Statistical Area (SA2) Boundary Analysis

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.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Roebuck

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

51 new dwellings have been approved in Roebuck over the past five years, an average of 10 a year. That places the area in the 50th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 4 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.

Detail

Residential construction authorizations in Roebuck have run at roughly 10 new dwelling approvals per annum, accumulating to 51 homes throughout the preceding 5 financial years. Across this 5 financial years timeframe (spanning FY-22 through FY-26), an average intake of 2.7 new residents per year occurred per home completed, demonstrating healthy underlying buyer interest that bolsters local real estate. Builders are delivering residences with an average construction value of $597,000, underscoring an emphasis on higher-end, premium housing products. Concurrently, commercial building approvals have reached $6.3 million during this financial year, pointing to a restrained non-residential development pipeline.

Roebuck maintains a moderately stronger building pace than Rest of WA (running 19.0% above regional average per person across the 5 year period), preserving healthy market availability while protecting established property values. Furthermore, fresh residential construction has focused exclusively on standalone homes, reinforcing the locality's uncrowded, low-density fabric and providing spacious family properties. A metric of 496 people for every dwelling approval highlights the subdued, tranquil pace of building in the district. Longer-term modeling indicates Roebuck will absorb 318 residents leading up to 2041 (benchmarked against the newest AreaSearch quarterly estimate). Based on ongoing residential delivery, housing supply appears well placed to satisfy incoming demand, creating constructive purchasing dynamics and potentially supporting growth beyond baseline expectations.

Jobs & IndustryEmployment Trends in Roebuck

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

884 residents of Roebuck are employed, from a labour force of 1,030. Unemployment sits at 14.2%, with participation at 49.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.5% 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. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.

Detail

The local labour market in Roebuck comprises an even distribution of blue- and white-collar roles alongside healthy representation across key public and essential services, accompanied by an unemployment rate of 14.2% and annual job creation estimated at 5.7%. By March 2026, employed locals numbered 884 residents, whereas the jobless rate sat 10.7% higher than the 3.5% reported across Regional WA, highlighting capacity for improvement alongside subdued workforce engagement (49.7% locally versus 65.4% throughout Regional WA). Census data also indicated that only 7.5% of workers carried out their duties from home, an observation that should be viewed in light of Covid-19 restrictions.

Primary employment sectors for local workers comprise education & training, agriculture, forestry & fishing, as well as accommodation & food. In particular, education & training shows heavy local concentration, engaging workers at 2.0 times the regional average. Conversely, mining represents a minor component of the local workforce at 3.1%, trailing the 11.7% observed across the region. Comparisons between the resident tally and Census working population figures suggest local job generation remains limited within the immediate boundary. AreaSearch assessment of combined ABS and SALM metrics demonstrates that during the 12 months leading to March 2026, resident employment advanced by 5.7% against a 3.2% increase in the total labour force, driving down joblessness by 2.1 percentage points. This trend outshone Regional WA, where total employment dipped by 0.1%, the workforce grew by 0.3%, and the unemployment rate increased 0.4 percentage points. Longer-term hiring expectations from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide additional context on future labour needs. Projecting these five-year and ten-year industry trajectories onto the local industry makeup outlines potential expansion paths. Nationwide employment is anticipated to climb by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though sector performances vary widely. Calibrating these broader forecasts to Roebuck's resident industry composition suggests local payrolls could rise by 5.5% over five years and 12.0% over ten years (noting this illustrative weighting exercise excludes micro-level population forecasts).

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 — 15 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,310 at the 2021 Census → 2,678 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 (510011266). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.

Common questions about this page

Why can the Roebuck SA2 boundary differ from the suburb boundary?
This page uses ABS Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2) boundaries for statistical reporting (e.g., census and ERP). SA2 areas can differ materially from Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, even when they share similar names, because they are defined for different purposes and often use different geographic boundaries.
Where does the data on this Roebuck page come from?
AreaSearch compiles this page from official and industry sources — including ABS, Geoscience Australia, Valuer General, Provider directories, DEWR, JSA, State Transport Departments and ACARA — then aggregates them to the boundary shown and calculates the rankings, growth rates and benchmarks itself. Property sales come from the state valuation authority, rents from state rental bond lodgements, development applications from council and state planning portals, school data from ACARA, and public transport from state transport departments.
Is the Roebuck data on this page just from the 2021 Census?
No. Most of this page is maintained well beyond the Census. Sourced entirely from current releases: development & approvals (Aug 2026), property sales & rents (Sep 2026), infrastructure projects (Jul 2026) and services & amenities (Jul 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to Aug 2026), age profile (to Aug 2026), employment (to Mar 2026), income (to FY 2023), education (to Aug 2026), transport (to Jul 2026) and health (to 2024). Population and age cohorts in particular are re-based to the latest ABS Estimated Resident Population rather than left at 2021 counts. Only housing, households and cultural diversity remain wholly Census-based, because no more current small-area dataset exists for those measures.
