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.

Annerley has an estimated 13,103 residents, up from 11,891 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,212 people, or 10.2%. Growth has averaged 1.3% a year over five years. Overseas migration accounts for 71.0% of that increase. That puts 4,550 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 demographic assessments of ABS regional updates and subsequent home addresses confirmed by AreaSearch post-Census, the suburb of Annerley has an estimated residency of 13,103 people in May 2026. This represents a gain of 1,212 individuals (10.2%) from the 2021 Census, which recorded 11,891 residents. This shift is calculated from a local population of 13,088, modeled by AreaSearch using the latest ABS ERP release (June 2025) along with 33 verified new addresses added post-Census. Such occupancy yields a density of 4,549 persons per square kilometer, placing the suburb within the highest 10% of countrywide locations tracked by AreaSearch and highlights the local land as a highly sought-after commodity.
The expansion rate of 10.2% since the 2021 census paced ahead of the nationwide figure (9.3%), positioning the locality as a leading growth zone. The main driver of this expansion was migration from abroad, which was responsible for roughly 71.0% of the overall population rise over the recent timeframe. Projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia released in 2024 with a 2022 benchmark are utilized by AreaSearch for each SA2. For locations missing this information, or for times past 2032, figures from the Queensland State Government released in 2023 using a 2021 baseline are substituted. Because these state-level figures lack age cohorts, AreaSearch distributes growth weightings proportionally to match the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections (using a 2022 baseline) for each age bracket. Looking at future demographic shifts in the suburb of Annerley, the local population is expected to grow at a pace exceeding the national statistical area median, expanding by 2,226 individuals by 2041 according to collective SA2 projections, showing an overall rise of 16.9% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
125 new dwellings have been approved in Annerley over the past five years, an average of 25 a year. That places the area in the 50th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 2 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 12, well below 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
According to AreaSearch reviews of building approvals from regional data, Annerley averages approximately 25 residential building approvals annually, which equates to an estimated 125 dwellings over the last 5 financial years. In the current FY-26 period, 11 approvals have been documented so far. With an average of 6.7 individuals entering the area for every new dwelling constructed over the past 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), demand outstrips new building completions, typically pushing up values and intensifying buyer rivalry, with new residential projects averaging a construction cost of $616,000, showing a focus by developers on upscale, premium properties.
Furthermore, commercial approvals worth $7.8 million have been registered this financial year, pointing to a quiet commercial building sector. Recent building works consist of 37.0% freestanding houses and 63.0% multi-unit dwellings. This orientation toward higher-density homes provides cheaper buying options and draws downsizers, property investors, and first-time buyers. The suburb averages approximately 743 residents for every residential approval, pointing to a mature property market. Projecting forward, Annerley is expected to add 2,211 citizens by 2041 (starting from the most recent quarterly estimate by AreaSearch). With current construction trends, new dwelling completions might struggle to match population increases, which could worsen competition among buyers and underpin rising prices.

8,822 residents of Annerley are employed, from a labour force of 9,222. Unemployment sits at 4.3%, with participation at 80.4%. 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 9,987, about 76% 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 workforce is highly educated, featuring significant employment in professional services, a jobless rate of 4.3%, and an estimated 5.4% expansion in jobs over the past year, according to AreaSearch regional figures. In March 2026, 8,822 local citizens were employed, matching the Greater Brisbane unemployment rate of 4.3%, while the workforce participation rate was exceptionally high (80.4% versus 70.4% for Greater Brisbane). Census records show a moderate 23.5% of working residents performed their duties from home, though the influence of Covid-19 restrictions must be kept in mind. The primary employment fields for working locals are health care & social assistance, education & training, and professional & technical.
The locality displays a high concentration in professional & technical jobs, running at 1.4 times the regional standard. In contrast, construction jobs are underrepresented at 5.5% compared to the regional standard of 9.0%. This largely residential zone offers few local jobs relative to its working population, as shown by comparing Census employment counts to local resident counts. Based on AreaSearch research of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated from surrounding regions, employment rose by 5.4% while the labor pool expanded by 4.9% during the 12 months ending March 2026, resulting in a 0.5 percentage point drop in the jobless rate. In comparison, Greater Brisbane experienced job growth of 3.2%, labor force growth of 3.4%, and a 0.1 percentage point increase in unemployment. National employment predictions from May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia help illustrate prospective demand within Annerley. These five-year and ten-year outlooks were mapped against local job types to project future employment. Although national jobs are predicted to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rates differ greatly depending on the industry. Applying these industry projections to the local workforce mix suggests employment should rise by 7.2% over five years and 14.8% over ten years (this represents a basic weighting extrapolation for illustration and does not incorporate local population 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 — 33 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (11,891 at the 2021 Census → 13,103 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.
