Sales Detail
Edens Landing has an estimated 5,882 residents, up from 5,094 at the 2021 Census — a change of 788 people, or 15.5%. Growth has averaged 2.2% a year over five years, faster than 85% of areas nationally. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 54.0% of that increase. That puts 2,289 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 latest calculations from AreaSearch utilising ABS updates and freshly validated addresses, the suburb of Edens Landing is home to approximately 5,882 residents as of May 2026. This represents an increase of 788 people (15.5%) compared to the 2021 Census population of 5,094 people. The estimate builds upon the ABS June 2025 estimated resident population of 5,831, combined with 4 validated new addresses recorded since the Census. This population level corresponds to a density of 2,288 persons per square kilometer, which exceeds the national average monitored by AreaSearch.
The suburb of Edens Landing's 15.5% expansion rate since the 2021 census outpaced the national average (9.3%) and the state benchmark, establishing it as a regional growth leader. This growth was largely propelled by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 54.0% of the total population increases, with natural growth and overseas migration also contributing positively. Projections utilize ABS and Geoscience Australia data from 2024 with a 2022 baseline, supplemented by 2023 Queensland Government data based on 2021 records for remaining SA2 districts and periods after 2032. Because state projections lack detailed age cohorts, AreaSearch distributes growth using proportional age weightings derived from the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region forecasts. Based on these combined SA2 projections, a substantial population rise is anticipated, placing the suburb of Edens Landing in the top quartile of assessed areas, with a projected increase of 1,480 persons by 2041, representing a total rise of 24.3% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
49 new dwellings have been approved in Edens Landing over the past five years, an average of 9 a year. That is 1.8 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 10, 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
Based on building approvals from the ABS, the suburb of Edens Landing recorded an average of roughly 9 new home approvals annually, totaling 49 residential approvals over the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, alongside 10 approvals during the current FY-26. With an average of 12.3 new residents added per year for each home constructed between FY-21 and FY-25, demand continues to outstrip housing supply, creating stronger buyer competition and upward pressure on prices. Newly approved homes carry an average construction value of $392,000, which is slightly higher than the regional benchmark and points to a focus on quality builds.
Additionally, commercial approvals reached $176,000 this financial year, highlighting the predominantly residential character of the area. All recent residential construction has consisted of detached houses, maintaining the suburban profile of the area and attracting buyers seeking larger spaces. This construction trend favors detached properties even more than the existing stock (82.0% at the Census), highlighting sustained demand for single-family residences despite density trends. With a ratio of 1159 people per approval, the suburb of Edens Landing presents as an established, mature community. Based on the most recent quarterly estimate from AreaSearch, population forecasts indicate that the suburb of Edens Landing will add 1,429 residents by 2041. If current building rates do not accelerate, housing supply may fail to keep pace with this population expansion, which is likely to heighten competition among buyers and support ongoing price increases.

Developed and operated by Living Gems under its own Osprey Waters brand.
2,967 residents of Edens Landing are employed, from a labour force of 3,118. Unemployment sits at 4.8%, with participation at 68.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.0% 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 4,500, about 77% 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 local workforce shows a balanced mix of professional and trade occupations, with construction workers particularly well represented, and an unemployment rate of 4.8%. As of March 2026, employed residents numbered 2,967, while the local unemployment rate sat 0.5% higher than the Greater Brisbane level of 4.3%. The participation rate is close to the Greater Brisbane average of 70.4%. Census figures indicate that a modest 10.7% of the workforce operated from home, though this figure may have been influenced by pandemic lockdowns. The primary employment sectors for local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction.
The concentration of construction workers is particularly high, standing at 1.4 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical services are underrepresented, accounting for only 3.8% of employment compared to 8.9% across the region. The comparison between the local working population and resident numbers suggests that this highly residential area offers limited job opportunities within its own boundaries. Analyses conducted by AreaSearch using data from the SALM and ABS, which were aggregated from larger statistical regions, show that over the twelve month period ending in March 2026 the total labour force fell by 3.7% while employment dropped by 4.6%, leading to a 0.9 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. In Greater Brisbane the picture was different, with employment climbing by 3.2%, the labour force expanding by 3.4%, and unemployment growing by only 0.1 percentage points. For context on future job demand in Edens Landing, one may refer to the national employment forecasts published by Jobs and Skills Australia for May-25. These forecasts span five and ten year horizons and have been overlaid on the local employment structure to gauge likely expansion trends. Nationally, employment is projected to grow by 6.6% in five years and by 13.7% in ten years, though sectoral growth varies considerably. When these sectoral rates are applied to Edens Landing’s current employment composition, the area is expected to see employment rise by 6.0% over five years and by 12.7% over ten years, though this is a basic weighted extrapolation intended only for illustration and does not incorporate local population forecasts.
Frequently Asked Questions - Employment
Median household income in Edens Landing is $1,648 a week (about $86,000 a year), with median personal income at $762 a week.

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 — 4 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (5,094 at the 2021 Census → 5,882 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.
