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 from AreaSearch, the resident count in Mandurah - East stands at approximately 8,251 as of Aug 2026. This represents an expansion of 1,652 people (25.0%) compared to the 2021 Census tally of 6,599 people. That updated figure is derived from the ABS estimated resident population of 7,984 recorded as of June 2025 alongside 652 validated new addresses identified following the Census. The local population density equates to 205 persons per square kilometer, indicating generous living space and capacity for prospective development. Outpacing both state figures and the national average (9.5%), Mandurah - East's 25.0% post-2021 census growth rate positions it as a standout regional growth center.
Inbound interstate migration served as the core engine of this demographic expansion, accounting for roughly 75.4% of total population additions over recent timeframes, though natural growth and overseas arrivals also made positive additions. Projections for each individual SA2 area published by ABS/Geoscience Australia in 2024 (using 2022 as a base year) are incorporated into AreaSearch's modeling. For locations omitted from this dataset, as well as for all area projections extending post-2032, AreaSearch applies age cohort growth rates from the most recent ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023, based on 2022 data). Anticipated demographic trends indicate that local expansion will track above the national median for statistical areas, with expectations that the population will increase by 1,421 persons to 2041 relative to latest annual ERP figures, corresponding to a total gain of 14.0% over the 16 years.

3,528 residents of Mandurah - East are employed, from a labour force of 3,642. Unemployment sits at 3.1%, with participation at 53.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.3% 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 6,866, about 83% 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
Mandurah - East features an even distribution between white-collar and blue-collar employment, bolstered by prominent industrial and manufacturing sectors. The local jobless rate sits at a modest 3.1%, alongside an estimated 8.0% gain in employment over the preceding year. As of March 2026, 3,528 residents are actively employed, with local unemployment sitting 1.1% lower than the Greater Perth benchmark of 4.2%. However, the local labor participation rate of 53.6% trails the Greater Perth mark of 69.9%. Census records indicate that only 8.0% of local workers operated from home, though pandemic lockdown dynamics should be noted.
The primary sectors employing local residents are mining, construction, and health care & social assistance. Local workforce concentration is especially pronounced in mining, where resident employment is 2.1 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical roles account for only 3.5% of local employment, trailing the Greater Perth figure of 8.2%. The ratio of Census working population against resident population highlights that this predominantly residential district provides limited workplace opportunities within its own boundaries. Analysis from AreaSearch using SALM and ABS figures shows that employment grew by 8.0% while the labour force expanded by 8.8% during the year to March 2026, leading to a 0.7 percentage point increase in unemployment. Greater Perth saw employment rise by 2.0% and the labour force grow by 2.5%, accompanied by a 0.4 percentage point increase in unemployment. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from Mar-26 provide additional context for future demand in Mandurah - East. These projections span five and ten year periods and have been overlaid with local employment data to project growth trends. The national forecast indicates a 6.6% expansion in employment over five years and a 13.7% increase over ten years, though sectoral growth varies considerably. When these industry projections are applied to Mandurah - East's employment structure, local employment is expected to grow by 5.3% over five years and 11.8% over ten years. This calculation uses a simple weighting method 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 — 652 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (6,599 at the 2021 Census → 8,251 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.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (502011026). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
