This growth was primarily driven by natural growth contributing approximately 44.5% of overall population gains during recent periods.

AreaSearch is adopting ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, released in 2024 with a base year of 2022. For areas not covered by this data and to estimate post-2032 growth, AreaSearch uses the growth rates by age cohort provided by the ABS in its latest Greater Capital Region projections (released in 2023, based on 2022 data). Future population trends indicate above median growth for national areas. Landsdale is projected to increase by 4,172 persons to reach a total of 21,788 by 2041, reflecting an overall increase of 23.0% over the 17-year period.
