perth benchmark of 4.2%, while the participation rate remains slightly lower than regional standards (67.8% versus 69.9% across Greater Perth). Furthermore, Census figures indicate that a modest 10.7% of workers performed their roles from home, although prevailing Covid-19 restrictions at the time must be taken into account.
Local workers are predominantly engaged across health care & social assistance, education & training, alongside construction. Education & training represents a standout discipline within the suburb, generating an employment concentration 1.3 times the wider regional baseline. Conversely, mining accounts for a smaller footprint, engaging only 5.3% of the resident workforce compared against 7.0% regionally across Greater Perth. The balance between local jobs and resident workers suggests Kingsley functions largely as a dormitory residential community offering limited internal employment. According to AreaSearch evaluations of SALM and ABS figures, employment rose by 3.8% and the labour force grew by 3.8% in the year to March 2026, resulting in unemployment remaining largely unchanged. In contrast, Greater Perth experienced employment growth of 2.0% and labour force growth of 2.5%, accompanied by an increase in unemployment of 0.4 percentage points. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from Mar-26 provide additional perspective on anticipated future demand in Kingsley. These projections, which span five and ten-year periods, have been overlaid with local employment data to estimate growth trajectories. National employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though expansion varies considerably across different industry sectors. When these sectoral forecasts are applied to Kingsley's employment composition, local employment is expected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.5% over ten years. It should be noted that this represents a basic weighted extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not incorporate local 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 — 26 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (13,204 at the 2021 Census → 13,895 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.
