Detail

As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Cedar Grove has an estimated population of around 2,303, according to AreaSearch's evaluation of broader ABS population releases and post-Census validated addresses. Compared to the 2021 Census tally of 1,992 people, this represents an addition of 311 people (15.6%). This growth is derived from an estimated resident population of 2,209 determined by AreaSearch following the ABS June 2025 ERP release, along with 2 validated new addresses recorded after the Census. The suburb of Cedar Grove maintains a population density of 129 persons per square kilometer, offering ample room per resident and capacity for future expansion.

With a 15.6% expansion rate since the 2021 census, the suburb outpaced the nationwide figure of 9.5% as well as state-level performance, establishing it among regional growth frontrunners. Inbound interstate migration served as the primary growth engine, generating approximately 75.0% of recent population additions, while overseas migration and natural increase also provided positive contributions. For individual SA2 locations, AreaSearch incorporates ABS/Geoscience Australia projections published in 2024 using 2022 as their starting baseline. Where this series is unavailable or extends beyond 2032, Queensland State Government SA2 figures released in 2023 based on 2021 data are used instead. Because the state dataset omits age breakdowns, AreaSearch applies proportional distribution weights matching the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023, utilizing 2022 data) across each demographic cohort. Future demographic models place the suburb of Cedar Grove within the upper quartile of analyzed statistical territories, projecting an increase of 655 persons to 2041 under aggregated SA2 data, corresponding to an overall rise of 24.4% over the 16 years.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Cedar Grove

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

30 new dwellings have been approved in Cedar Grove over the past five years, an average of 6 a year. That places the area in the 65th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 3 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 7, broadly in line with 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 ABS building approvals across statistical units indicates that Cedar Grove has averaged approximately 6 residential approvals per annum, totaling an estimated 30 homes approved across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 7 approved to date in FY-25. Over this five-year span (between FY-21 and FY-25), inbound migration averaged 4.5 people per year for every home built, creating a scenario where demand outstrips new construction, typically elevating buyer competition and asset values. Expected construction costs for new dwellings average $425,000. In addition, $20,000 worth of commercial approvals was recorded in the current financial year, highlighting a predominantly residential development landscape.

Relative to Greater Brisbane, per capita building activity in Cedar Grove is 86.0% below regional levels. While construction has gained momentum lately, this constrained pipeline of new stock generally bolsters buyer demand and pricing for established homes. Below-average building rates on a national comparison also reflect the established profile of the community alongside prospective planning limitations. Recent residential development has centered entirely on standalone houses, safeguarding low-density neighborhood character and appealing to buyers pursuing space. The current ratio stands at approximately 156 people per dwelling approval, underscoring an expanding market. Based on the most recent quarterly estimate from AreaSearch, Cedar Grove is projected to add 561 residents through to 2041. Should current construction rates persist, the delivery of new residential stock could lag behind demographic expansion, creating heightened buyer competition and underpinning stronger property value appreciation.

Jobs & IndustryEmployment Trends in Cedar Grove

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

1,186 residents of Cedar Grove are employed, from a labour force of 1,220. Unemployment sits at 2.8%, with participation at 68.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.1% 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 1,906, 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.

The construction sector exhibits particular strength, employing workers at 2.0 times the broader metropolitan frequency. Conversely, professional & technical roles account for only 4.1% of the local working population, below the 8.9% observed across Greater Brisbane. A comparison between Census working figures and the resident population highlights a comparatively modest level of internal employment generation within the locality. AreaSearch analysis of ABS and SALM data across wider statistical zones indicates that during the 12 months to March 2026, the local workforce contracted by 4.8% alongside a 5.2% fall in employed persons, lifting unemployment by 0.4 percentage points. By comparison, Greater Brisbane generated employment gains of 3.2% and labor supply growth of 3.4%, alongside a 0.1 percentage point rise in unemployment.

Applying these occupational trends to Cedar Grove's industrial baseline projects localized workforce expansion of 6.1% over five years and 12.7% over ten years (note that this reflects an illustrative weighted extrapolation rather than specific regional demographic 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 — 2 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (1,992 at the 2021 Census → 2,303 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 (SAL30569). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.

Common questions about this page

How do Cedar Grove suburb boundaries differ from Statistical Areas?
This page uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries (suburb-style geography). SAL represents commonly-known suburb names used in addresses, while Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census/statistical reporting. Even when sharing the same name, SAL and SA2 boundaries often cover different geographic areas with different populations.
Where does the data on this Cedar Grove page come from?
AreaSearch compiles this page from official and industry sources — including ABS, Geoscience Australia, Valuer General, Provider directories, DEWR, JSA, State Transport Departments and ACARA — then aggregates them to the boundary shown and calculates the rankings, growth rates and benchmarks itself. Property sales come from the state valuation authority, rents from state rental bond lodgements, development applications from council and state planning portals, school data from ACARA, and public transport from state transport departments.
Is the Cedar Grove data on this page just from the 2021 Census?
No. Most of this page is maintained well beyond the Census. Sourced entirely from current releases: development & approvals (Aug 2026), property sales & rents (Aug 2026), infrastructure projects (Aug 2026) and services & amenities (Jul 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to Aug 2026), age profile (to Aug 2026), employment (to Mar 2026), income (to FY 2023), education (to Aug 2026), transport (to Jul 2026) and health (to 2024). Population and age cohorts in particular are re-based to the latest ABS Estimated Resident Population rather than left at 2021 counts. Only housing, households and cultural diversity remain wholly Census-based, because no more current small-area dataset exists for those measures.
