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 Wynnum West - Hemmant is estimated at 17,190 in May 2026. This represents a growth of 1,509 individuals (9.6%) from the 15,681 residents recorded in the 2021 Census. This population shift is calculated using the ABS estimated resident population of 17,027 from June 2025 combined with 361 validated new addresses identified after the Census. The resulting population density stands at 1,401 persons per square kilometer, a figure that surpasses the typical average across the national locations analyzed by AreaSearch. With its 9.6% expansion rate since the 2021 census, Wynnum West - Hemmant outpaced both the broader SA3 area (7.1%) and the SA4 region, positioning it as a primary driver of growth in the vicinity.
This population rise was largely fueled by overseas migration, which accounted for approximately 61.3% of the total population increase in recent times, though other contributors such as interstate migration and natural population growth also remained positive. AreaSearch utilizes population projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for each SA2 area, which were published in 2024 using 2022 as the baseline year. For SA2 areas where these datasets are unavailable, as well as for the period after 2032, projections from the Queensland State Government released in 2023 (utilizing 2021 baseline data) are implemented instead. Because these state-level projections lack breakdowns by age category, AreaSearch distributes growth across age cohorts using proportional weightings derived from the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections (which are based on 2022 data). Factoring in these anticipated demographic transitions, the region is projected to experience a population rise that falls slightly below the national median for statistical areas. Specifically, the local population is projected to expand by 1,413 individuals by 2041 relative to the most recent annual ERP statistics, representing a total increase of 7.3% over the 16 years.

Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.4% nationally over five years.

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 workforce in Wynnum West - Hemmant is characterized by diverse industry representation and solid skills, featuring an unemployment rate of just 3.9% and an estimated annual job growth of 3.7%. Active workers numbered 9,713 as of March 2026, with the local unemployment rate sitting 0.4% below the 4.3% rate recorded in Greater Brisbane. Workforce participation remains standard at 73.2%, compared to 70.4% in Greater Brisbane. Census data indicates that a moderate 17.9% of the working population operated from home, though this figure may have been influenced by COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
Local residents are predominantly employed in the health care & social assistance, construction, and retail trade sectors. The neighborhood has a particularly strong concentration of workers in transport, postal & warehousing, with employment shares reaching 1.4 times the regional average. In contrast, the education & training sector is less represented, accounting for 7.2% of workers compared to the regional benchmark of 9.4%. Although local jobs are available, a comparison between the local working population from the Census and the number of local jobs suggests that a large portion of residents travel outside the area for employment. Based on AreaSearch's evaluation of SALM and ABS statistics, the area experienced a 3.7% rise in employment alongside a 4.1% expansion of the labor force over the 12-month period, which led to a 0.4 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. Over the same timeframe in Greater Brisbane, employment rose by 3.2%, the labor force grew by 3.4%, and the unemployment rate increased by 0.1 percentage points. National employment projections from May-25 compiled by Jobs and Skills Australia provide further context regarding future labor demand in Wynnum West - Hemmant. These five and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local industry mix to project regional employment trends. While employment nationwide is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rate of growth varies considerably by industry. Applying these sectoral growth rates to the local employment structure suggests that employment in Wynnum West - Hemmant will increase by 6.4% over five years and 13.3% over ten years, representing a basic weighted extrapolation for demonstration purposes that does not account for localized population changes.

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 — 361 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (15,681 at the 2021 Census → 17,190 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.
