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.

Burpengary East has an estimated 13,741 residents, up from 9,654 at the 2021 Census — a change of 4,087 people, or 42.3%. Growth has averaged 8.3% a year over five years, faster than 97% of areas nationally. 1,440 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 78.0% of that increase. That puts 458 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
Analysis of ABS population figures for the surrounding region, combined with address records validated by AreaSearch since the Census, indicates the population of the suburb of Burpengary East is approximately 13,741 as of May 2026. This represents an addition of 4,087 individuals (42.3%) relative to the 2021 Census, which counted 9,654 residents. This calculation is based on a resident population estimate of 13,398, derived by AreaSearch from the ABS demographic release of June 2025 and 1,440 validated new addresses added since the Census. Such population numbers translate to a density of 458 persons per square kilometer, indicating low density housing and space for potential future expansion.
The growth rate of 42.3% since the 2021 census is higher than the national benchmark of 9.3% and state trends, placing the locality among the fastest growing areas in the region. The primary driver of this demographic expansion was interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 78.0% of the overall population gains, with overseas migration and natural increase also making positive contributions. AreaSearch incorporates population projections from Geoscience Australia and the ABS for each SA2 district, published in 2024 using 2022 as the base year. For locations lacking this coverage, and for the years beyond 2032, projection models from the Queensland Government published in 2023 utilizing 2021 data are used. Because the state-level models omit age group breakdowns, AreaSearch scales the cohorts proportionally to align with the ABS Greater Capital Region projections published in 2023 using 2022 data. Future demographic forecasts suggest strong population gains, ranking in the top 10 percent of statistical areas nationwide. The population of the suburb of Burpengary East is projected to rise by 9,176 persons by 2041 according to collective SA2 projections, representing an expansion of 64.3% over the 16 years.

7,002 residents of Burpengary East are employed, from a labour force of 7,204. Unemployment sits at 2.8%, with participation at 65.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% 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 11,389, about 83% 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 workforce of the suburb of Burpengary East is divided between blue-collar and white-collar roles, with a high concentration of workers in building trades. The local unemployment rate stands at 2.8%, while employment grew by 6.4% over the past year based on regional data compiled by AreaSearch. In March 2026, 7,002 residents were employed. The local unemployment rate is 1.5% below the Greater Brisbane benchmark of 4.3%, while the labor participation rate is lower than the metropolitan average, registering at 65.6% compared to 70.4% in Greater Brisbane. Census data indicates that 15.1% of working residents performed their jobs from home, though this figure was likely influenced by pandemic restrictions.
The major employment sectors for local workers are health care & social assistance, construction, and retail trade. The suburb of Burpengary East displays a high concentration in building and construction, with employment rates in this sector reaching 1.6 times the regional norm. Conversely, professional & technical services have a smaller footprint, employing 4.3% of the workforce compared to 8.9% across the region. Comparison of the Census working population against the resident population suggests that local employment opportunities are limited, reflecting the area's suburban character. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics compiled from regional datasets, during the 12 months ending March 2026, local employment grew by 6.4% while the labor force expanded by 6.8%, leading to a 0.4 percentage point rise in unemployment. In comparison, Greater Brisbane saw employment grow by 3.2%, the labor force expand by 3.4%, and unemployment rise by 0.1 percentage points. National employment projections released in May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia provide further context on local labor demand. These five and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local workforce distribution to project employment trends. While national employment is expected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates vary by industry. Applying these industry projections to the local workforce mix suggests that employment for residents of the suburb of Burpengary East will grow by 6.3% over five years and 13.1% over ten years, representing a simple weighted model that does not account for specific local population growth 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 — 1,440 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (9,654 at the 2021 Census → 13,741 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.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (SAL30452). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
