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
Auchenflower has an estimated 6,224 residents, up from 5,670 at the 2021 Census — a change of 554 people, or 9.8%. Growth has averaged 1.1% a year over five years. Overseas migration accounts for 81.0% of that increase. That puts 4,901 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
AreaSearch indicates that the population of Auchenflower stands at approximately 6,224 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 554 people (9.8%) from the 5,670 residents recorded in the 2021 Census. The estimate is calculated using the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population of 6,222 alongside 13 validated new addresses registered since the Census. With a density of 4,900 persons per square kilometer, the locality ranks in the top 10% of all Australian areas analyzed, pointing to high demand for local land. The area's 9.8% expansion rate outpaced the national benchmark of 9.3%, positioning it as a regional leader in population growth.
This rise was largely powered by overseas migration, which was responsible for about 81.0% of the overall population growth in recent times. Projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia, published in 2024 with a 2022 baseline, are utilized for each SA2 region. For locations lacking this coverage, or for periods after 2032, projections from the Queensland State Government released in 2023 (based on 2021 data) are applied. Because these state-level figures do not specify age cohorts, weightings from the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections (using 2022 baseline data) are applied to estimate age distributions. Looking forward, population growth is anticipated to run slightly below the national median, with an estimated addition of 374 residents by 2041 relative to the latest annual ERP data, translating to a 6.0% overall increase over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
43 new dwellings have been approved in Auchenflower over the past five years, an average of 8 a year. That places the area in the 51st percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 1 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 44, running ahead of 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
Dwelling approvals in Auchenflower have averaged approximately 8 annually, accumulating to 43 residences over the last 5 financial years. In the current FY-26 period, 41 approvals have been registered. With an average influx of 7.5 new residents per constructed home between FY-21 and FY-25, demand continues to outstrip new supply, a trend that typically drives up property prices and heightens buyer competition. Newly built properties carry an average construction value of $645,000, indicating that developers are focusing on the higher-end, premium sector of the market. Furthermore, commercial approvals have reached $35.5 million this financial year, pointing to robust business development in the locality.
Compared to the broader Greater Brisbane region, Auchenflower displays limited construction activity, measuring 71.0% below the metropolitan average per capita. Although construction volume has risen lately, this constrained supply typically supports local valuations and demand. Development levels remain below the national standard, reflecting the established state of the suburb and suggesting possible zoning or planning constraints. Current residential builds consist of 25.0% detached houses and 75.0% attached dwellings. The high proportion of multi-unit designs provides accessible purchasing options and draws downsizers, investors, and first-time buyers. The ratio of roughly 496 people per approval highlights a stable, established market environment. Based on the most recent quarterly estimates from AreaSearch, Auchenflower is projected to add 372 residents by 2041. Should construction rates remain at their current levels, the supply of new housing may fall short of population gains, potentially intensifying buyer competition and reinforcing upward pressure on prices.

4,225 residents of Auchenflower are employed, from a labour force of 4,382. Unemployment sits at 3.6%, with participation at 78.8%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.4% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. 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 is highly qualified, with professional services representing a major sector, an unemployment rate of just 3.6%, and estimated job growth of 1.3% over the prior year. In March 2026, employed residents numbered 4,225, with the local unemployment rate sitting 0.7 percentage points below the Greater Brisbane average of 4.3%. The participation rate is exceptionally high at 78.8%, compared to 70.4% across Greater Brisbane. Census records show that a substantial 30.4% of the workforce worked from home, though this figure may have been influenced by pandemic-related lockdown measures.
Most working residents are employed in the professional & technical, health care & social assistance, and education & training sectors. The representation of professional & technical staff is particularly high, reaching 2.0 times the metropolitan average. Conversely, construction workers represent only 4.6% of the local workforce, compared to 9.0% across the region. At the time of the Census, the ratio of local jobs stood at 0.7 positions per resident, showing a higher-than-average availability of employment opportunities in the immediate area. AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics shows that during the 12 months ending March 2026, employment grew by 1.3% while the total labor force expanded by 2.3%, leading to a 0.9 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. In comparison, Greater Brisbane experienced a 3.2% rise in employment, a 3.4% expansion of the labor force, and a 0.1 percentage point increase in unemployment. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia (May-25) help illustrate prospective local workforce demands. These five and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local industry mix to model potential growth. Across Australia, total employment is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though rates vary by sector. Projecting these industry-specific trends onto Auchenflower's workforce indicates local employment could grow by 7.4% over five years and 14.9% over ten years, representing a simple weighted calculation that 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 — 13 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (5,670 at the 2021 Census → 6,224 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.
