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.

Detail
According to research conducted by AreaSearch, the resident count in Maddington - Orange Grove - Martin stands at approximately 17,734 as of Aug 2026. This figure represents an expansion of 2,729 people (18.2%) relative to the 15,005 people recorded during the 2021 Census. This upward trend is derived from the ABS estimated resident population figure of 17,572 recorded as of June 2025, coupled with 203 validated new addresses registered following the Census. With a population density of 332 persons per square kilometer, the locality offers ample space per resident alongside capacity for future residential infill.
Outpacing both the 9.5% nationwide benchmark and the wider SA3 region, the area's 18.2% expansion since the 2021 census positions it at the forefront of regional growth. Net overseas migration served as the primary growth engine, contributing roughly 82.1% of recent demographic expansion, while interstate arrivals and natural increases also added positively. Projections published in 2024 by the ABS and Geoscience Australia, utilizing 2022 as a base year, form the foundation of AreaSearch's SA2 population models. Where local data is missing or when projecting beyond 2032 across all districts, models incorporate age cohort growth rates from the latest ABS Greater Capital Region forecasts released in 2023 (based on 2022 figures). Looking ahead, the locality is anticipated to register expansion exceeding the median across nationwide statistical areas, adding 3,260 persons by 2041 based on the newest annual ERP metrics—an overall rise of 17.5% across the 16-year horizon.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
394 new dwellings have been approved in Maddington - Orange Grove - Martin over the past five years, an average of 78 a year. That places the area in the 87th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 4 approvals per 1,000 residents a year.

Detail
Residential building activity in Maddington - Orange Grove - Martin averages approximately 78 approved dwellings per year, culminating in 394 approved homes over the preceding 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26). Because an average of 5.7 new residents arrived annually for each home built over the last 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), underlying demand substantially outstrips new construction volume, an imbalance that typically heightens buyer competition and drives upward price movement. Concurrently, newly approved dwellings show an average expected construction cost of $312,000—a figure below the broader regional standard that indicates relatively accessible development costs.
Local commercial building activity also demonstrates resilience, with $41.2 million in non-residential development approvals logged during the current financial year. Per-capita building activity in Maddington - Orange Grove - Martin outpaces Greater Perth by 15.0% over the 5 year period, sustaining housing availability while reinforcing established asset values. The local construction pipeline remains heavily oriented toward traditional low-density family accommodation, with detached houses accounting for 83.0% of recent approvals compared to 17.0% across medium and high-density formats. With roughly 241 residents per residential approval, the local property development pipeline reflects an active, growing residential market. Long-term demographic forecasts from AreaSearch's latest quarterly estimates indicate that Maddington - Orange Grove - Martin will expand by 3,098 residents by 2041. Although residential construction activity is progressing at a steady rate alongside anticipated growth, property seekers may experience intensifying competition as local population numbers climb.

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 — 203 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (15,005 at the 2021 Census → 17,734 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.
