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
Morayfield has an estimated 8,767 residents, up from 5,867 at the 2021 Census — a change of 2,900 people, or 49.4%. Growth has averaged 6.6% a year over five years, faster than 97% of areas nationally. 2,405 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 82.2% of that increase. That puts 352 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
AreaSearch indicates that Morayfield has a population of approximately 8,767 as of May 2026. This represents a 49.4% rise, or an additional 2,900 residents, from the 5,867 individuals recorded in the 2021 Census. This growth is calculated using the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population of 7,826 alongside 2,405 validated new addresses identified since the Census. Such a population size results in a density of 351 persons per square kilometer, indicating low density and room for potential expansion. The area's 49.4% increase since the 2021 census outpaced the national rate of 9.3% and the state average, establishing it as a regional growth leader.
The expansion was largely fueled by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 82.2% of the population gains, though all factors, including natural increase and overseas migration, contributed positively. Projections from ABS/Geoscience Australia released in 2024 with a 2022 baseline are utilized for each SA2 region. For SA2 regions lacking this dataset, or for projections extending past 2032, Queensland State Government projections from 2023 using 2021 data are substituted. Since the state datasets do not provide age-specific breakdowns, AreaSearch applies proportional growth allocations aligned with the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections based on 2022 cohort distributions. Looking ahead, demographic trends suggest rapid expansion that ranks in the top 10 percent of all Australian regions. Based on the most recent annual ERP data, the population is projected to expand by 7,240 individuals by 2041, representing a total increase of 71.8% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
1,274 new dwellings have been approved in Morayfield over the past five years, an average of 254 a year. That places the area in the 94th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 29 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 224 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 90% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 715, running ahead of 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
Morayfield has recorded an average of roughly 254 new residential approvals annually, totaling 1,274 homes over the previous 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, and an additional 656 during FY-26 so far. Over the past 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, approximately 1.7 new residents moved to the area for every home constructed, pointing to a balanced relationship between supply and demand that supports stable market conditions. The average construction cost for these new dwellings is $310,000. In addition, commercial approvals valued at $9.4 million have been logged during the current financial year, showing steady activity in commercial development.
Morayfield generates 170.0% more new home approvals per capita than Greater Brisbane, providing prospective buyers with a broader selection. This figure is significantly higher than the national benchmark, demonstrating substantial developer confidence. Local building trends favor detached houses, which make up 90.0% of approvals, while townhouses and apartments account for the remaining 10.0%, preserving the low-density suburban landscape favored by families. With approximately 16 residents for every dwelling approval, Morayfield exhibits characteristics of a growing community. According to population projections, Morayfield is set to add 6,299 residents by 2041 based on the most recent AreaSearch quarterly figures. Existing construction trends suggest that incoming housing stock will comfortably accommodate this growth, creating favorable buying opportunities and potentially supporting population growth that exceeds current forecasts.

3,772 residents of Morayfield are employed, from a labour force of 3,953. Unemployment sits at 4.6%, with participation at 62.2%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.0% 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 7,420, about 85% 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
Morayfield possesses a diverse workforce comprised of both professional and trade-based roles, with the construction sector being highly represented. The area has an unemployment rate of 4.6% and recorded a 3.9% increase in estimated employment over the past year. As of March 2026, there are 3,772 employed residents, with the unemployment rate sitting 0.3% higher than the 4.3% rate of Greater Brisbane. Furthermore, workforce participation is notably lower, registering at 62.2% compared to 70.4% in Greater Brisbane. According to Census data, a modest 15.1% of the workforce worked from home, though this figure may reflect the influence of Covid-19 restrictions.
The primary employment sectors for local residents are construction, health care & social assistance, and retail trade. Construction is particularly prominent, employing residents at 1.6 times the average rate for the region. Conversely, professional & technical roles are underrepresented, making up only 5.2% of the local workforce compared to 8.9% in Greater Brisbane. The comparison between the Census working population and resident population suggests this predominantly residential locality offers limited local employment opportunities. An analysis of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch shows that during the 12 months ending March 2026, local employment grew by 3.9% while the labor force expanded by 5.0%, causing the unemployment rate to rise by 1.0 percentage points. Meanwhile, Greater Brisbane recorded employment growth of 3.2% and labor force growth of 3.4%, with its unemployment rate rising by 0.1 percentage points. National employment forecasts from May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia provide further context for future trends. These five- and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local workforce structure to model potential growth. Across Australia, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though rates vary by industry. Applying these trends to the local industry mix yields an estimated employment increase in Morayfield of 6.0% over five years and 12.6% over ten years, using a basic weighted extrapolation for demonstration purposes without factoring in local population 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 — 2,405 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (5,867 at the 2021 Census → 8,767 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.
