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.

Bardon has an estimated 11,053 residents, up from 10,153 at the 2021 Census — a change of 900 people, or 8.9%. Growth has averaged 1.2% a year over five years. Overseas migration accounts for 80.0% of that increase. That puts 2,202 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
As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Bardon has an estimated population of approximately 11,053, calculated by AreaSearch through examining regional ABS population releases and post-Census validated addresses. Compared to the 2021 Census tally of 10,153 people, this represents an addition of 900 people (8.9%). The figure builds upon an estimated resident population of 11,050 determined after reviewing the June 2025 ABS ERP figures, alongside 25 validated new addresses identified following the Census. The suburb of Bardon records a population density of 2,201 persons per square kilometer, exceeding the broader average across locations evaluated nationally by AreaSearch.
With an 8.9% post-census expansion, the suburb of Bardon tracks within 0.6 percentage points of the 9.5% national benchmark, highlighting solid growth characteristics. Recent population gains were predominantly underpinned by overseas migration, which generated roughly 80.0% of overall growth. For individual SA2 locations, AreaSearch incorporates ABS/Geoscience Australia projections published in 2024 using 2022 as their baseline. In instances where SA2 areas are excluded or for dates beyond 2032, Queensland State Government SA2 projections issued in 2023 from 2021 data are utilized. Because these state forecasts omit age breakdowns, AreaSearch assigns proportional cohort weightings from the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023 using 2022 data). Looking ahead, demographic patterns indicate the suburb of Bardon will expand at a rate slightly below the national area median, gaining 870 persons by 2041 according to combined SA2 projections, representing an overall increase of 7.8% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
101 new dwellings have been approved in Bardon over the past five years, an average of 20 a year. That is 1.7 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 11, 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
Analysis of statistical area building approvals by AreaSearch indicates that Bardon averages approximately 20 residential approvals annually, totaling roughly 101 homes approved across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 11 recorded to date in FY-25. With an average influx of 6.9 new residents annually for every dwelling completed over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), structural demand materially exceeds new building volume, generally driving price growth and heightened buyer interest, while average new build values sit at $1,768,000, illustrating developer focus on high-end, premium housing.
Additionally, commercial development remains subdued, with only $120,000 in commercial approvals lodged during the current financial year. Residential development in Bardon is notably constrained compared to Greater Brisbane, sitting 61.0% below the per-capita regional benchmark. This limited delivery of new stock generally bolsters buyer demand and pricing for established properties. Activity is similarly subdued against nationwide levels, underscoring the established fabric of the area and possible planning restrictions. Furthermore, recent approvals have been exclusively for separate houses, maintaining local suburban character and appealing to buyers seeking detached space. This focus on standalone dwellings exceeds existing dwelling distributions (81.0% at Census), reflecting sustained interest in family-sized properties despite broader densification trends, with roughly 735 people per approval confirming a mature locality. Based on the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate, Bardon is projected to gain 867 residents by 2041. If residential construction continues at its current pace, additions to the housing stock may not keep up with incoming population, potentially intensifying competition across the market and supporting property values.

6,640 residents of Bardon are employed, from a labour force of 6,785. Unemployment sits at 2.1%, with participation at 76.8%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.5% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 8,854, about 80% 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
Bardon features a highly qualified resident labour force with notable concentrations in professional roles, a low unemployment rate of 2.1%, and annual employment growth estimated at 2.1% through AreaSearch statistical area modeling. By March 2026, employed residents reached 6,640, with local unemployment sitting 2.2% below the Greater Brisbane benchmark of 4.3%, while the labour force participation rate reached an elevated 76.8% compared to 70.1% across Greater Brisbane. In addition, 36.7% of respondents reported working remotely at the Census, although prevailing Covid-19 restrictions at the time should be factored in. The resident workforce is predominantly engaged across professional & technical, health care & social assistance, and education & training sectors.
Representation is particularly prominent in professional & technical fields, where the local concentration is 2.0 times that of the wider region. Conversely, manufacturing accounts for a minor 2.6% share of local employment, well below the 6.4% regional level. Comparing the resident workforce to Census working population counts suggests that local job opportunities within the immediate residential boundary remain limited. AreaSearch analysis of ABS and SALM statistical data shows that across the 12 months leading to March 2026, resident employment expanded by 2.1% alongside a 2.3% rise in the labour pool, resulting in a 0.2 percentage points lift in the unemployment rate. Over the identical timeframe, Greater Brisbane recorded employment growth of 3.2%, labour force expansion of 3.4%, and a 0.1 percentage points uptick in unemployment. Broader perspective is provided by Jobs and Skills Australia national employment projections from Mar-26, mapped to local industry concentrations over five and ten-year horizons. Across Australia, total employment is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with sector-specific trends varying. Applying these sector trajectories to Bardon suggests local employment could expand by 7.5% over five years and 15.1% over ten years (noting this is an illustrative weighting model excluding local population adjustments).

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 — 25 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (10,153 at the 2021 Census → 11,053 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.
