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
Burdekin has an estimated 7,980 residents, up from 7,658 at the 2021 Census — a change of 322 people, or 4.2%. Growth has averaged 0.5% a year over five years. Fewer than ten people live on each square kilometre, across a boundary that takes in surrounding rural land. Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.
Detail
According to research conducted by AreaSearch, the estimated headcount for Burdekin stands at approximately 7,980 as of Aug 2026. Comparing this to the 2021 Census tally of 7,658 people shows an expansion of 322 people (4.2%). This demographic shift is deduced from the ABS estimated resident population figure of 7,980 recorded as of June 2025 alongside 1 validated new addresses registered following the Census date. With a density of 1.6 persons per square kilometer, residents enjoy a spacious living setting. Burdekin outpaced the wider SA3 area (3.5%) with its 4.2% expansion rate post-2021 census, positioning the locality at the forefront of regional growth.
Inflows from overseas migration served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 71.2% of total population additions over recent timeframes, supplemented by positive contributions from natural growth and interstate migration. Projections published by ABS/Geoscience Australia in 2024 (anchored on a 2022 baseline) are utilised by AreaSearch for every SA2 zone. For localities outside this coverage or covering dates after 2032, Queensland State Government SA2 area projections (issued in 2023 utilising 2021 figures) are implemented. Because these state figures omit age-bracket breakdowns, AreaSearch applies proportional growth weightings sourced from the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023, drawing on 2022 benchmarks) across each demographic cohort. Looking ahead, this modeling indicates an overall demographic contraction, forecasting the local population will shrink by 947 persons by 2041. Even so, certain segments should register gains, most notably residents in the 85 and over age category, which is anticipated to climb by 77 people. See the age section for more details.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
50 new dwellings have been approved in Burdekin over the past five years, an average of 10 a year. That is 1.3 approvals per 1,000 residents. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Residential construction authorisations in Burdekin have averaged around 10 dwellings per year, yielding 50 homes across the past 5 financial years. With an inflow rate of 4 new residents annually for every completed residence across the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), local housing output is outstripped by incoming demand, tending to intensify buyer rivalry and exert upward pressure on prices, alongside an average building cost of $531,000 per new residence. Furthermore, approvals for commercial builds have reached $6.1 million this financial year, underscoring the predominantly residential orientation of the locality.
Relative to Rest of Qld, Burdekin registers roughly 62% of per-capita building activity and ranks within the 13th percentile of evaluated Australian regions, generating limited buying opportunities that reinforce demand for established housing stock. This volume similarly trails the national benchmark, pointing to a mature setting with potential planning constraints. Concurrently, detached houses make up the entire volume of newly approved residential development, preserving the established low-density landscape and catering to families prioritizing space. The ratio of 1193 people per dwelling permit highlights the quiet development landscape present across the locality. With demographic projections pointing to flat or declining population numbers, reduced housing pressure could emerge in Burdekin, fostering advantageous market conditions for purchasers.

3,682 residents of Burdekin are employed, from a labour force of 3,879. Unemployment sits at 5.1%, with participation at 58.3%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 4.5% 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 in Burdekin is evenly distributed across blue and white collar roles, underpinned by substantial representation across manufacturing and industrial operations alongside an unemployment rate of 5.1%. As of March 2026, employed residents count 3,682 people, while unemployment exceeds the Regional Qld benchmark of 3.9% by 1.2%, and the labour participation rate of 58.3% trails the Regional Qld level of 64.2%. Census figures indicate that just 11.7% of working residents performed their duties from home, an outcome that must be interpreted in light of Covid-19 restrictions. Agriculture, forestry & fishing, manufacturing, and health care & social assistance represent the primary sectors of employment for local residents.
Burdekin displays a pronounced concentration in agriculture, forestry & fishing, where the workforce concentration reaches 6.2 times the broader regional benchmark. Conversely, health care & social assistance accounts for merely 9.4% of resident jobs, trailing the 16.1% registered across Regional Qld. Although employment options exist locally, comparisons between the Census working population and overall resident numbers suggest a substantial portion of workers travel outside the area for employment. AreaSearch evaluation of ABS and SALM metrics indicates that over the 12-month period, the local labour pool shrank by 1.9% and total employment dropped by 2.7%, driving a 0.8 percentage points rise in unemployment. This diverged from Regional Qld, which recorded a 0.1% gain in employment, a 0.3% increase in the labour force, and a 0.1 percentage points uptick in unemployment. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide additional context regarding future labour requirements in Burdekin. These projections, spanning five and ten-year horizons, were applied to the local workforce composition to map future trends. While national figures project job growth of 6.6% across five years and 13.7% across ten years, individual sectors show substantial divergence. Applying these sectoral forecasts to the industry footprint of Burdekin suggests employment growth of 4.5% over five years and 10.6% over ten years (note that this weighting extrapolation is purely illustrative and excludes local demographic 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 — 1 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (7,658 at the 2021 Census → 7,980 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.
