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
Carindale has an estimated 17,429 residents, up from 16,535 at the 2021 Census — a change of 894 people, or 5.4%. Growth has averaged 0.6% a year over five years. 112 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Overseas migration accounts for 86.0% of that increase. That puts 1,637 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 evaluations of ABS demographics data for the surrounding region combined with new address validations performed by AreaSearch after the Census, the suburb of Carindale contains roughly 17,429 residents as of May 2026. This indicates a rise of 894 people (5.4%) relative to the 2021 Census, which registered 16,535 people. The adjustment is determined from a resident population count of 17,427 calculated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 ERP release alongside 112 newly confirmed addresses registered since the Census. With this headcount, the local density stands at 1,636 persons per square kilometer, outstripping the standard ratio observed across locations analyzed nationally by AreaSearch.
Expansion of the local community was largely underpinned by overseas migration, which made up approximately 86.0% of the overall population increases during recent timeframes. AreaSearch incorporates regional projections from Geoscience Australia and the ABS published in 2024 using 2022 as the base point. For SA2 areas excluded from that set, and for any points past 2032, projections from the Queensland State Government published in 2023 utilizing 2021 numbers are implemented. Because these state-level figures lack age-specific divisions, AreaSearch projects demographic shifts by applying age weightings derived from the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections, which use 2022 data. Projections for the coming years suggest a downward demographic trend, with the local headcount expected to contract by 346 persons by 2041 under this approach. Conversely, expansion is projected in certain cohorts, particularly those aged 75 to 84, who are forecast to grow by 652 people. Additional details are available in the age section.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
389 new dwellings have been approved in Carindale over the past five years, an average of 77 a year. That is 4.6 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 92 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 20% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 116, 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
AreaSearch's evaluation of building approvals from the ABS indicates that the suburb of Carindale averages about 77 approved residential dwellings annually, culminating in approximately 389 homes over the prior 5 financial years. Thus far during FY-26, approvals stand at 107. Over the prior 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), the area registered an average of 1.3 new residents for every finished home, indicating balanced demand and supply conditions; however, this metric has climbed to 9.9 people per dwelling over the prior 2 financial years, pointing to rising local demand and possible supply pressures.
New residential building approvals average $879,000 in value, illustrating a developers' focus on high-end, premium projects. Furthermore, commercial building approvals have reached $14.4 million during the current financial year, showing ongoing commercial backing. Recent building works consist of 20.0% standalone houses and 80.0% medium to high-density dwellings. Focusing on denser residential builds provides more accessible price brackets for first-time buyers, investors, and downsizers. This indicates a clear shift from the current residential mix of 89.0% houses, hinting at a drop in vacant land and reflecting changing preferences and affordability requirements. Registering approximately 1055 residents for every approval, the suburb of Carindale presents as a fully developed, established community. Faced with stable or contracting demographic projections, the suburb of Carindale might experience reduced pressure on housing, creating positive dynamics for purchasers.

9,858 residents of Carindale are employed, from a labour force of 10,016. Unemployment sits at 1.6%, with participation at 69.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.0% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 15,869, about 91% 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 suburb of Carindale holds a highly qualified labor force with strong representations in professional services, an unemployment rate of just 1.6%, and an estimated job growth of 5.0% over the prior year based on AreaSearch's regional data aggregation. In March 2026, working residents numbered 9,858, with unemployment sitting 2.8% below the Greater Brisbane rate of 4.3%, while local labor force participation closely matches the Greater Brisbane average of 70.4%. Census records show that a moderate 24.7% of local workers operated from home, though this may have been influenced by COVID-19 restriction measures.
The primary employment sectors for local citizens are health care & social assistance, professional & technical, and education & training. The area exhibits a notable concentration in the professional & technical sector, where employment shares are 1.3 times the regional standard. Conversely, construction is underrepresented, employing only 7.0% of local workers compared to 9.0% across Greater Brisbane. Comparing the counts of Census workers to residents indicates that this residential zone provides limited local employment options. According to SALM and ABS figures aggregated by AreaSearch, the year ending March 2026 saw local employment rise by 5.0% and the labor force expand by 4.9%, while unemployment figures remained essentially static. Over the same timeframe in Greater Brisbane, employment expanded by 3.2%, the labor force grew by 3.4%, and unemployment ticked up by 0.1 percentage points. National employment trends from Jobs and Skills Australia released in May-25 offer additional context on future demand in the suburb of Carindale. These five and ten-year projections have been mapped against the local profile to estimate growth. While national jobs are forecast to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, trends vary by sector. Projecting these trends onto the local industry makeup suggests employment in the suburb of Carindale will increase by 7.0% over five years and 14.2% over ten years, representing a basic weighting model that does not account for local population changes.

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 — 112 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (16,535 at the 2021 Census → 17,429 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.
