Of the 180 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 25% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments.

10,597 residents of Mango Hill are employed, from a labour force of 11,011. Unemployment sits at 3.8%, with participation at 81.8%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.8% 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 14,089, about 77% 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.
