Chart Color Schemes
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
Logan Village has an estimated 10,090 residents, up from 8,608 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,482 people, or 17.2%. Growth has averaged 3.3% a year over five years, faster than 88% of areas nationally. 563 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 74.9% of that increase. That puts 136 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 research conducted by AreaSearch, the population residing in Logan Village stands at approximately 10,090 as of Aug 2026. This figure marks an expansion of 1,482 people (17.2%) compared with the 8,608 people recorded in the 2021 Census. Such growth is determined using an ABS estimated resident population figure of 9,963 as of June 2025 alongside 563 validated new addresses registered following the Census. The resulting population density is 135 persons per square kilometer, leaving substantial space per inhabitant and offering scope for prospective expansion. Outpacing both state and national growth figures (9.5%), Logan Village's 17.2% population rise since the 2021 census positions it as a regional growth hotspot.
Interstate migration served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 74.9% of total demographic additions in recent times, though natural increase and overseas migration also registered positive contributions. AreaSearch integrates ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 demographic models published in 2024 using 2022 as a base year. When assessing areas outside these models or looking past 2032, projections produced by the Queensland State Government in 2023 (utilising 2021 data) are implemented. Because these state forecasts lack breakdowns by age bracket, AreaSearch applies proportional growth weightings sourced from the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023 with 2022 data) across individual age segments. Looking ahead, future population expansion is projected to sit just under the median across Australian statistical areas, with local numbers forecasted to climb by 1,197 persons to 2041 based on recent annual ERP statistics, representing an overall increase of 10.6% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
548 new dwellings have been approved in Logan Village over the past five years, an average of 109 a year. That places the area in the 91st percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 11 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 110 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 87% 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 in Logan Village average roughly 109 dwellings per year, totalling 548 homes approved over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26). Strong buyer demand is evident with 2.8 people moving into the locality annually for each newly built home over the past 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), supporting local asset values. New residential builds carry an average construction value of $302,000, which sits below the broader regional standard and points to relatively affordable building opportunities. Furthermore, commercial building approvals have reached $15.5 million this financial year, reflecting a steady flow of non-residential development.
Relative to Greater Brisbane, Logan Village demonstrates subdued residential construction (50.0% below regional average per person). This lower level of new supply generally boosts demand and reinforces values across the established market. Nevertheless, relative to the national benchmark, the building rate remains substantially higher, highlighting healthy interest from developers. Recent residential development consists of 87.0% detached houses and 13.0% townhouses or apartments, preserving the low-density landscape and emphasising spacious family residences. With roughly 101 people per dwelling approval, the locality displays typical growth-corridor dynamics. Projections indicate that Logan Village will gain 1,070 residents by 2041 based on current quarterly figures from AreaSearch. At present rates of building activity, future residential supply appears positioned to satisfy demand effectively, generating advantageous conditions for property buyers and offering potential for expansion to outpace baseline forecasts.

Frequently Asked Questions - Infrastructure
Logan's Run Residential Development
Masterplanned residential community by Lennium Group in the Logan Village growth corridor. The estate is planned to deliver around 450 residential lots with landscaped open space and supporting community infrastructure. Public information indicates the project remains approved, with no clear evidence that full construction has commenced.
Logan Water Major Infrastructure Program
Ongoing Logan Water capital works program delivering new water and wastewater infrastructure, including trunk pipelines, pump station upgrades, water main relocations, network renewals and planning for the future Chambers Flat Wastewater Treatment Plant. The program supports population growth, improved water security and long-term servicing of Logan's southern growth corridor.
Yarrabilba and Greater Flagstone Infrastructure Funding Agreement
A $1.2 billion infrastructure funding agreement between Economic Development Queensland (EDQ), Logan City Council, and nine key developers to deliver trunk roads, water, and sewer infrastructure across the Yarrabilba and Greater Flagstone Priority Development Areas (PDAs) over the next 45 years. Combined, the two PDAs are planned to deliver up to 71,500 dwellings housing approximately 188,000 residents. Within Greater Flagstone, Peet's 1,631-lot residential precinct began construction in August 2025, with first homes anticipated by mid-2026, forming part of Peet's broader 12,000-lot Flagstone City masterplan.An updated Greater Flagstone Development Charges and Offset Plan was published in July 2026, confirming the agreement remains active and current.
Green Road Upgrade
Long-term road widening and improvement project to accommodate expected traffic growth in the area. Part of Logan City Council's Local Government Infrastructure Plan. Preliminary design complete, timeline for construction not yet confirmed.
Chambers Flat Wastewater Treatment Plant
A new wastewater treatment plant being delivered by Logan Water on a 144-hectare Council-owned site at Pleasant View Road, Chambers Flat, to service the fast-growing development corridor extending from Park Ridge through Logan Village to Yarrabilba. The facility is the anchor asset of the Yarrabilba and Park Ridge wastewater servicing scheme and replaces earlier reliance on the constrained Loganholme and Cedar Grove networks. Stage 1 is sized at approximately 40,000 to 60,000 equivalent persons, with the site masterplanned to an ultimate capacity of at least 150,000 EP across three stages.The plant will use membrane bioreactor technology, a biological treatment process with fine filtration, and is designed to treat up to five times average dry weather flow before any screened and de-gritted bypass to the Logan River. Around 90 hectares of the site is set aside for on-site irrigation reuse under the environmental licence issued by the Department of Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation, with drip irrigation to boundary screening vegetation and spray irrigation across central cropping areas. Supporting elements include a reduced-scale solar array occupying roughly three per cent of the site, a native tree buffer and wildlife corridor planting, an upgraded emergency flood access road from McPherson Road, and land set aside for expansion of the Mustangs Football Club fields and car park. In June 2025 the Queensland Government committed $135.98 million from the $2 billion Residential Activation Fund toward the $334.53 million project, with Logan City Council funding the balance including conveyance pipework, pump stations and the Park Ridge to Chambers Flat trunk pipeline. Detailed design is underway, early site works and buffer tree planting commenced in early 2026, and construction is expected to run for approximately three years. The plant will unlock more than 20,000 new dwellings in its first stage from 2028 and support in excess of 60,000 homes at ultimate capacity. Cultural heritage investigations are being carried out on the site in partnership with the Danggan Balun (Five Rivers) People, and a Community Reference Group established by Council continues to guide site masterplanning.
Chambers Flat Wastewater Treatment Plant
Logan Water is planning a new wastewater treatment plant at Chambers Flat to service 60,000 equivalent persons and unlock over 20,000 new homes across Yarrabilba, Park Ridge, and Logan Village. The Queensland Government has committed $135.98 million towards the $334.53 million project. Design is underway, with first effluent flows expected mid to late 2028.
Yarrabilba Central
Yarrabilba Central is the planned mixed-use town centre for the Yarrabilba Priority Development Area. The precinct will include a sub-regional shopping centre, retail, commercial offices, civic and community facilities, entertainment and higher-density residential development. During 2026, bulk earthworks and supporting road infrastructure continued while subdivision approvals progressed. Stage 1 development applications are being prepared with Economic Development Queensland as the project moves toward initial construction.
Riverleigh
A 7.49 hectare CFMG Residential Communities estate in Logan Reserve, expanded via the Glen Road II raise to a total of 143 house-and-land lots across four stages. The community sits alongside parkland with views to the Logan River, about 30 minutes south of Brisbane CBD. Stage 1 is nearing completion with registration expected in early 2026, while Stage 2 electrical and road signage works are progressing and Stage 3 road crossings, watermain and subbase gravel works are underway as of April 2026.
5,360 residents of Logan Village are employed, from a labour force of 5,522. Unemployment sits at 2.9%, with participation at 66.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.1% 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 8,427, about 84% 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 market in Logan Village features a diverse mix of blue-collar and white-collar occupations, highlighted by high participation in the construction sector and a low jobless rate of 2.9%. Working residents numbered 5,360 as of March 2026, while local unemployment sits 1.4% below Greater Brisbane's 4.3% benchmark. Labour force participation remains slightly lower than regional standards, standing at 66.4% compared to Greater Brisbane's 70.1%. Census records show that 15.1% of working locals operated from home, a figure influenced by Covid-19 restrictions. Major industries employing local residents comprise construction, retail trade, and health care & social assistance.
Local workforce concentration in construction is particularly pronounced, reaching 2.1 times the regional average. Conversely, health care & social assistance accounts for a smaller footprint locally at 12.0% of employment compared to 16.1% regionally. Comparing resident workers against jobs located within the district reveals that the community is primarily a residential area with limited local employment capacity. Analysis of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch shows that in the year to March 2026, the local workforce contracted by 2.6% alongside a 3.3% reduction in employment, raising unemployment by 0.7 percentage points. During the same timeframe, Greater Brisbane recorded a 3.4% rise in its labour force and a 3.2% rise in employment, while unemployment inched up 0.1 percentage points. National forecasts released by Jobs and Skills Australia in Mar-26 provide additional context regarding forward workforce demand. Projecting these industry forecasts across local employment shares suggests Logan Village could see job counts rise by 6.1% over five years and 12.7% over ten years, compared to wider national employment forecasts of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years (note that this weighting extrapolation is purely illustrative and does not factor in 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 — 563 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (8,608 at the 2021 Census → 10,090 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.
