Sales Detail
Boonah (Qld) has an estimated 2,729 residents, up from 2,557 at the 2021 Census — a change of 172 people, or 6.7%. Growth has averaged 0.9% a year over five years. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 65.0% of that increase. That puts 246 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 evaluations integrating wider regional ABS population figures and post-Census validated addresses, the suburb of Boonah (Qld) holds an estimated population of approximately 2,729 as of Aug 2026. This marks an expansion of 172 people (6.7%) compared to the 2,557 people counted in the 2021 Census. Such growth is deduced from an estimated resident count of 2,693 stemming from ABS ERP data published in June 2025 alongside 77 validated new addresses identified following the Census. With a density of 245 persons per square kilometer, the locality offers generous personal space and capacity for prospective development.
The 6.7% post-Census gain tracks within 2.8 percentage points of the 9.5% nationwide benchmark, highlighting solid growth characteristics. The primary driver of this demographic increase was interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 65.0% of overall additions in recent times, though natural growth and overseas arrivals also contributed positively. Projections from ABS/Geoscience Australia released in 2024 with a 2022 baseline are applied by AreaSearch across SA2 locations. When SA2 figures are absent or extend past 2032, 2023-released Queensland State Government SA2 projections based on 2021 numbers are used instead. Because state projections lack age bracket details, AreaSearch applies cohort weightings derived from 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region data (2022 baseline). Looking ahead, the suburb of Boonah (Qld) is forecast to achieve population growth above the national statistical area median, gaining 595 persons by 2041 under aggregated SA2 modeling, which represents a total rise of 20.5% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
70 new dwellings have been approved in Boonah (Qld) over the past five years, an average of 14 a year. That places the area in the 53rd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 5 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 20 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 95% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 34, running ahead of 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
An evaluation by AreaSearch of ABS building permit statistics at the statistical area level reveals that Boonah averages roughly 14 residential building approvals annually, accumulating to around 70 homes across the past 5 financial years. During FY-25 to date, 34 approvals have been tallied. With approximately 1.2 people moving in annually per home constructed across the preceding 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), demand and construction volumes appear balanced, encouraging steady conditions, while newly built residences reflect an average expected construction cost of $471,000. In addition, $3.3 million in commercial permits has been logged during the current financial year, underscoring the dominant residential focus of the locality.
Per capita construction activity in Boonah runs at roughly three-quarters of the Greater Brisbane benchmark, placing it in the 86th percentile across the country, with building rates quickening over recent times. Residential building approvals consist of 95.0% standalone houses and 5.0% medium and high-density housing, reinforcing the traditional low-density landscape oriented toward family homes for residents prioritizing space. Recording roughly 94 people per dwelling approval, the locality displays typical growth-corridor traits. Longer-term forecasts project that Boonah will expand by 559 residents by 2041 relative to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly figure. If residential construction remains at current rates, additions to the housing stock could fail to keep pace with population growth, potentially heightening competition among purchasers and supporting upward price movement.

1,206 residents of Boonah (Qld) are employed, from a labour force of 1,240. Unemployment sits at 2.7%, with participation at 52.4%. 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. The working-day population is estimated at 2,156, 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
Boonah features a diverse labour force balancing blue-collar and white-collar roles across multiple sectors, characterised by a jobless rate of merely 2.7% and an estimated 10.7% annual rise in workforce numbers per AreaSearch statistical aggregations. By March 2026, employed residents numbered 1,206, with local unemployment sitting 1.6% beneath the 4.3% reported for Greater Brisbane, although labour force participation of 52.4% sits well under the wider capital's 70.1%. Census records show only 10.1% of workers operating from home, an outcome subject to the timing of Covid-19 restrictions. The primary employment fields among local workers are agriculture, forestry & fishing, health care & social assistance, alongside retail trade.
Specialisation is exceptionally pronounced in agriculture, forestry & fishing, where local participation is 13.8 times the broader regional benchmark. In contrast, health care & social assistance accounts for 12.2% of workers, trailing the regional share of 16.1%. Comparing resident counts with Census workplace tallies suggests that employment positions within the immediate locality are relatively scarce. AreaSearch evaluations of ABS and SALM statistical area figures show that over the twelve months leading to March 2026, total employment grew by 10.7% while the labour pool expanded by 9.9%, driving a 0.7 percentage point decline in local unemployment. Over the same span across Greater Brisbane, employment rose by 3.2%, the labour force grew by 3.4%, and unemployment ticked up by 0.1 percentage points. Future workplace demand may also be gauged from Jobs and Skills Australia national forecasts published in Mar-26. Projected against local industry distributions over five- and ten-year intervals, national employment is anticipated to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though industry trajectories vary considerably. Weighting these sectoral projections against Boonah's industry distribution indicates potential local job growth of 5.8% over five years and 12.3% over ten years (representing an illustrative mathematical extrapolation that excludes local demographic projections).

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 — 77 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,557 at the 2021 Census → 2,729 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 (SAL30321). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
