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
Yeronga has an estimated 10,952 residents, up from 10,200 at the 2021 Census — a change of 752 people, or 7.4%. Growth has averaged 1.2% a year over five years. 177 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Overseas migration accounts for 77.0% of that increase. That puts 1,798 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 AreaSearch's evaluation, Yeronga's population stands at approximately 10,952 in May 2026. This represents a growth of 752 people (7.4%) relative to the 10,200 residents recorded in the 2021 Census. This population shift is deduced from ABS estimates indicating 10,950 resident inhabitants in June 2025 alongside 177 validated new addresses registered after the Census. The resulting density sits at 1,798 persons per square kilometer, exceeding the average benchmark across national locations assessed by AreaSearch. This 7.4% postwar Census expansion trails the national average of 9.3% by 1.9 percentage points, reflecting competitive growth trends.
Overall expansion was primarily underpinned by overseas migration, which represented around 77.0% of total gains, although interstate migration and natural growth also made positive contributions. AreaSearch incorporates ABS/Geoscience Australia projections released in 2024 with a 2022 baseline for each SA2. When these are unavailable, or for periods past 2032, Queensland State Government projections released in 2023 with a 2021 baseline are applied instead. Because these state figures omit age distributions, AreaSearch applies cohort weightings aligned with the ABS Greater Capital Region projections released in 2023 based on 2022 statistics. Demographic projections indicate the area will experience above median population growth relative to national statistical regions, with an anticipated addition of 1,555 persons by 2041 relative to recent ERP data, indicating a total expansion of 14.2% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
669 new dwellings have been approved in Yeronga over the past five years, an average of 133 a year. That places the area in the 82nd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 12 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 121 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 14% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 21, 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
Yeronga has averaged approximately 133 residential building approvals annually, accumulating 669 approved homes during the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25 and an additional 20 in FY-26. Because only 0.9 residents migrated to the district for every home constructed during the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, new housing supply is keeping pace with or outstripping demand, providing buyers with diverse options and establishing capacity for growth beyond current projections. These new homes carry an average construction value of $523,000, illustrating developer focus on high-end, premium segments. Additionally, commercial approvals worth $9.5 million have been logged in the current financial year, demonstrating steady investment in local commercial projects.
Yeronga's per-capita building activity is 79.0% higher than that of Greater Brisbane, providing purchasers with a broader range of options. This level of activity sits significantly above the national benchmark, showing high developer interest. The composition of new construction consists of 14.0% detached houses and 86.0% townhouses or apartments. High-density designs offer lower entry costs and cater well to downsizers, investors, and first-time buyers. This contrasts with the established residential mix, where houses currently make up 48.0% of properties, highlighting a reduction in developable land, shifting resident lifestyles, and a demand for varied housing options. There are roughly 240 people for every dwelling approval, indicating room for expansion. Based on the most recent quarterly estimate from AreaSearch, population projections indicate Yeronga will add 1,553 residents by 2041. Ongoing building volumes suggest housing supply will sufficiently accommodate this demand, establishing positive conditions for buyers and potentially supporting population growth above current projections.

6,734 residents of Yeronga are employed, from a labour force of 6,971. Unemployment sits at 3.4%, with participation at 73.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 9,697, about 89% 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
Yeronga features a highly qualified labor force with a notable concentration of professional services, an unemployment rate of just 3.4%, and an estimated job growth rate of 5.8% over the past year. In March 2026, 6,734 local citizens were employed, with the unemployment rate sitting 0.9% below the 4.3% reported for Greater Brisbane. Participation in the labor force is relatively typical, standing at 73.4% compared to 70.4% in Greater Brisbane. According to Census data, 28.1% of residents worked from home, though this figure may reflect the influence of COVID-19 lockdowns.
Local workers are primarily employed within health care & social assistance, professional & technical, and education & training sectors. Professional & technical services are heavily represented, with a local employment share 1.6 times higher than the regional average. Conversely, construction accounts for only 5.4% of the workforce, which is lower than the 9.0% average for Greater Brisbane. Census data comparing the local working population to the general population suggests a significant portion of residents travel outside the suburb for work, despite some local jobs being available. According to AreaSearch's evaluation of SALM and ABS statistics for the 12 months ending March 2026, the count of employed residents rose by 5.8% while the labor force expanded by 4.9%, resulting in a 0.8 percentage point reduction in the unemployment rate. Over the same timeframe in Greater Brisbane, employment grew by 3.2%, the labor force increased by 3.4%, and unemployment rose by 0.1 percentage points. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment projections from May-25 offer additional perspective on prospective demand trends in Yeronga. These five-year and ten-year national projections have been applied to the local workforce structure to model future patterns. Although total national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rates vary widely by industry. Weighting these projections to Yeronga's specific employment mix points to potential local job growth of 7.3% over five years and 14.8% over ten years, though this is a basic weighting exercise for illustration and does not incorporate local population forecasts.
Frequently Asked Questions - Employment
Median household income in Yeronga is $2,102 a week (about $109,000 a year), with median personal income at $1,083 a week. ATO records put median taxable income at $63,267 a year against an average of $89,797. The average runs 42% above the median, a wider spread than most areas and a sign of a concentrated group of high earners. Household income is from the 2021 Census; taxable income is from ATO Taxation Statistics for the latest financial year available, indexed forward using the ABS Wage Price Index.
Detail
AreaSearch's analysis of postcode-level ATO data for financial year 2023 indicates very high incomes in the Yeronga SA2, with a median of $63,267 and an average of $89,797. This is higher than the Greater Brisbane median of $58,236 and average of $72,799. Adjusting for a Wage Price Index increase of 11.36% since financial year 2023 yields estimated values of approximately $70,454 (median) and $99,998 (average) for March 2026. The 2021 Census confirms high personal, family, and household incomes, ranking in the 72nd to 85th percentiles nationally. The data indicates that 29.3% of the population (3,208 individuals) earn in the $1,500 - 2,999 range, comparable to the metropolitan average of 33.3% in the same bracket.
The significant concentration of high earners (34.4% earning over $3,000/week) indicates substantial financial capacity in the community. Residential costs consume 15.3% of income, yet strong earnings keep disposable income in the 73rd percentile, with the area ranking in the 8th decile on the SEIFA income index.

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 — 177 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (10,200 at the 2021 Census → 10,952 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.
