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
Buderim has an estimated 32,927 residents, up from 31,430 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,497 people, or 4.8%. Growth has averaged 0.8% a year over five years. 375 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. That puts 1,077 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 the analysis of demographic updates from the ABS for the wider region, along with address validations by AreaSearch following the Census, the suburb of Buderim has an estimated population of 32,927 in May 2026. This indicates a growth of 1,497 residents (4.8%) relative to the 2021 Census, which recorded 31,430 individuals. The calculation relies on a resident population of 32,880, calculated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 release of ERP figures plus 375 additional validated new addresses after the Census. This population level corresponds to a density of 1,076 persons per square kilometer, which aligns closely with typical benchmarks recorded in AreaSearch assessments.
The population expansion in the area was chiefly driven by interstate migration, representing approximately 56.99999999999999% of the overall population growth in recent times. Projections from ABS and Geoscience Australia published in 2024 (using 2022 as baseline data) are used by AreaSearch for each SA2 region. For any SA2 regions lacking this coverage, or for years past 2032, projections from the Queensland State Government released in 2023 (utilising 2021 data) are substituted. Because these state-level projections lack age-specific breakdowns, AreaSearch distributes growth across age cohorts using weightings from the ABS Greater Capital Region projections released in 2023, based on 2022 figures. Looking at future demographic trends, population growth is anticipated to be slightly below the national median for regional areas, with aggregated SA2 projections indicating the suburb of Buderim will add 3,389 residents by 2041, representing a total rise of 10.2% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
912 new dwellings have been approved in Buderim over the past five years, an average of 182 a year. That places the area in the 78th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 6 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 200 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 73% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 39, 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
AreaSearch evaluations of building approvals from the ABS indicate that Buderim averages about 182 new home approvals each year, with approximately 912 residential properties approved over the last 5 financial years. In FY-26 to date, 36 approvals have been logged. In the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), the ratio of new residents to completed dwellings was 1.5 people per year, suggesting that demand and supply are well-balanced for stable market conditions, while recent data over the last 2 financial years indicates this has dropped to 0.8 people per dwelling, showing more balanced supply conditions.
Newly built properties have an average construction cost of $708,000, which suggests that building activity is focused on high-end, premium housing. Additionally, commercial development shows solid momentum with $35.6 million in commercial approvals registered so far this financial year. Buderim has experienced slightly higher development activity compared to the Rest of Qld, running 18.0% above the regional average per capita over the 5 year period, which maintains supply options for buyers while supporting demand for existing homes. New residential approvals consist of 73.0% detached houses and 27.0% semi-detached or multi-unit dwellings, reinforcing the suburban character with family-oriented layouts. Buderim exhibits low density characteristics, averaging around 179 people per dwelling approval. Moving forward, Buderim is projected to add 3,342 inhabitants by 2041, according to the most recent quarterly estimates from AreaSearch. Considering current building trends, the supply of new housing is positioned to comfortably satisfy demand, providing favorable purchasing conditions and potentially enabling growth to outpace current forecasts.

16,688 residents of Buderim are employed, from a labour force of 17,079. Unemployment sits at 2.3%, with participation at 62.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.1% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 28,513, about 87% 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
Budering has a highly educated labor force with a strong footprint in essential services and an unemployment rate of only 2.3%, according to aggregated statistical data compiled by AreaSearch. In March 2026, employed residents numbered 16,688, while the local unemployment rate was 1.6% lower than the Regional Qld level of 3.9%, and participation rates were similar to the 64.3% reported for Regional Qld. Census records indicate that a moderate 19.2% of workers operated from home, though this figure may have been influenced by COVID-19 restrictions. Resident employment is heavily weighted toward health care & social assistance, education & training, and construction.
The community shows a strong concentration in health care & social assistance, employing residents at 1.3 times the regional average rate. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for only 0.8% of the workforce, which is lower than the 4.5% rate in Regional Qld. Comparing the resident workforce to the local working population suggests that this largely residential area offers limited local employment opportunities. An analysis of SALM and ABS statistics for the year ending March 2026 indicates that the local labor force contracted by 2.7% and total employment fell by 3.2%, leading to a 0.4 percentage point rise in unemployment. In contrast, Regional Qld experienced a 0.1% rise in employment, a 0.3% expansion of the labor force, and a 0.1 percentage point increase in unemployment. National forecasts released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 provide a baseline for future worker demand in Buderim. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce structure to model future growth. Nationally, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with performance varying by sector. Mapping these trends to the local industry mix suggests employment among Buderim residents could grow by 7.1% over five years and 14.6% over ten years, representing a simple weighting model that does not adjust for local population 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 — 375 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (31,430 at the 2021 Census → 32,927 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.
