DemographicsPopulation Growth in Currimundi

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

Currimundi has an estimated 6,826 residents, up from 6,570 at the 2021 Census — a change of 256 people, or 3.9%. That puts 1,886 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

As of Aug 2026, the suburb of Currimundi has an estimated population of approximately 6,826, derived from AreaSearch's evaluation of wider ABS updates alongside freshly confirmed addresses following the Census. Compared to the 6,570 residents recorded in the 2021 Census, this represents an addition of 256 people (3.9%). Such growth is calculated from an estimated resident count of 6,822 based on the ABS June 2025 ERP release, coupled with 22 validated new addresses identified since the Census. Consequently, population density stands at 1,885 persons per square kilometer, exceeding the broader nationwide benchmarks tracked by AreaSearch.

Inward migration from overseas served as virtually the sole catalyst for population gains across the suburb over recent times. Projections utilised by AreaSearch incorporate 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia datasets with a 2022 baseline for local SA2 regions. For post-2032 timeframes or areas outside this coverage, 2023 Queensland State Government SA2 modeling based on 2021 numbers is referenced. Because these state figures omit specific age breakdowns, AreaSearch applies proportional distributions aligned with the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections (using 2022 data). For the suburb of Currimundi, long-term projections indicate lower-quartile growth relative to broader national regions, with combined SA2 data projecting a gain of 145 persons to 2041, representing a cumulative 2.1% expansion over the 16 years.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Currimundi

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

55 new dwellings have been approved in Currimundi over the past five years, an average of 11 a year. That is 2.3 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 23, 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

ABS residential approval figures aggregated by AreaSearch indicate an annual approval rate of roughly 11 dwellings in Currimundi. Over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), an estimated 55 homes secured permits, with 23 recorded during FY-25 to date. Between FY-21 and FY-25, the inflow of residents averaged 1.1 people per year for every dwelling constructed, signaling well-matched supply and demand alongside stable property conditions. Anticipated construction costs for new dwellings average $694,000, tracking moderately higher than regional figures and underscoring a commitment to superior build standards. Meanwhile, commercial building approvals reached $10.4 million during the ongoing financial year, pointing to steady non-residential activity.

Currimundi records an 83.0% lower rate of per-person building activity when compared to Rest of Qld. While this lower volume of new builds—which also tracks below the national standard due to area maturity and potential planning constraints—can bolster demand and values for established residences, recent building momentum has accelerated. Approvals indicate a low-density environment of approximately 289 people per dwelling approval, comprising 69.0% detached dwellings alongside 31.0% attached dwellings, providing an expanding selection of housing options ranging from larger family residences to more compact properties. According to the latest quarterly estimates from AreaSearch, Currimundi is projected to expand by 141 residents through to 2041. Present development trends suggest that residential building pipelines are positioned to comfortably absorb this anticipated demand, maintaining favourable purchasing dynamics and possibly supporting residential intake beyond current 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 — 22 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (6,570 at the 2021 Census → 6,826 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 (SAL30773). 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 Currimundi 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 Currimundi 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 Currimundi 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 (Oct 2026), infrastructure projects (Sep 2026) and services & amenities (Sep 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 Sep 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.
