This analysis uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, which can materially differ from Statistical Areas (SA2) even when sharing the same name.
SAL boundaries are defined by Australia Post and the Australian Bureau of Statistics to represent commonly-known suburb names used in postal addresses.
Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census data collection and may combine multiple suburbs or use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Sales Detail
Agnes Water has an estimated 3,511 residents, up from 2,729 at the 2021 Census — a change of 782 people, or 28.7%. Growth has averaged 6.0% a year over five years, faster than 94% of areas nationally. 219 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 86.0% of that increase. Density is about 87 people per 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 evaluations combining broader regional ABS releases with address validations following the Census, the suburb of Agnes Water is assessed to have a resident count of approximately 3,511 as of Aug 2026. This equates to an expansion of 782 people (28.7%) compared to the 2021 Census, when 2,729 people were documented. Such growth draws upon the ABS Estimated Resident Population release from June 2025 pointing to 3,483 residents, alongside 219 validated new addresses confirmed subsequently. At 87 persons per square kilometer, the population density remains low, offering generous space per resident as well as scope for prospective expansion.
Outperforming both the SA4 region (7.6%) and its corresponding SA3 district, the suburb of Agnes Water stands as a prominent growth focal point with its 28.7% rise since the 2021 census. Inflows from interstate migration served as the primary growth engine by generating roughly 86.0% of total gains, while overseas arrivals and natural increase also delivered positive contributions. Projections utilized by AreaSearch for every SA2 territory originate from the ABS/Geoscience Australia dataset published in 2024 (using 2022 as baseline), turning to Queensland State Government SA2 series published in 2023 (utilising 2021 figures) for subsequent timeframes after 2032 or areas without coverage. Because state-level modeling omits age breakdowns, proportional distribution weights from the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region release (grounded in 2022 figures) are factored in across age brackets. Taking into account these demographic shifts, the suburb of Agnes Water is projected to register expansion slightly under the national non-metropolitan median, with combined SA2 models anticipating an uptick of 426 persons by 2041, representing a cumulative 11.3% climb across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
172 new dwellings have been approved in Agnes Water over the past five years, an average of 34 a year. That places the area in the 87th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 10 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 32 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 100% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 40, broadly in line with that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this Suburb (SAL) boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Examining ABS building approval statistics mapped across statistical boundaries, AreaSearch indicates that Agnes Water averages roughly 34 residential building consents per annum, totaling an estimated 172 homes approved over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 40 approved to date in FY-25. Over this same window between FY-21 and FY-25, an average of 5.6 people arrived annually for every new residence constructed, generating a notable undersupply relative to inbound demand, which typically intensifies buyer rivalry and upward pricing momentum alongside an average expected dwelling construction value of $564,000.
Additionally, non-residential building approvals have reached $1.5 million in the current financial year, demonstrating subdued commercial construction activity. Per capita building activity in Agnes Water outpaces Rest of Qld by 225.0%, expanding inventory options for purchasers. Every recent residential approval has consisted exclusively of detached houses, maintaining the low-density urban fabric and drawing buyers seeking spacious living environments. Logging approximately 94 people per dwelling approval, the locality displays typical traits of an active development corridor. Moving forward, projections derived from the most recent quarterly AreaSearch dataset indicate an influx of 398 residents in Agnes Water through to 2041. Under current construction trajectories, incoming residential supply appears well positioned to absorb demand, sustaining favourable buying environments and potentially accommodating growth beyond baseline forecasts.

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.
1,543 residents of Agnes Water are employed, from a labour force of 1,615. Unemployment sits at 4.5%, with participation at 55.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth, so in an area growing as fast as this one it understates the likely rise in local jobs. The working-day population is estimated at 2,765, 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
Workforce analysis by AreaSearch across statistical boundaries reveals a skilled local talent pool in Agnes Water featuring substantial representation across tourism and hospitality, alongside an unemployment rate of 4.5%. As of March 2026, employed locals tally 1,543, with joblessness sitting 0.5% above the 3.9% recorded across Regional Qld, while the local participation rate of 55.5% trails the 64.2% benchmark in Regional Qld. Census records also show 15.7% of working residents operating from home, an outcome potentially shaped by historical Covid-19 restrictions. The primary industry sectors employing local workers are accommodation & food, construction, and retail trade.
Concentration in accommodation & food is particularly pronounced, tracking at 2.1 times the wider regional baseline. Conversely, health care & social assistance accounts for only 7.1% of the Agnes Water labor market compared to 16.1% in Regional Qld. Comparing Census resident worker totals against the local workplace employment count indicates that this primarily residential area provides a limited volume of jobs within its own boundaries. Synthesized ABS and SALM metrics evaluated by AreaSearch show that in the 12 months to March 2026, the local workforce contracted by 3.1% alongside a 1.3% reduction in employment, yielding a 1.8 percentage points decrease in the unemployment rate. Over the same span, Regional Qld witnessed a 0.1% increase in employment, a 0.3% rise in the labour force, and a 0.1 percentage points rise in unemployment. Long-term industry trajectories from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide additional context on future labour demand across Agnes Water over five-year and ten-year spans. Across Australia, workforce expansion is projected at 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with performance varying widely by sector. Aligning these industry trends with the local employment distribution suggests local workforce growth of 5.8% over five years and 12.1% over ten years (a weighted illustrative model not incorporating local demographic forecasts).

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 — 219 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,729 at the 2021 Census → 3,511 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 (SAL30014). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
