Chart Color Schemes
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 investigations by AreaSearch, the population of Andergrove - Beaconsfield stands at approximately 17,261 as of May 2026. This represents an expansion of 1,437 people (9.1%) relative to the 2021 Census, which documented a population of 15,824 people. This shift is calculated using the estimated resident population of 17,169 published by the ABS for June 2025 alongside 352 validated new addresses registered since the Census date. Such a population size results in a density of 983 persons per square kilometer, which aligns closely with typical values observed across other analyzed areas.
The 9.1% growth rate recorded in Andergrove - Beaconsfield since the 2021 census outpaced the SA3 area (6.8%) and the SA4 region, positioning the locality as a primary driver of growth locally. This expansion was driven mostly by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 43.4% of the total population increase during recent timeframes, though natural growth and overseas migration also contributed positively. Projections from ABS/Geoscience Australia released in 2024 with a 2022 baseline are utilized by AreaSearch for each SA2 area. For locations lacking this coverage, and for any points past the year 2032, projections from the Queensland State Government released in 2023 and based on 2021 data are substituted. Because these state-level projections omit age breakdowns, AreaSearch applies age cohort distribution weights modeled on the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections (using 2022 baseline data). Based on these anticipated demographic trends, the locality is projected to experience population expansion exceeding the national median for regional areas, with an expected increase of 2,803 persons to 2041 relative to the most recent annual ERP statistics, representing a total rise of 15.7% over the 16 years.

9,030 residents of Andergrove - Beaconsfield are employed, from a labour force of 9,369. Unemployment sits at 3.6%, with participation at 67.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.0% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 13,762, about 80% 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 labor force of Andergrove - Beaconsfield is balanced between professional and manual roles, with a solid footprint in industrial and manufacturing fields, an unemployment rate sitting at just 3.6%, and estimated job growth of 4.3% over the prior year. Jobholders numbered 9,030 as of March 2026, with an unemployment rate 0.3% below the Regional Qld level of 3.9%, and a participation rate that is relatively typical (67.7% compared to Regional Qld's 64.3%). Census records indicate that a minimal 4.1% of residents worked from their homes, though the influence of pandemic restrictions should be kept in mind.
The primary sectors employing local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and mining. The concentration of mining jobs is especially high, registering at 3.1 times the regional average. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing is minor, employing 0.6% of workers compared to 4.5% across the region. Because this is a mainly residential zone, it appears to provide few local employment options, as shown by the comparison of Census working population to resident population. According to an analysis of SALM and ABS data by AreaSearch, the year leading to March 2026 saw employment expand by 4.3% and the labor force grow by 5.8%, which led to a 1.4 percentage points rise in the unemployment rate. This differs from Regional Qld, where employment grew by 0.1%, the workforce increased by 0.3%, and unemployment rose by 0.1 percentage points. National employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia issued in May-25 offer additional perspective on potential future demand in Andergrove - Beaconsfield. These five and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local workforce structure to model potential changes. 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 trends to the employment distribution of Andergrove - Beaconsfield indicates that local jobs should grow by 6.0% over five years and 12.9% over ten years (this represents a direct weighted extrapolation for comparison 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 — 352 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (15,824 at the 2021 Census → 17,261 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.
