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
As of May 2026, the population of Rockhampton Surrounds - East stands at approximately 3,779 residents. This reflects an expansion of 272 individuals (7.8%) relative to the 2021 Census, which recorded 3,507 people. This upward trend is calculated using the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population of 3,754 and the identification of 121 validated new addresses following the Census. The density of the area is registered at 5.6 persons per square kilometer, ensuring a spacious residential environment. The local growth rate of 7.8% since the 2021 census outstripped both the SA3 area (7.0%) and the broader SA4 region, positioning the district as a primary growth driver.
The main driver of this expansion was interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 86.6% of the population increase, although natural increase and overseas migration also made positive contributions. Projections developed by the ABS and Geoscience Australia released in 2024 (using 2022 as the base year) are utilized for SA2 regions. For areas not covered by these datasets, or for periods extending beyond 2032, projections from the Queensland State Government released in 2023 (based on 2021 data) are applied. Because state projections lack age-specific breakdowns, local age cohort growth is weighted proportionally using the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections (based on 2022 data). Demographic trends indicate that the district is on track for above-average population growth compared to national regional areas, with projections suggesting an increase of 530 residents to 2041 based on the latest annual ERP statistics, representing a 13.4% rise over the 16 years.

Detail
The labor force in Rockhampton Surrounds - East comprises a balanced mix of white and blue collar workers, with the construction sector showing notable representation, and an unemployment rate of only 2.4%. As of March 2026, 1,944 residents are employed. The unemployment rate is 1.6% lower than the 3.9% recorded in Regional Qld, while participation rates are closely aligned with the Regional Qld average of 64.3%. Census data indicates that a modest 11.3% of the workforce worked from home, though this figure may be influenced by pandemic-related lockdowns. The primary employment sectors for local residents are construction, health care & social assistance, and mining.
The region displays a high concentration of mining jobs, with an employment share 3.0 times the regional average. Conversely, health care & social assistance accounts for only 12.0% of local employment, which is lower than the 16.1% average for Regional Qld.

This trend diverged from Regional Qld, where employment grew by 0.1%, the labor force expanded by 0.3%, and the unemployment rate rose by 0.1 percentage points. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia as of May-25 provide context for future labor demand in Rockhampton Surrounds - East. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to local employment profiles to model potential trends. While national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, trends vary by industry.

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 — 121 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (3,507 at the 2021 Census → 3,779 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 (308031218). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
