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
Dayboro has an estimated 10,322 residents, up from 9,213 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,109 people, or 12.0%. Growth has averaged 1.8% a year over five years, faster than 78% of areas nationally. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 50.6% of that increase. Density is about 25 people per 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
According to the analysis by AreaSearch, the population of Dayboro stands at approximately 10,322 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 1,109 people (12.0%) compared to the 2021 Census, which documented a population of 9,213 people. This population shift is calculated using the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population of 10,103 combined with 86 validated new addresses registered since the Census. The resulting population density is 25 persons per square kilometer, which indicates a low-density environment with substantial personal space. The 12.0% expansion rate of Dayboro since the 2021 census was faster than the national average (9.3%) and the wider SA3 area, positioning it as a primary growth node in the region.
This growth was driven mostly by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 50.6% of the population increase over recent times, though all demographic indicators including overseas migration and natural growth registered positive contributions. AreaSearch incorporates projections from ABS and Geoscience Australia for every SA2 area, utilizing the 2024 release based on a 2022 baseline. For SA2 regions excluded from this dataset, as well as for the timeframe after 2032, projections from the Queensland State Government released in 2023 and based on 2021 numbers are implemented. Since these state-level projections lack age breakdown details, AreaSearch allocates cohort growth weights using the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections (utilizing 2022 baseline figures) for individual age groups. Based on these demographic forecasts, the locality is set to experience an above median population growth rate relative to other Australian statistical areas, with a projected expansion of 1,382 persons by 2041 relative to the latest annual ERP statistics, representing a cumulative increase of 11.3% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
250 new dwellings have been approved in Dayboro over the past five years, an average of 50 a year. That places the area in the 73rd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 5 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 28 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 96% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 36, 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
Dayboro averages approximately 50 residential building approvals annually, translating to 250 homes over the last 5 financial years. In the current FY-26 period, 33 approvals have been logged. With an average of 3.4 new residents per year relocating per constructed home during the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), demand outpaces new supply, which typically drives up values and intensifies competition among buyers, while the typical value of new home construction is $285,000. Furthermore, $2.2 million in commercial building approvals have been logged during this financial year, indicating a heavy emphasis on residential expansion.
Compared to Greater Brisbane, Dayboro exhibits a moderately higher volume of construction activity (25.0% above regional average per person over the 5 year period), which provides choices for purchasers while supporting existing property values, even though the pace of building has slowed lately. The composition of new projects is 96.0% detached houses and 4.0% attached dwellings, which maintains the low-density character of the locality and appeals to buyers looking for larger properties. With approximately 275 people per dwelling approval, Dayboro displays a developing market profile. Looking forward, Dayboro is projected to add 1,163 residents by 2041 (starting from the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate). Based on ongoing construction volumes, the pipeline of new housing should suffice to satisfy demand, creating a balanced environment for purchasers and potentially paving the way for growth that outpaces current predictions.

5,798 residents of Dayboro are employed, from a labour force of 5,956. Unemployment sits at 2.7%, with participation at 71.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.5% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 8,229, 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
Dayboro has a qualified workforce with a high concentration of workers in essential service sectors, an unemployment rate of only 2.7%, and estimated employment growth of 0.7% over the preceding year. As of March 2026, there are 5,798 employed residents, and the unemployment rate is 1.7% lower than the Greater Brisbane benchmark of 4.3%, with workforce participation matching the Greater Brisbane level of 70.4% closely. According to Census records, a moderate 22.8% of workers performed their duties from home, though the context of Covid-19 restrictions must be factored in. The major employment sectors for local citizens are construction, health care & social assistance, and education & training.
The area exhibits a notable employment concentration in construction, where its share of jobs is 1.6 times the regional benchmark. Conversely, accommodation & food services has a small footprint, employing 4.6% of workers compared to 6.7% across the region. The data comparing Census working population to resident population indicates that the locality has a limited number of job opportunities within its own boundaries. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics, employment numbers grew by 0.7% and the size of the labour force expanded by 0.4% in the year ending March 2026, leading to a 0.3 percentage point reduction in the unemployment rate. Over the same period, Greater Brisbane saw employment rise by 3.2% and its labour force grow by 3.4%, resulting in a 0.1 percentage point increase in unemployment. National employment projections published in May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia provide further context regarding future demand trends for Dayboro. These five and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local workforce structure to model potential growth trends. Globally, national employment is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though these figures vary widely across individual sectors. Applying these industry-level projections to the local employment distribution in Dayboro suggests local employment will rise by 6.5% over five years and 13.4% over ten years (note this is a basic weighted extrapolation for demonstration purposes 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 — 86 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (9,213 at the 2021 Census → 10,322 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.
