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
Landsborough has an estimated 22,382 residents, up from 15,652 at the 2021 Census — a change of 6,730 people, or 43.0%. Growth has averaged 8.7% a year over five years, faster than 96% of areas nationally. 1,671 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 75.1% of that increase. That puts 166 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
According to findings from AreaSearch, the resident count in Landsborough stands at roughly 22,382 as of Aug 2026. This represents an addition of 6,730 people (43.0%) following the 2021 Census, when 15,652 people were recorded. Such expansion is deduced from the ABS estimated resident population figure of 21,629 as of June 2025 alongside 1,671 validated new addresses registered since the Census date. With 166 persons per square kilometer, the resulting density leaves ample personal space and considerable capacity for future expansion. Outperforming both the nationwide benchmark and Rest of Qld (9.4%), Landsborough's 43.0% expansion since the 2021 census positions it at the forefront of regional growth.
Net interstate arrivals served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 75.1% of recent population increases, supplemented by positive additions across overseas migration and natural growth. Projections utilized by AreaSearch for every SA2 area draw upon ABS/Geoscience Australia data published in 2024 using 2022 as its baseline. Whenever specific SA2 areas lack coverage or for periods extending post-2032, Queensland State Government SA2 area projections released in 2023 (utilizing 2021 data) are adopted. Because these state figures do not break down numbers across age brackets, AreaSearch allocates proportional weighting by age cohort aligned with ABS Greater Capital Region projections published in 2023 from 2022 data. Looking ahead, future population projections indicate extraordinary expansion that ranks within the upper 10 percent of non-metropolitan regions across Australia; by 2041, latest annual ERP figures project the locality will gain 20,144 persons, culminating in an 86.6% rise across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
2,167 new dwellings have been approved in Landsborough over the past five years, an average of 433 a year. That places the area in the 98th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 19 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 434 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 89% 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 planning approvals in Landsborough have averaged approximately 433 dwellings each year, totaling 2,167 homes approved over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26). Because an average of 3.4 new residents per year were added for every dwelling constructed over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), housing demand is substantially outstripping new supply, which typically drives up local prices and intensifies buyer competition; meanwhile, the average construction value of new homes stands at $372,000—under the regional norm—pointing to relatively affordable building opportunities. Concurrently, $143.9 million in commercial approvals have been authorized during this financial year, underscoring strong commercial development momentum.
On a per-capita basis, Landsborough sees 87.0% more new home approvals relative to Rest of Qld, offering prospective purchasers substantial choice even as overall building velocity has moderated lately. This rate substantially exceeds national figures, demonstrating keen interest among developers. Detached houses account for 89.0% of recent construction while townhouses or apartments constitute 11.0%, maintaining the locality's low-density profile and attracting buyers searching for spacious freestanding homes. With roughly 97 people per approval, the district exhibits the hallmarks of an expanding growth corridor. According to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimate, demographic forecasts indicate that Landsborough will incorporate an additional 19,390 residents by 2041. While ongoing residential building is keeping pace with these projections, prospective buyers could encounter heightened market competition as local numbers expand.

11,281 residents of Landsborough are employed, from a labour force of 11,640. Unemployment sits at 3.1%, with participation at 68.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.7% 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 18,584, about 83% 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 in Landsborough is well-skilled, featuring strong representation in essential service sectors and an unemployment rate of merely 3.1%. As of March 2026, employed residents tally 11,281, while the unemployment rate tracks 0.8% below the 3.9% recorded across Regional Qld. Labor force participation remains standard at 68.5% compared to 64.2% in Regional Qld. Census records show that 15.2% of workers performed their jobs from home, though potential distortions from Covid-19 lockdowns should be kept in mind. Local workers are predominantly engaged across health care & social assistance, construction, and retail trade.
Construction represents a distinct area of local specialization, capturing an employment share 1.5 times the regional average. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 1.7% of local employment compared to 4.5% across the broader region. Discrepancies between the Census count of local working population and resident population indicate that internal employment opportunities within the boundary remain constrained. An examination of ABS and SALM figures by AreaSearch reveals that over the 12-month period, the local labor force contracted by 2.2% alongside a 2.8% decrease in employment, pushing the unemployment rate up by 0.6 percentage points. Over the same timeframe across Regional Qld, employment edged up by 0.1%, the workforce grew by 0.3%, and unemployment ticked up by 0.1 percentage points. Additional perspective on future labor requirements can be gathered from Jobs and Skills Australia national forecasts from Mar-26. Projected over five and ten-year horizons, these figures have been mapped against the local industry baseline to project prospective trajectories. Across Australia, total employment is projected to expand by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though trajectories diverge widely across specific sectors. Projecting these sectoral expectations onto the local employment makeup indicates that resident employment would increase by 6.7% over five years and 13.8% over ten years (note that this represents an illustrative weighting model and excludes 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 — 1,671 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (15,652 at the 2021 Census → 22,382 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.
