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 research conducted by AreaSearch, the population residing in Greenbank - North Maclean stands at roughly 13,728 as of Aug 2026. This represents an expansion of 6,091 people (79.8%) compared to the 2021 Census total of 7,637 people. Such growth is calculated using the ABS estimated resident population of 12,691 recorded as of June 2025 alongside 2,988 validated new addresses registered following the Census. Consequently, population density sits at 188 persons per square kilometer, preserving ample living area alongside capacity for future residential projects. Surpassing both the state and the 9.5% national benchmark, the 79.8% post-2021 census expansion establishes Greenbank - North Maclean as a regional frontrunner in population growth.
Inward interstate migration served as the core catalyst, generating roughly 85.1% of recent net additions, complemented by positive contributions from natural increase and overseas migration. Projections utilised by AreaSearch originate from the 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia dataset structured on a 2022 baseline for individual SA2 regions. For intervals extending beyond 2032 or areas omitted from that release, projections published in 2023 by the Queensland State Government using 2021 figures are implemented. Because state forecasts do not incorporate age-specific breakdowns, AreaSearch incorporates age-cohort weighting ratios based on the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region release (derived from 2022 data). Demographic models indicate exceptional long-term expansion within the highest 10 percent nationwide, forecasting that the locality will add 7,364 persons to 2041 relative to recent annual ERP baselines, representing a cumulative 16-year increase of 46.1%.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
2,926 new dwellings have been approved in Greenbank - North Maclean over the past five years, an average of 585 a year. That places the area in the 96th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 43 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 586 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 99% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Residential building approvals across Greenbank - North Maclean have averaged approximately 585 per year, culminating in 2,926 homes approved over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26). Incoming resident volume has averaged 1.9 new residents per year per approved home over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), signalling an equilibrium between dwelling construction and local buyer demand that maintains market stability. Concurrently, average construction value per approved dwelling is $373,000, aligning with broader regional building costs. Per-capita construction volumes in Greenbank - North Maclean exceed Greater Brisbane levels by 148.0%, creating a wider selection of properties for purchasers.
This pace also substantially outstrips the national rate, reflecting pronounced developer appetite for the district. Standalone houses account for 99.0% of recent builds, while medium and high-density housing makes up just 1.0%, preserving a low-density suburban profile geared toward family households desiring larger allotments. The presence of roughly 17 people per dwelling approval underscores an expanding market environment. Projections indicate that Greenbank - North Maclean will welcome an extra 6,327 residents through to 2041 relative to the most recent quarterly estimate from AreaSearch. Provided current building momentum persists, incoming dwelling inventory appears well positioned to satisfy demand, fostering favorable buyer conditions and potentially enabling demographic growth to exceed existing forecasts.

5,893 residents of Greenbank - North Maclean are employed, from a labour force of 6,152. Unemployment sits at 4.2%, with participation at 62.9%. 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, so in an area growing as fast as this one it understates the likely rise in local jobs. The working-day population is estimated at 11,983, about 87% 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 local labour pool in Greenbank - North Maclean encompasses a diverse mix of professional and trades occupations, with the construction industry demonstrating notably high engagement, alongside a local jobless rate of 4.2%. As of March 2026, employed residents number 5,893, while unemployment sits 0.1% below the 4.3% recorded across Greater Brisbane; however, labour participation trails noticeably at 62.9% relative to 70.1% across the wider capital region. At the Census, remote workers accounted for a moderate 15.6% of employed locals, a figure influenced in part by Covid-19 restrictions. Resident workers are primarily engaged within construction, health care & social assistance, and retail trade.
Construction represents a distinct regional specialisation, recording a local concentration 1.7 times the wider regional baseline. In contrast, professional & technical roles account for only 4.8% of the local workforce compared to the regional proportion of 8.9%. Evaluating the number of local jobs against the resident workforce suggests that this predominantly residential precinct provides relatively few employment opportunities within its own boundaries. AreaSearch examination of ABS and SALM metrics indicates that during the 12 months to March 2026, the local workforce contracted by 2.7% as overall employment fell by 4.1%, resulting in a 1.4 percentage point rise in unemployment. By comparison, Greater Brisbane recorded a 3.2% gain in employment, a 3.4% rise in the labour pool, and an increase of 0.1 percentage points in the jobless rate. Looking forward, national employment projections published by Jobs and Skills Australia from Mar-26 provide context regarding potential workforce trends for Greenbank - North Maclean. Nationally, employment is projected to rise 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though trajectories vary by industry. Aligning these sector-level expectations with the industry composition of Greenbank - North Maclean indicates prospective local employment growth of 6.0% over five years and 12.6% over ten years (note that this is an illustrative weighted calculation that 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 — 2,988 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (7,637 at the 2021 Census → 13,728 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.
