DemographicsPopulation Growth in Hemmant

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

Hemmant has an estimated 3,657 residents, up from 2,886 at the 2021 Census — a change of 771 people, or 26.7%. Growth has averaged 5.1% a year over five years, faster than 94% of areas nationally. 121 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Overseas migration accounts for 58.0% of that increase. That puts 527 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 estimates derived from ABS demographic releases and subsequent address validations conducted by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Hemmant has a population of approximately 3,657 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 771 people (26.7%) from the 2,886 individuals recorded in the 2021 Census. The calculation stems from a resident population of 3,635 estimated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 ERP release, combined with an additional 121 validated new addresses established post-Census. With this population level, the density stands at 526 persons per square kilometer, indicating low density and potential for future expansion.

The suburb of Hemmant's 26.7% growth rate since the 2021 Census outpaced both the SA3 area (7.1%) and the wider SA4 region, establishing it as a regional growth leader. The primary driver of this demographic expansion was overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 57.99999999999999% of total population increases during recent periods, though natural increase and interstate migration also made positive contributions. Projections for each SA2 region are based on 2024 ABS and Geoscience Australia releases using 2022 as the baseline. For SA2 regions lacking this data, and for all periods beyond 2032, projections from the Queensland State Government released in 2023 utilizing 2021 data are used. Because these state-level projections lack age breakdowns, AreaSearch scales growth across age brackets using the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections based on 2022 data. Future demographic trends indicate expansion in the lowest quartile of national statistical areas, with projections at the SA2 level suggesting the suburb of Hemmant will add 151 residents by 2041, representing a total increase of 3.5% over the 16 years.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Hemmant

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

220 new dwellings have been approved in Hemmant over the past five years, an average of 44 a year. That places the area in the 74th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 12 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 54 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 59% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 30, well below 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 analysis of ABS building approvals allocated from statistical areas indicates that Hemmant averages approximately 44 annual dwelling approvals, with 220 homes approved over the 5 financial years spanning FY-21 to FY-25, and 28 approvals recorded so far during FY-26. With an average of 3.6 new residents added per year for each completed home during the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, residential supply is falling short of demand, which typically intensifies buyer competition and drives upward pressure on prices. The average value of these newly approved homes is $497,000, indicating developers are prioritizing upmarket, premium properties.

Furthermore, commercial development approvals total $42.2 million for the current financial year, pointing to robust local commercial activity. In comparison to Greater Brisbane, Hemmant has registered 227.0% more new home approvals per capita, offering increased options for purchasers despite a recent slowdown in construction activity. This volume is also considerably higher than the national average, pointing to strong developer interest in the area. The new supply comprises 59.0% detached houses and 41.0% attached dwellings, indicating a growing share of medium-density formats that diversify options across price ranges, from standard family residences to cheaper compact choices. This represents a distinct shift from the current housing stock, which is 91.0% houses, reflecting a decrease in vacant land and responding to changing buyer preferences and affordability pressures. The ratio of residents to annual dwelling approvals stands at approximately 254 people, suggesting capacity for expansion. Based on the most recent quarterly estimates by AreaSearch, Hemmant is projected to add 129 residents by 2041. Considering current construction trends, future residential supply is expected to comfortably accommodate demand, creating favorable buying conditions and potentially supporting population growth above projected levels.

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 — 121 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (2,886 at the 2021 Census → 3,657 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 (SAL31318). 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 Hemmant 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 Hemmant 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 Hemmant 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 (Jun 2026), property sales & rents (Aug 2026), infrastructure projects (Jul 2025) and services & amenities (Jul 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to May 2026), age profile (to May 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.
