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
Glen Eden has an estimated 3,152 residents, up from 2,918 at the 2021 Census — a change of 234 people, or 8.0%. Growth has averaged 1.1% a year over five years. Natural increase accounts for 51.0% of that increase. That puts 454 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
Based on analysis of ABS population updates for the broader area, and new addresses validated by AreaSearch since the Census Glen Eden's population is estimated at around 3,152 as of May 2026. This reflects an increase of 234 people (8.0%) since the 2021 Census, which reported a population of 2,918 people. The change is inferred from the resident population of 3,149, estimated by AreaSearch following examination of the latest ERP data release by the ABS (June 2025) and an additional 64 validated new addresses since the Census date. This level of population equates to a density ratio of 454 persons per square kilometer, providing significant space per person and potential room for further development.
Glen Eden's 8.0% growth since the 2021 census exceeded the SA4 region (7.4%), marking it as a growth leader in the region. Population growth for the area was primarily driven by natural growth that contributed approximately 51.0% of overall population gains during recent periods, although all drivers including overseas migration and interstate migration were positive factors. AreaSearch is adopting ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, as released in 2024 with 2022 as the base year. For any SA2 areas not covered by this data, and for years post-2032, Queensland State Government's SA2 area projections, released in 2023 and based on 2021 data, are adopted. It should be noted that these state projections do not provide age category splits; hence where utilised, AreaSearch is applying proportional growth weightings in line with the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (released in 2023, based on 2022 data) for each age cohort. Looking at population projections moving forward, an above median population growth of national regional areas is projected, with the area expected to grow by 496 persons to 2041 based on aggregated SA2-level projections, reflecting reflecting an increase of 15.6% in total over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
24 new dwellings have been approved in Glen Eden over the past five years, an average of 4 a year. That is 1.6 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 24, 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
Based on AreaSearch analysis of ABS building approval numbers, allocated from statistical area data, Glen Eden has averaged around 4 new dwelling approvals annually, totalling an estimated 24 homes over the past 5 financial years. So far in FY-26, 22 approvals have been recorded. At an average of 7 new residents per year for every home built over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), supply is substantially lagging demand, which generally means heightened buyer competition, leading to pricing pressures, while new dwellings are developed at an average value of $402,000.
Relative to Rest of Qld, Glen Eden shows substantially reduced construction (51.0% below regional average per person). This scarcity of new properties typically strengthens demand and prices for existing properties. This activity is also below average nationally, reflecting the area's maturity and pointing to possible planning constraints. Meanwhile, recent building activity consists entirely of detached houses, maintaining the area's traditional low density character with a focus on family homes appealing to those seeking space. The estimated count of 783 people in the area per dwelling approval reflects its quiet, low activity development environment. Future projections show Glen Eden adding 493 residents by 2041 (from the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate). If current development rates continue, housing supply may not keep pace with population growth, potentially increasing competition among buyers and supporting stronger price growth.

Brookview Estate
Brookview Estate is a resort style master planned residential community in Glen Eden, Gladstone. Originally developed by Latitude Development Group as a gated community title estate, the project was planned for around 250 freehold home sites with staged land releases around a private residents club featuring pools, gym, function room, barbecue areas, playgrounds, landscaped parklands, walkways and cycleways. The original developer entered external administration and the balance of the estate land and recreation centre were sold to new owners from 2017 onward, but the subdivision, roads and lifestyle facilities are now in place and the area has matured into an established suburban neighbourhood with most lots built out and only infill housing occurring on remaining vacant sites.
Clinton Industrial Estate
Economic Development Queensland is constructing the Byelle Precinct at Clinton Industrial Estate, delivering 27 fully serviced medium-impact industrial lots ranging from about 4,000 sqm to 10,000 sqm. Civil works including roads, kerbing, services, lighting and landscaping are progressing, with land release expected in late 2026. The precinct is intended to support manufacturing, freight, logistics and advanced industry close to the Port of Gladstone.
West Gladstone Social Homes
Construction of 13 new social homes in West Gladstone designed for single people, couples, young people, people with disability, and seniors. Six homes are being built to Platinum and Gold level accessibility standards as per Social Housing Design Guidelines.

Part of the Queensland Government's Homes for Queenslanders plan to deliver one million more homes, including 53,500 social homes.
Gladstone Project
Powerlink Queensland's Gladstone Project is a critical multi-stage transmission network reinforcement program to ensure electricity reliability and security as the Gladstone Power Station prepares for anticipated closure. The project supports industrial decarbonisation and the integration of renewables in the Central Queensland area. Stage 1 involves the Calvale to Calliope River 275kV transmission line and substation expansions. Stage 2 includes the Bouldercombe to Larcom Creek line and the proposed new Gladstone West Substation. The Final Assessment Report was submitted in June 2025, with Stage 1 main construction works expected to commence in mid-2026 pending formal approvals.
Wiggins Island Coal Export Terminal (WICET)
Privately funded coal export terminal at Golding Point within the Port of Gladstone. Stage 1 delivers 27 Mtpa capacity via rail receival, a 5.6 km covered overland conveyor to stockyards, and an offshore wharf ~2 km from shore with a single berth and shiploader. Terminal aligns with Queensland Ports Strategy and can expand on the existing site when demand supports it. Owned by Wiggins Island Coal Export Terminal Pty Ltd (industry consortium).
Riverstone Rise
Gladstone first truly masterplanned community spanning 496 hectares along the Boyne River. The development includes 2,900 homes for over 7,500 residents, educational facilities including a primary school and childcare centre, retail and commercial town centre precinct, medical centre, and community facilities. It features 26 percent dedicated open space with 182 hectares of reserves, parks, and walking trails integrated with 4.2 kilometres of Boyne River frontage. Construction is active with the Corimba and Lilyvale Stage 4A releases progressing through 2026.
Boyne Tannum Aquatic Centre

Supported by a $15M federal grant, the centre features a heated 50m Olympic-standard pool with retractable shade, DDA-compliant amenities, a kiosk, and a locally themed children's play area. Located at Arthur Street following a 2024 site relocation, construction commenced in May 2026 with an anticipated completion in mid-2027.
1,738 residents of Glen Eden are employed, from a labour force of 1,801. Unemployment sits at 3.5%, with participation at 74.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.2% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,411, about 76% 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
Glen Eden possesses a balanced workforce spanning white and blue collar employment, with manufacturing and industrial sectors strongly represented, and an unemployment rate of only 3.5%, based on AreaSearch aggregation of statistical area data. As of March 2026, 1,738 residents are in work while the unemployment rate is 0.4% below Regional Qld's rate of 3.9%, and workforce participation is well beyond standard (74.7% compared to Regional Qld's 64.3%). Based on Census responses, a low 3.2% of residents were found to work from home, though Covid-19 lockdown impacts should be considered.
Employment among residents is concentrated in manufacturing, health care & social assistance, and retail trade. The area has particular employment specialization in manufacturing, with an employment share of 3.0 times the regional level. On the other hand, health care & social assistance is under-represented, with only 11.4% of Glen Eden's workforce compared to 16.1% in Regional Qld. The predominantly residential area appears to offer limited employment opportunities locally, as indicated by the count of Census working population vs resident population. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS data, aggregated from broader statistical areas, the 12-month period saw labour force decreasing by 4.9% alongside a 4.0% employment decline, causing the unemployment rate to fall by 0.9 percentage points. This compares to Regional Qld, where employment grew by 0.1%, labour force expanded by 0.3%, and unemployment rose 0.1 percentage points. Jobs and Skills Australia's national employment forecasts from May-25 can offer further insight into potential future demand within Glen Eden. These projections, covering five and ten-year periods, have been mapped against the local employment profile to estimate growth patterns. While national employment is forecast to expand by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates differ significantly between industry sectors. Applying these industry-specific projections to Glen Eden's employment mix suggests local employment should increase by 5.2% over five years and 11.7% over ten years (please note this is a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not take into account localised population 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 — 64 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (2,918 at the 2021 Census → 3,152 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 (SAL31145). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
