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
Seville Grove has an estimated 12,990 residents, up from 11,409 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,581 people, or 13.9%. Growth has averaged 2.1% a year over five years, faster than 82% of areas nationally. Overseas migration accounts for 55.4% of that increase. That puts 2,843 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
Based on AreaSearch's analysis, Seville Grove has a population of approximately 12,990 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 1,581 people (13.9%) compared to the 11,409 people recorded in the 2021 Census. The calculation is based on the ABS estimated resident population of 12,981 from June 2025 plus 15 validated new addresses identified since the Census. With this population level, the density stands at 2,842 persons per square kilometer, placing the suburb in the top quartile of all locations evaluated by AreaSearch nationwide. The 13.9% expansion rate since the 2021 census outpaced the national average (9.3%), establishing the suburb as a primary growth area in the region.
Oversea migration was the primary driver of this demographic expansion, accounting for roughly 55.4% of the total population growth in recent times. AreaSearch incorporates projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for each SA2 region, which were published in 2024 using 2022 as the baseline year. For SA2 regions lacking this specific dataset, and to estimate demographic shifts after 2032, AreaSearch applies age cohort growth rates from the latest ABS Greater Capital Region projections released in 2023 and based on 2022 statistics. Looking at future demographic trends, population growth is projected to be slightly below the median of areas analyzed by AreaSearch, with the locality expected to add 1,426 residents by 2041 according to recent annual ERP data, which represents a total increase of 10.9% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
72 new dwellings have been approved in Seville Grove over the past five years, an average of 14 a year. That is 1.2 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 10, well below that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Seville Grove averages approximately 14 building approvals for dwellings each year, with 72 residential units approved during the last 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, and 10 approvals logged during FY-26 so far. With an average of 17.9 new residents added for every constructed home over those 5 financial years between FY-21 and FY-25, housing supply is lagging demand by a wide margin, which typically intensifies buyer competition and drives upward pressure on prices. Meanwhile, new residential builds are averaging a construction cost of $161,000, which is below the average for the region and reflects the availability of lower-cost options for buyers.
Additionally, commercial development approvals valued at $1.7 million have been registered during this financial year, highlighting the predominantly residential character of the suburb. In comparison to Greater Perth, Seville Grove exhibits a much lower level of residential construction, running 89.0% below regional average per person. This constrained level of new additions generally supports demand and helps sustain values for existing homes. Construction activity also falls below the national average, pointing to the mature state of the suburb and suggesting possible planning constraints. The mix of new construction consists of 90.0% detached houses and 10.0% attached dwellings, maintaining the suburban character of the area with a focus on spacious family residences. The ratio of approximately 1299 people per dwelling approval confirms the established nature of the local market. Demographic projections indicate that Seville Grove will add 1,417 residents by 2041, according to the latest quarterly estimates from AreaSearch. If residential construction volumes remain at their current levels, the supply of new housing is likely to fall short of population growth, which will probably increase competition among buyers and support future price appreciation.

Frequently Asked Questions - Infrastructure
Eighth Road Upgrade
Major upgrade of Eighth Road between Armadale Road and Forrest Road to support the Wungong growth area. Works include a divided carriageway, cycle lanes, footpaths, drainage upgrades, underground power, landscaping, new roundabouts and coordination with the Armadale Road signalised intersection upgrade. Main Roads WA commenced service relocations in mid-2026 ahead of construction, while the City of Armadale continues delivery of the broader road upgrade.
Armadale Strategic Metropolitan Centre Redevelopment
A major urban transformation centered on the METRONET Armadale Line upgrade. The project involves elevating the rail line to remove level crossings and rebuilding Armadale Station as an elevated hub, which reopened for passenger services in October 2025. A key feature is the 14.8 million dollar Central Park, a new civic heart being developed under the elevated tracks, alongside 8 hectares of new public open space, nature play zones, and waterplay areas. The precinct redevelopment supports a projected population of 150,000 by 2046 and includes mixed-use commercial and residential opportunities.
Celsius Living Champion Lakes
A residential land subdivision of 104 lots in the established suburb of Champion Lakes, City of Armadale. Stage 1 (54 lots) was released and completed in 2025. Stage 2 (50 lots) has been fully secured and construction of civil works is underway, with titles anticipated for August 2026. Lots range from 313sqm to 541sqm and are located near the 55-hectare Champion Lakes Regatta Centre.
Champion Centre and Seville Grove Library Redevelopment
Redevelopment of the Champion Centre and upgrades to the adjacent Seville Grove Library to deliver culturally appropriate community facilities, flexible indoor areas, a digital hub and enhanced outdoor spaces connected to surrounding bushland. Works were funded by a Lotterywest grant and City municipal funds, and completed in 2019.
West of Rail Precinct
Approximately 10.84-hectare triangular area of under-utilised land bound by the Armadale Train Line to the east, Forrest Road and Fifth Road, planned to become an inner-city residential precinct with medium-density housing close to Armadale train station and town centre facilities. The precinct was normalized to City of Armadale planning control on 6 May 2022, with an Activity Centre Plan approved in August 2021 guiding future development. The ongoing METRONET Armadale Line transformation, including elevated rail and new station, will enhance connectivity and support precinct redevelopment.
Piara Waters Residential Development
Piara Waters continues to expand through multiple masterplanned residential estates. Construction remains active at Satterley's Aarya estate, which comprises around 400 homesites, approximately 5.1 hectares of parks and recreation space, and a new primary school planned to open in 2027. Earlier estates including Mirvac's Madox, Cedar Woods' Karmara and QUBE's Mason Green are largely sold out and established, while Stockland continues development within the wider Wildflower community.
Morgan Park Redevelopment
City of Armadale redevelopment of the 6.67 hectare Morgan Park precinct including a new multi-use sports pavilion, public toilets, expanded car parking, upgraded playspace, relocated sports lighting, reconfigured football and athletics facilities, exercise nodes and improved pedestrian connections. Site works are underway following design completion and contractor appointment, with staged construction continuing through 2026.
Sienna Wood
Sienna Wood is a masterplanned residential community in Hilbert and Haynes, WA, delivered by Stockland in partnership with DevelopmentWA. The estate will ultimately house almost 12,000 residents, with almost 40 percent of the land set aside for parks and natural conservation. The Sienna Wood Town Centre, anchored by a cafe, and the Shipwreck Park play space are now open, and the new Wungong Primary School has welcomed students. Construction of house and land packages continues across multiple stages, with land releases ongoing monthly.
6,572 residents of Seville Grove are employed, from a labour force of 7,080. Unemployment sits at 7.2%, with participation at 72.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.9% 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 10,003, about 77% 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
The local workforce in Seville Grove is evenly distributed between white-collar and blue-collar occupations, with a notable concentration in industrial and manufacturing sectors, an unemployment rate of 7.2%, and an estimated job growth rate of 1.7% over the past year. As of March 2026, there are 6,572 employed residents, while the unemployment rate is 3.0% higher than the Greater Perth average of 4.2%. Participation in the labor force is typical for the region, standing at 72.5% compared to 70.2% across Greater Perth. According to responses from the Census, a minor 3.9% of the workforce worked from home, although this figure should be interpreted in light of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
The major employment sectors for local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction. The community displays a strong concentration in transport, postal & warehousing, which accounts for a share of employment that is 1.8 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical services employ only 3.9% of local workers, which is below the 8.2% average across Greater Perth. The mismatch between the working population and the resident population from the Census suggests that this largely residential suburb provides few local employment opportunities. An analysis of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch shows that for the year ending March 2026, local employment grew by 1.7% and the labor force expanded by 2.0%, leading to a 0.3 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. This compares to Greater Perth, which saw employment expand by 2.0%, the labor force increase by 2.5%, and the unemployment rate rise by 0.4 percentage points. National employment forecasts published by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 offer additional context on future labor demand for Seville Grove. These five-year and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce profile to estimate potential growth. Nationally, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though rates vary significantly by sector. Applying these industry projections to the local employment mix suggests Seville Grove's employment could grow by 5.9% over five years and 12.7% over ten years, although this is a basic weighted calculation for illustration and does not incorporate local 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 May 2026, not a 2021 count (11,409 at the 2021 Census → 12,990 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 May 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.
