Statistical Area (SA2) Boundary Analysis

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.

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

Growth has averaged 0.6% a year over five years. 188 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. That puts 775 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

Based on analysis by AreaSearch, the population of Wilsonton is estimated at 14,669 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 557 individuals (3.9%) relative to the 14,112 people recorded during the 2021 Census. This adjustment is calculated using the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population of 14,669 along with 188 validated new addresses registered after the Census. The resulting population density stands at 774 persons per square kilometer, a figure that aligns closely with typical results across comparable locations analyzed by AreaSearch. Inward overseas migration was the primary driver of this growth, accounting for roughly 87.9% of the total population increase in recent times.

AreaSearch utilizes the 2024 population projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia, which use 2022 as their starting point. In instances where specific SA2 regions lack this coverage, or for periods extending beyond 2032, projections published by the Queensland State Government in 2023 (utilizing 2021 data) are substituted. Because these state-level figures do not include breakdowns by age group, AreaSearch distributes growth across age cohorts using the proportions from the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections, which are based on 2022 data. Looking ahead, population growth is projected to align with the lower quartile of national regional trends, with the population forecast to rise by 381 residents by 2041 compared to the most recent annual ERP statistics, representing a long-term increase of 2.6% over the 16 years.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Wilsonton

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

208 new dwellings have been approved in Wilsonton over the past five years, an average of 41 a year. That is 2.9 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 24 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 75% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 28, well below 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

Wilsonton averages approximately 41 residential development approvals annually, with a total of 208 homes approved during the 5 financial years spanning FY-21 to FY-25, and an additional 26 approved so far in FY-26. Over the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, each new dwelling built corresponded to an increase of 2.2 residents, pointing to consistent demand that helps sustain property values. The average construction cost for these new homes is $232,000, which sits below the regional standard and highlights more accessible pricing for buyers. Additionally, commercial development shows strong momentum, with $50.7 million in commercial project approvals logged during the current financial year.

Per capita building approvals in Wilsonton run at about half the rate observed in the Rest of Qld, placing the suburb in the 34th percentile of all locations analyzed nationwide, which limits choice for buyers and channels demand toward established properties. This rate also falls below the national median, suggesting a mature urban environment or potential planning restrictions. Of the new housing approvals, 75.0% are detached houses and 25.0% are attached residences, preserving the established low-density profile of the area and catering to buyers seeking spacious family residences. The quiet pace of local building activity is reflected in a ratio of 491 people in the area for every single residential approval. Long-term forecasts indicate Wilsonton will add 381 residents by 2041, according to the latest quarterly estimates from AreaSearch. Given current construction volumes, the incoming housing supply is expected to comfortably satisfy this demand, maintaining supportive conditions for home buyers while potentially accommodating growth levels that outpace current 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 — 188 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (14,112 at the 2021 Census → 14,669 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 (317011459). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.

Common questions about this page

Why can the Wilsonton SA2 boundary differ from the suburb boundary?
This page uses ABS Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2) boundaries for statistical reporting (e.g., census and ERP). SA2 areas can differ materially from Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, even when they share similar names, because they are defined for different purposes and often use different geographic boundaries.
Where does the data on this Wilsonton page come from?
AreaSearch compiles this page from official and industry sources — including ABS, Geoscience Australia, Valuer General, Provider directories, DEWR, JSA, State Transport Departments and ACARA — then aggregates them to the boundary shown and calculates the rankings, growth rates and benchmarks itself. Property sales come from the state valuation authority, rents from state rental bond lodgements, development applications from council and state planning portals, school data from ACARA, and public transport from state transport departments.
Is the Wilsonton data on this page just from the 2021 Census?
No. Most of this page is maintained well beyond the Census. Sourced entirely from current releases: development & approvals (Jun 2026), property sales & rents (Aug 2026), infrastructure projects (Aug 2026) and services & amenities (Jul 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to May 2026), age profile (to May 2026), employment (to Mar 2026), income (to FY 2023), education (to Aug 2026), transport (to Jul 2026) and health (to 2024). Population and age cohorts in particular are re-based to the latest ABS Estimated Resident Population rather than left at 2021 counts. Only housing, households and cultural diversity remain wholly Census-based, because no more current small-area dataset exists for those measures.
