Statistical Area (SA2) Boundary Analysis

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.

DemographicsPopulation Growth in Macgregor (Qld)

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

Growth has averaged 1.4% a year over five years, faster than 76% of areas nationally. Overseas migration accounts for 95.6% of that increase. That puts 2,485 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

As of Aug 2026, the population of Macgregor sits at approximately 6,684 according to AreaSearch research. Compared to the 5,979 people counted during the 2021 Census, this represents an addition of 705 people (11.8%). This figure is derived from the ABS estimated resident population of 6,684 in June 2025 alongside 4 validated new addresses recorded post-Census. With 2,484 persons per square kilometer, the suburb's density falls into the upper quartile of all Australian areas evaluated by AreaSearch. Furthermore, Macgregor outpaced both state figures and the national average (9.5%) with its 11.8% expansion since the 2021 census, establishing itself as a regional growth frontrunner.

The influx was overwhelmingly underpinned by overseas migration, which made up roughly 95.6% of recent total population increases. Projections for SA2 districts published by the ABS/Geoscience Australia in 2024 (using 2022 as a base year) are incorporated into AreaSearch modeling. For remaining SA2 locations and projection intervals following post-2032, figures rely on 2021-based Queensland State Government SA2 estimates released in 2023. Because state forecasts do not provide age-specific breakdowns, AreaSearch applies cohort weightings aligned with 2022-based ABS Greater Capital Region projections published in 2023. Demographic outlooks place Macgregor within the top quartile of surveyed statistical areas for future expansion, projecting an increase of 2,475 persons to 2041 under latest annual ERP benchmarks, which translates to a 37.0% total gain across the 16 years.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Macgregor (Qld)

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

47 new dwellings have been approved in Macgregor (Qld) over the past five years, an average of 9 a year. That is 1.5 approvals per 1,000 residents. 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 Macgregor have run at approximately 9 dwellings per annum, delivering a total of 47 homes throughout the past 5 financial years. Across this timeframe (between FY-22 and FY-26), an average of 9.8 people entered the community for every home built, creating a scenario where local demand substantially outstrips new residential supply and traditionally places upward pressure on values while heightening buyer competition. Newly approved residences carry an average construction cost of $540,000, which sits above regional norms and points toward premium building standards. In addition, $5.0 million in commercial building approvals was lodged this financial year, reflecting a modest level of commercial construction activity.

Per capita construction activity in Macgregor is 76.0% below regional average per person compared to Greater Brisbane. This restricted delivery of new housing stock generally reinforces buyer demand and supports pricing across established homes. Building volumes also track well below the Australian benchmark, underscoring the mature profile of the neighborhood and indicating potential planning constraints. Furthermore, all recent building activity has centered on detached houses, maintaining the suburban streetscape and appealing to purchasers seeking standalone living spaces. A metric of approximately 702 people per dwelling approval confirms the established nature of the local market. According to demographic projections from the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate, Macgregor is set to add 2,475 residents through to 2041. Should current rates of home building persist, residential supply could fall short of incoming population numbers, potentially driving greater competition across the property sector and underpinning ongoing capital growth.

Is the Macgregor SA2 keeping up with housing demand?
With the population expected to increase by 2,475 people by 2041, around 825 new dwellings will be necessary.

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 — 4 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (5,979 at the 2021 Census → 6,684 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.

Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (303031061). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.

Common questions about this page

Why can the Macgregor (Qld) SA2 boundary differ from the suburb boundary?
This page uses ABS Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2) boundaries for statistical reporting (e.g., census and ERP). SA2 areas can differ materially from Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, even when they share similar names, because they are defined for different purposes and often use different geographic boundaries.
Where does the data on this Macgregor (Qld) page come from?
AreaSearch compiles this page from official and industry sources — including ABS, Geoscience Australia, Valuer General, Provider directories, DEWR, JSA, State Transport Departments and ACARA — then aggregates them to the boundary shown and calculates the rankings, growth rates and benchmarks itself. Property sales come from the state valuation authority, rents from state rental bond lodgements, development applications from council and state planning portals, school data from ACARA, and public transport from state transport departments.
Is the Macgregor (Qld) data on this page just from the 2021 Census?
No. Most of this page is maintained well beyond the Census. Sourced entirely from current releases: development & approvals (Aug 2026), property sales & rents (Oct 2026), infrastructure projects (Jul 2026) and services & amenities (Sep 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to Aug 2026), age profile (to Aug 2026), employment (to Mar 2026), income (to FY 2023), education (to Sep 2026), transport (to Jul 2026) and health (to 2024). Population and age cohorts in particular are re-based to the latest ABS Estimated Resident Population rather than left at 2021 counts. Only housing, households and cultural diversity remain wholly Census-based, because no more current small-area dataset exists for those measures.
