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.

Detail
According to the analysis by AreaSearch, the population of Paradise Point - Hollywell stands at approximately 10,749 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 758 individuals (7.6%) relative to the 2021 Census, which recorded 9,991 residents. This trend is calculated using the ABS estimated resident population of 10,736 from June 2025 alongside 79 validated new addresses registered after the Census. The resulting population density reaches 1,899 persons per square kilometer, a figure that sits above the national average for locations evaluated by AreaSearch. With its 7.6% rate of growth since the 2021 census, Paradise Point - Hollywell outpaced the broader SA3 area (7.0%), positioning it as a regional growth leader.
The primary driver of these population gains was overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 78.8% of the total increase during recent times. Projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia, published in 2024 with 2022 as the baseline, are utilized by AreaSearch for each SA2 area. For localities not represented in this dataset, and for any projections extending past 2032, Queensland State Government projections from 2023 (utilizing 2021 baseline data) are substituted. Because the Queensland state data does not detail specific age categories, AreaSearch allocates growth weightings proportionally based on the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023, using 2022 baseline statistics) across each age bracket. Looking ahead, a substantial population surge is anticipated for this locality, placing it in the top quartile of Australian non-metropolitan zones. Driven by the most recent annual ERP data, the population is projected to expand by 2,525 individuals by 2041, representing a total increase of 23.4% over the 16 years.

When compared to the Rest of Qld, construction activity in Paradise Point - Hollywell is moderately elevated, tracking 34.0% above the regional per capita average over the 5 year period, which helps maintain a balance of buyer choices while supporting existing home values, even though development pace has slowed lately. The composition of new developments is split between standalone houses at 45.0% and medium to high-density options at 55.0%. This shift toward denser housing structures offers affordable entry points and attracts downsizers, investors, and first-time buyers.

According to the latest quarterly estimates from AreaSearch, population projections indicate that Paradise Point - Hollywell will add 2,512 residents by 2041. Given the current pace of construction, residential supply may struggle to keep up with this population increase, which could intensify competition among buyers and drive up property prices.

5,517 residents of Paradise Point - Hollywell are employed, from a labour force of 5,639. Unemployment sits at 2.2%, with participation at 59.6%. 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. The working-day population is estimated at 8,931, 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
Paradise Point - Hollywell benefits from a skilled labor force, with particularly strong representation in the construction sector, a low unemployment rate of 2.2%, and an estimated job growth rate of 3.5% over the past year. In March 2026, there were 5,517 employed residents, and the local unemployment rate was 1.8% lower than the Regional Qld level of 3.9%. However, the labor force participation rate of 59.6% was somewhat lower than the Regional Qld average of 64.3%. Census data indicates that a moderate 21.3% of the workforce worked from home, though this figure may have been influenced by COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
The primary employment sectors for residents are construction, health care & social assistance, and retail trade. The local workforce has a notable concentration in construction, with its employment share measuring 1.4 times the regional average. In contrast, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 0.5% of employment, compared to the regional average of 4.5%. A comparison of the Census working population against the resident population indicates that this mostly residential district offers limited local job opportunities. An analysis of SALM and ABS statistics by AreaSearch shows that during the year leading up to March 2026, the number of employed individuals rose by 3.5% and the total labor force expanded by 3.2%, leading to a decrease in the unemployment rate by 0.2 percentage points. This performance contrasted with Regional Qld, which recorded a 0.1% rise in employment, a 0.3% increase in the labor force, and a 0.1 percentage point rise in unemployment. National employment forecasts released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 offer additional context regarding future workforce requirements in Paradise Point - Hollywell. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local industry mix to model potential growth trends. On a national level, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though these rates vary considerably across different industries. Applying these national industry trends to the local employment structure suggests that Paradise Point - Hollywell could see employment growth of 6.7% over five years and 13.5% over ten years, noting that this is a basic weighted projection for illustration that does not account for specific local population growth forecasts.

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 — 79 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (9,991 at the 2021 Census → 10,749 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.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (309031239). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
