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
Hawthorne has an estimated 5,704 residents, up from 5,133 at the 2021 Census — a change of 571 people, or 11.1%. Growth has averaged 1.3% a year over five years, faster than 75% of areas nationally. Overseas migration accounts for 74.5% of that increase. That puts 4,104 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
Based on demographic evaluations from AreaSearch, the resident count of Hawthorne stands at approximately 5,704 as of May 2026. This represents an expansion of 571 individuals (11.1%) relative to the 2021 Census, which documented a total of 5,133 residents. This adjustment is calculated using the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population of 5,702 combined with 57 validated new addresses identified after the Census. This population size yields a density of 4,103 persons per square kilometer, placing the locality in the top 10% of all national territories analyzed by AreaSearch and highlights the high demand for local land.
The 11.1% expansion rate of Hawthorne since the 2021 Census outpaced the national baseline (9.3%) as well as the surrounding SA3 region, positioning it as a local growth outlier. The primary engine of this growth was overseas migration, which was responsible for roughly 74.5% of the total population gains in recent times. Projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia released in 2024, utilizing 2022 as a baseline, are used for SA2 areas. For localities omitted from this dataset or for timeframes beyond 2032, projections published by the Queensland State Government in 2023 (using 2021 data) are substituted. Because these state-level forecasts omit age cohort distributions, AreaSearch distributes growth across age segments using weights derived from the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections based on 2022 numbers. Looking ahead, population growth is projected to track slightly below the median of all locations monitored by AreaSearch, with the suburb expected to add 415 residents by 2041 relative to the most recent annual ERP data, representing a cumulative increase of 7.2% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
91 new dwellings have been approved in Hawthorne over the past five years, an average of 18 a year. That is 3.4 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 10, 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
Hawthorne averages roughly 18 residential building approvals per year, with a total of 91 units approved during the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25) and 10 approvals recorded so far in FY-26. Given that 3.9 new residents have been added for each completed dwelling over the past 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), demand outstrips new supply, a dynamic that typically fuels price appreciation and heightens buyer competition. Approved residential projects carry an average value of $837,000, signaling that developers are targeting the high-end market with premium housing options.
Additionally, commercial approvals worth $813,000 have been logged during the current financial year, reinforcing the primarily residential character of the suburb. In comparison to Greater Brisbane, per capita residential building approvals in Hawthorne run at approximately 67%, placing the suburb in the 33rd percentile of all locations analyzed nationwide, which translates to fewer options for prospective buyers and bolsters demand for established homes. This activity level is also lower than the national benchmark, reflecting a mature market environment and indicating potential constraints on new development. The composition of new approvals is 67.0% detached houses and 33.0% townhouses or apartments, offering a diversifying product mix that accommodates different budgets, from family residences to smaller, more affordable dwellings. The ratio of roughly 504 people for each dwelling approval highlights a highly established market structure. According to population projections, Hawthorne is set to add 413 residents by 2041, based on the most recent quarterly estimates from AreaSearch. Current building volumes suggest that the supply of new housing will be sufficient to satisfy this demand, which should create favorable purchasing conditions for buyers while potentially supporting growth levels that run ahead of current projections.

3,712 residents of Hawthorne are employed, from a labour force of 3,808. Unemployment sits at 2.5%, with participation at 81.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.2% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 4,436, about 78% 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 workforce is highly educated, featuring a strong concentration of professionals, a low unemployment rate of 2.5%, and an estimated job growth rate of 1.7% over the preceding year. As of March 2026, there are 3,712 employed residents, and the unemployment rate sits 1.8% below the Greater Brisbane average of 4.3%. Furthermore, labor force participation is exceptionally high at 81.0%, compared to 70.4% across Greater Brisbane. Census data indicates that 30.3% of workers operated from home, though this figure may reflect the influence of COVID-19 restrictions. The primary employment fields for residents are professional & technical, health care & social assistance, and education & training.
The suburb exhibits a distinct concentration in professional & technical services, with its share of employment running 1.7 times higher than the metropolitan average. Conversely, manufacturing accounts for only 3.7% of the local workforce, which is lower than the Greater Brisbane level of 6.4%. A comparison of the locally employed Census workforce against the resident population indicates that this largely residential area offers few employment opportunities within its own boundaries. AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics shows that during the 12 months ending March 2026, local employment grew by 1.7% while the labor force expanded by 2.3%, leading to a 0.6 percentage point rise in unemployment. In comparison, Greater Brisbane saw employment grow by 3.2% and its labor force expand by 3.4%, with unemployment rising by 0.1 percentage points. National employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia released in May-25 provide context for future local demand. These five- and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local workforce composition to estimate growth trajectories. Nationally, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though individual sector growth rates vary. Projecting these industry trends onto the local employment structure suggests that Hawthorne's workforce could grow by 7.2% over five years and 14.5% over ten years, representing a simple weighted extrapolation for illustrative purposes that does not account for local population dynamics.

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 — 57 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (5,133 at the 2021 Census → 5,704 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.
