Postcode 2761

Covers Colebee, Dean Park, Glendenning, Hassall Grove, Oakhurst and Plumpton.

A postcode. New South Wales reports rents by postcode and by council area, never by suburb, so a postcode is the smallest area we can show here.

Population grew +1.1% over the year to 30 June 2025, against +1.5% for Australia over the same period.

Natural increase was the largest component of that change.

Dwelling approvals were +39.3% against the twelve months before. Approvals are permission to build, not completed dwellings.

Completions over the same period were equivalent to 86% of commencements, for New South Wales. These figures compare pipeline flows and do not track individual approved dwellings through construction.

Achieved rents moved +3.2% over the year, against +5.9% for the middle postcode in New South Wales.

Each of these is a separate reading with its own rule and its own figures, set out under Housing Balance below. There is deliberately no single score: one number would hide which of them was doing the work.

At $650 a week, Postcode 2761 is higher than 30% of the 347 NSW postcodes we hold.

Half of new leases in Postcode 2761 were between $560 and $720 a week — a quarter came in under $560, and a quarter above $720.

Rents there are up 3.2% over the past year, slower than the typical NSW postcode (up 5.9%).

Based on 146 new leases. Enough to be meaningful, but a single unusual quarter will move it.

The most common new lease there was a three-bedroom house, at $650 a week across 59 of them.

What it costs by size

The same quarter, split the way New South Wales splits it. The figure at the top of this page blends all of these together, so it describes none of them exactly. A blank cell means the publisher reported nothing for that combination here — usually because there were too few new leases to publish.

The rest of Blacktown

Postcode 2761 is inside Blacktown, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics boundary correspondence. The council itself has a figure of its own, computed over every bond inside the boundary rather than averaged from these.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics publishes population and dwelling approvals by council area, not by postcode, and a postcode is not one of its statistical areas. Rather than report a neighbouring boundary’s figures as this market’s, neither is shown here. The council it sits in, Blacktown, has both.

Housing Balance

Where housing demand is coming from, how quickly supply is being delivered, and how rents are responding. Six readings, each with the figures behind it and the rule that turned those figures into a word. None of them says a market is short of housing: that needs household formation, which APRIQ does not hold, and is not estimated here.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics does not publish population for postcodes. The figures here are apportioned into Postcode 2761 from 3 statistical areas using the ABS population-weighted correspondence, so they are an estimate of this postcode rather than a measurement of it, and they are rounded to say so.

Demand

Moderate

How fast the population is growing, against the national rate.

Why?
Population growth, 2761+1.1%the year to 30 June 2025
Population growth, Australia+1.5%the year to 30 June 2025

Strong when growth is at least half a percentage point above the national rate, weak when at least half a point below, moderate in between. Population is one ABS instrument measured the same way everywhere, so a market compares to Australia.

Main population driver

Natural increase

Which component moved the population most over the latest year the ABS splits it.

Why?
Natural increase, 2761+292the year to 30 June 2025
Net internal migration, 2761−182the year to 30 June 2025
Net overseas migration, 2761+277the year to 30 June 2025

The largest of natural increase, net internal migration and net overseas migration by absolute size, so a large outflow is named rather than hidden inside a net total. This states which component was largest. It says nothing about why anyone moved.

Approved pipeline

Expanding

Whether dwelling approvals are running above or below the year before.

Why?
Dwellings approved, weighted into 2761 from the areas the ABS counts136June quarter 2026
The twelve months before, weighted into 2761 from the areas the ABS counts98a year earlier
Change on the year before, 2761+39.3%June quarter 2026

Expanding above +10%, contracting below −10%, stable in between, comparing twelve months of approvals against the twelve before them. An approval is permission to build, not a dwelling. Where a market is smaller than the areas the Australian Bureau of Statistics counts approvals for, this is a blend of those areas' own changes, weighted by how much of each the market covers — not a count of approvals here.

Housing delivery

Moderate

How much housing is being finished, against how much is being started.

Why?
Dwellings completed, New South Wales8,883March quarter 2026
Dwellings started, New South Wales10,373March quarter 2026
Completions as a share of commencements86%March quarter 2026

Strong at or above 95% of commencements, weak below 80%, moderate in between, over the same twelve months. Completions during the period compared with commencements during the period — these figures compare pipeline flows and do not track individual approved dwellings through construction.

Rental pressure

Low

How fast achieved rents are rising, against the rest of the state.

Why?
Rent change over a year, Postcode 2761+3.2%June quarter 2026
Rent change over a year, the middle postcode in New South Wales+5.9%June quarter 2026

High when rents rose at least one percentage point faster than the state, low when at least a point slower, moderate in between. Compared against the state rather than the nation because each bond authority defines its own series: changes compare, levels do not.

Evidence

Moderate

How much of this market's picture was measured for this market.

Why?
Demand evidenceapportioned by an official ABS correspondencehow it was made
Components present5 of 5on this page

High where the demand evidence was published for this geography and most components are present; moderate where it was derived through an official ABS correspondence; limited where it describes a larger area containing this market, or where components are missing.

Schofields, West - Colebee14,74349.0%
Glendenning - Dean Park8,317100.0%
Hassall Grove - Plumpton21,657100.0%

3 SA2 area(s) apportioned into this postcode by population (Mesh Block grid) share, ABS ASGS 2021 correspondences, population weighted (v2021, transformation v1). Quality of the mapping, as the ABS rates it: Acceptable. The result is an estimate of this postcode built from measurements of those areas, and is rounded rather than printed to the person.

Market signals

Four separate readings, each with the figures behind it and the rule that turned those figures into words. There is deliberately no single score: one number would hide which of these was doing the work, and a market with strong rental evidence and no population figure would score as though it had both. Every signal describes what has been measured — none of them is advice, and none says what will happen next.

Rental momentum

Rising more slowly than the middle of New South Wales

How rents here moved over a year, against the typical postcode in New South Wales.

Why?
Rent change over a year here+3.2%June quarter 2026 against a year earlier
The middle postcode in New South Wales+5.9%June quarter 2026 against a year earlier
Difference−2.7 percentage pointsJune quarter 2026 against a year earlier
Markets in the comparison347June quarter 2026 against a year earlier

The difference between this market’s one-year rent change and the middle change across every postcode the same publisher reports, in percentage points: 3 or more above is well above, 1 above is above, within 1 either way is in line. Changes are compared within one state because each bond authority defines its own series — movement may be compared between them, the rent itself may not.

Population pressure

Not enough evidence

How fast the population here is changing, against how fast Australia is changing.

No population estimate is published for this market at a geography the ABS uses.

Approved housing pipeline

Not enough evidence

How many dwellings this market approved over twelve months for every thousand residents, against the national rate. Approvals are permission to build, not completed dwellings.

Dwelling approvals are published by council area, and this market is not one.

Evidence quality

Adequate

How much weight the figures on this page can carry.

Why?
New leases behind the current figure146June quarter 2026
Quarters of history36to June quarter 2026
How currentThe latest quarter published anywhereJune quarter 2026
OriginAs the publisher published itJune quarter 2026
KnowabilityDated by the publisher’s own release timingJune quarter 2026

Strong needs 200 or more new leases behind the current figure, the most recent quarter published anywhere, and eight or more quarters of history. Adequate needs 50 leases and no more than one quarter behind. A withheld count cannot earn better than thin, because a suppressed number is unknown rather than small.

Where these numbers come from

The latest figures here are for June quarter 2026, which ended 30 June 2026. The next is September quarter 2026, ending 30 September 2026; it appears here once the publisher releases it, and we do not predict that date.

The rent figures here are published by NSW Department of Communities and Justice and used under an open licence. Any other figure on this page names its own publisher on the line it appears on. Every rent figure is either as published or arithmetic on figures as published. APRIQ models and estimates nothing: where a figure is a publisher’s own estimate — an estimated resident population is one — it is called an estimate where it is shown. Growth is measured between named quarters, never by counting back rows, because an area is published only when it clears the publisher’s reporting threshold. This page exists because Postcode 2761 has 146 bonds behind its current figure and 36 quarters of history; markets with less than that get no page rather than a thin one. Method, sources and licences.
