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
Telina - Toolooa has an estimated 6,837 residents, up from 6,387 at the 2021 Census — a change of 450 people, or 7.0%. Growth has averaged 0.9% a year over five years. Natural increase accounts for 42.3% of that increase. That puts 291 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, research from AreaSearch indicates that Telina - Toolooa has an approximate population of 6,837. Compared to the 6,387 people recorded in the 2021 Census, this marks an expansion of 450 people (7.0%). This shift is derived from the ABS estimated resident population figure of 6,828 recorded as of June 2025 alongside 87 validated new addresses registered following the Census date. With a density ratio of 290 persons per square kilometer, the locality offers ample room per resident and capacity for additional building. Telina - Toolooa's post-census expansion of 7.0% is within 0.6 percentage points of the broader SA4 region (7.6%), highlighting solid growth dynamics.
Natural increase served as the primary contributor, generating roughly 42.3% of total population additions in recent periods, though inward overseas migration and interstate migration both made positive contributions. Projections for each SA2 locality are sourced from ABS/Geoscience Australia datasets published in 2024 using 2022 as their starting point. For remaining SA2 districts and timeline horizons following 2032, Queensland State Government projections released in 2023 (utilising 2021 baselines) are applied. Because these state forecasts lack age bracket segmentations, AreaSearch utilizes proportional age-group weightings consistent with ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023, utilizing 2022 figures). Factoring in these prospective demographic adjustments, the community is slated for expansion exceeding the median of national non-metropolitan areas, adding 1,005 persons by 2041 relative to latest annual ERP population figures, amounting to a 14.6% rise across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
87 new dwellings have been approved in Telina - Toolooa over the past five years, an average of 17 a year. That places the area in the 56th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 2 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Residential building consents across Telina - Toolooa have averaged approximately 17 dwellings per year, culminating in 87 homes over the prior 5 financial years. With an average of 3.4 new residents per year recorded for each completed residence across the preceding 5 financial years (between FY-22 and FY-26), local additions fall considerably short of demand, typically escalating buyer rivalry and intensifying cost pressures. Meanwhile, fresh properties carry an average construction figure of $438,000—under the regional norm—pointing toward relative affordability. Furthermore, commercial development approvals reached $916,000 during the current financial year, underlining the district's predominantly residential focus.
Per capita building approvals in Telina - Toolooa trail the Rest of Qld by 17.0%, placing the suburb within the 57th percentile among nationally evaluated markets, even with construction picking up pace recently. Volumes also sit below nationwide benchmarks, pointing to an established urban footprint and possible planning restrictions. Detached houses accounted for 88.0% of recent construction while medium and high-density housing comprised 12.0%, preserving a low-density neighborhood fabric centered around spacious family dwellings. An estimated ratio of 383 people in the area per dwelling approval highlights this subdued development landscape. Demographic projections indicate Telina - Toolooa will welcome 996 residents through to 2041, based on the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate. Should dwelling creation maintain its current tempo, additions to housing stock may fall short of demographic expansion, which could heighten buyer rivalry and reinforce property valuation growth.

Comprehensive redevelopment of Harvey Road sports facilities, including Marley Brown Oval. The precinct will feature six full-size rectangular fields, a premier 2,000-seat grandstand, and capacity for up to 10,000 spectators with TV broadcasting capabilities. It will support grassroots local and regional sports participation, while attracting major state and national events such as NRL games to the Gladstone Region.
Clinton Industrial Estate
Economic Development Queensland is constructing the Byelle Precinct at Clinton Industrial Estate, delivering 27 fully serviced medium-impact industrial lots ranging from about 4,000 sqm to 10,000 sqm. Civil works including roads, kerbing, services, lighting and landscaping are progressing, with land release expected in late 2026. The precinct is intended to support manufacturing, freight, logistics and advanced industry close to the Port of Gladstone.
Brookview Estate
Brookview Estate is a resort style master planned residential community in Glen Eden, Gladstone. Originally developed by Latitude Development Group as a gated community title estate, the project was planned for around 250 freehold home sites with staged land releases around a private residents club featuring pools, gym, function room, barbecue areas, playgrounds, landscaped parklands, walkways and cycleways. The original developer entered external administration and the balance of the estate land and recreation centre were sold to new owners from 2017 onward, but the subdivision, roads and lifestyle facilities are now in place and the area has matured into an established suburban neighbourhood with most lots built out and only infill housing occurring on remaining vacant sites.
West Gladstone Social Homes
Construction of 13 new social homes in West Gladstone designed for single people, couples, young people, people with disability, and seniors. Six homes are being built to Platinum and Gold level accessibility standards as per Social Housing Design Guidelines. The development replaces two older social homes, maximizing land use to deliver more homes for people in need. Part of the Queensland Government's Homes for Queenslanders plan to deliver one million more homes, including 53,500 social homes.
Port of Gladstone Gatcombe and Golding Cutting Channel Duplication Project
The Port of Gladstone Gatcombe and Golding Cutting Channel Duplication Project (GGCCDP) involves duplicating the existing Gatcombe and Golding Cutting channels in the outer harbour by deepening and widening them to 16.1 metres depth and 200 metres width over approximately 15 kilometres, enabling safe two-way passage for larger vessels under all weather and tidal conditions. The project includes dredging approximately 12.85 million cubic metres of seabed material, constructing reclamation bund walls for long-term dredged material placement, and relocating navigational aids.EIS approvals were granted by Queensland and Australian Governments in 2020, with final project plans approved in 2025. The first construction stage - the Northern Land Expansion Project bund wall at Fisherman's Landing - commenced in August 2025. Channel dredging works will proceed progressively based on industry demand.
Gladstone Project
Powerlink Queensland's Gladstone Project is a critical multi-stage transmission network reinforcement program to ensure electricity reliability and security as the Gladstone Power Station prepares for anticipated closure. The project supports industrial decarbonisation and the integration of renewables in the Central Queensland area. Stage 1 involves the Calvale to Calliope River 275kV transmission line and substation expansions. Stage 2 includes the Bouldercombe to Larcom Creek line and the proposed new Gladstone West Substation. The Final Assessment Report was submitted in June 2025, with Stage 1 main construction works expected to commence in mid-2026 pending formal approvals.
Clinton Vessel Interaction Project
The Clinton Vessel Interaction Project widened the Clinton Channel by about 100m to reduce vessel interaction risks such as mooring breaks or collisions, involving the dredging of approximately 800,000m3 of material to enhance safe navigation for outbound vessels in the Port of Gladstone.
3,677 residents of Telina - Toolooa are employed, from a labour force of 3,832. Unemployment sits at 4.0%, with participation at 72.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.2% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 5,391, about 79% 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
Telina - Toolooa features an even distribution of blue and white collar roles, characterized by an established industrial and manufacturing footprint and an overall unemployment rate of 4.0%. As of March 2026, 3,677 residents are in work, with local joblessness tracking 0.1% above the 3.9% recorded for Regional Qld, while labor participation reaches an elevated 72.0% versus 64.2% across Regional Qld. Census data revealed a modest 3.5% working from home, though historical Covid-19 restrictions provide relevant context. The primary employment sectors for local workers consist of manufacturing, construction, and health care & social assistance.
Manufacturing shows notable local concentration, with worker representation standing at 3.0 times the broader regional benchmark. Conversely, health care & social assistance is under-indexed, engaging 10.2% of Telina - Toolooa's workforce relative to 16.1% across Regional Qld. Comparing resident counts with local Census job numbers suggests the suburb functions primarily as a dormitory area with constrained commercial opportunities internally. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS data, the labour force in Telina - Toolooa dropped by 5.0% during the year to March 2026, with employment falling by 4.0%, which led to a 1.0 percentage point reduction in unemployment. In contrast, Regional Qld saw employment rise by 0.1%, the labour force grow by 0.3%, and unemployment increase by 0.1 percentage points. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from Mar-26 provide additional context for anticipated future demand in Telina - Toolooa. These projections span five and ten-year horizons and have been aligned with the local employment structure to estimate potential growth trajectories. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, sectoral growth varies considerably. When these industry-specific forecasts are applied to Telina - Toolooa's employment composition, local employment is expected to rise by 5.2% over five years and 11.6% over ten years, though this is a basic weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not incorporate localised 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 — 87 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (6,387 at the 2021 Census → 6,837 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 (308051538). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
