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
The Gap has an estimated 18,241 residents, up from 17,099 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,142 people, or 6.7%. Growth has averaged 0.9% a year over five years. Overseas migration accounts for 91.6% of that increase. That puts 1,488 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
According to research conducted by AreaSearch, the resident count in The Gap stands at roughly 18,241 as of Aug 2026. This marks an expansion of 1,142 people (6.7%) from the 17,099 people tallied during the 2021 Census. Such movement is calculated from the ABS estimated resident population of 18,230 recorded in June 2025 alongside 87 validated new addresses identified post-Census. With 1,487 persons per square kilometer, the locality's density exceeds the broader national benchmark evaluated across AreaSearch territories. Expanding by 6.7% post-Census, The Gap tracked closely behind the wider SA3 area (8.2%), trailing by only 1.5 percentage points and illustrating healthy underlying momentum.
Inflow from abroad served as the primary demographic driver, accounting for roughly 91.6% of recent net population additions. Projections generated by the ABS/Geoscience Australia (issued in 2024 utilizing 2022 as a base year) are implemented across SA2 territories by AreaSearch. In locations lacking this coverage or when forecasting beyond 2032, Queensland State Government SA2 area projections published in 2023 (utilizing 2021 data) are used instead. Because the state-level datasets do not break down numbers by age brackets, AreaSearch allocates age-specific weighting aligned with the ABS Greater Capital Region projections published in 2023 using 2022 figures. Looking at future demographic shifts, the total resident base is modeled to contract over this horizon, falling by 150 persons by 2041 under this framework. Conversely, particular demographic cohorts will expand, topped by residents aged 85 and over, whose numbers are forecast to climb by 508 people. Refer to the age section for further details.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
145 new dwellings have been approved in The Gap over the past five years, an average of 29 a year. That is 1.6 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 29 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 93% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Annual residential building approvals in The Gap have averaged approximately 29 dwellings, totaling 145 homes across the previous 5 financial years. Between FY-22 and FY-26, an average of 5.5 people entered the suburb for every newly constructed residence over the last 5 financial years, creating an environment where residential supply significantly falls short of demand, elevating market rivalry among purchasers and lifting prices. Newly constructed homes average an estimated build cost of $738,000, signaling that builders are targeting the higher-end, upscale market segment. Furthermore, commercial building approvals registered this financial year reached $1.4 million, underscoring an emphasis heavily geared toward residential use.
Per capita building volumes in The Gap lag substantially behind Greater Brisbane, sitting 60.0% below regional average per person. This limited flow of new dwellings generally bolsters buyer competition and values for established housing stock. Relative to national figures, construction activity is similarly subdued, reflecting local planning restrictions and the established character of the area. Recent dwelling approvals comprise 93.0% detached houses and 7.0% attached dwellings, maintaining the low-density suburban landscape and catering to purchasers seeking standalone homes with generous space. With roughly 799 people per dwelling approval, the neighborhood exhibits the profile of a mature residential market. Given that demographic modeling points toward a steady or decreasing resident base, pressure on local housing supply is expected to ease, creating more favorable conditions for prospective buyers.

Frequently Asked Questions - Infrastructure
Waterworks Road Mixed-Use Development
Council-approved mixed-use redevelopment of a 5,394sqm site comprising an 86-place childcare centre, health care services, 26 retirement units and 5 additional dwellings across three buildings. The property was sold by receivers in July 2025 following the receivership of K2M Investments No. 2 Pty Ltd. As of mid-2026, no construction has commenced and the approved scheme remains capable of being progressed or amended by the new owner.
Childcare Centre - 1019-1023 Waterworks Road, The Gap
The proposed childcare centre development application (A005271157) was refused by Brisbane City Council and the subsequent Planning and Environment Court appeal was dismissed in 2021. Brisbane City Council records continue to show the application as decided and refused, with no current approval or active redevelopment proposal for this site.
Tallowwood The Gap
Completed boutique development of 43 three-bedroom townhouses by Devcorp at The Gap, constructed by SandSky. The project features seven floor plans across a five-acre bushland setting with single or double garages, fully fenced patios, courtyard gardens, floor-to-ceiling sliding doors, reconstituted stone benchtops, and European kitchen appliances. Located approximately 8km west of Brisbane CBD.
The Quarry by Frasers Property Keperra
The Quarry is a 40-hectare masterplanned community by Frasers Property Australia, transforming a former granite quarry into a premier residential neighborhood.

Construction is ongoing with multiple stages, including the high-elevation 'Summit' and 'Promenade' collections, currently being delivered and sold.
Childcare Centre - 689 Waterworks Road & 6 Greenlanes Road, The Gap
Two previous impact assessable development applications for a two-storey childcare centre on the combined site were both withdrawn by the applicants after assessment. Brisbane City Council Development.i continues to list both applications as withdrawn and there is no current approval for a childcare centre on the site. More recent planning activity relates to lot reconfiguration rather than a childcare development.
Keperra Country Golf Club Residential Precinct
Master-planned residential community within Keperra Country Golf Club incorporating up to 450 new dwellings, including townhouses and low-rise apartments, while retaining the 27-hole golf course. Progressing with significant golf course and clubhouse redevelopment works.
9,430 residents of The Gap are employed, from a labour force of 9,762. Unemployment sits at 3.4%, with participation at 66.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.2% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 14,936, about 82% 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
The local labour pool in The Gap is characterized by advanced educational qualifications, considerable involvement in professional roles, and a low jobless rate of 3.4%. There were 9,430 residents employed as of March 2026, while the local unemployment rate sat 0.9% below Greater Brisbane's 4.3% benchmark. At 66.0%, workforce participation trails the 70.1% recorded for Greater Brisbane. In addition, Census records indicate that 33.8% of workers conducted their duties from home, an outcome that must be interpreted in light of pandemic-era restrictions. The primary sectors supporting local employment include health care & social assistance, professional & technical, as well as education & training.
Professional & technical roles represent a prominent local specialty, employing residents at a proportion 1.7 times the regional level. On the other hand, manufacturing accounts for just 3.3% of the local workforce compared to the broader regional figure of 6.4%. Because it is primarily a residential suburb, local job availability appears restricted when comparing the count of active workplace positions from the Census against resident worker figures. Analysis of SALM and ABS data by AreaSearch indicates that the labour force shrank by 2.5% and employment fell by 3.6% during the year to March 2026, which pushed unemployment up by 1.1 percentage points. In comparison, Greater Brisbane experienced a 3.2% rise in employment, a 3.4% expansion in the labour force, and a 0.1 percentage point increase in unemployment. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from Mar-26 provide additional context for anticipated future demand in The Gap. These forecasts span five and ten-year horizons and have been overlaid with the local employment profile to estimate growth trajectories. National employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and by 13.7% over ten years, though sectoral growth rates vary considerably. When these industry-specific forecasts are applied to The Gap's employment composition, local employment is expected to rise by 7.2% over five years and by 14.7% over ten years. This calculation uses a simple 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 (17,099 at the 2021 Census → 18,241 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 (304041103). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
