Hillcrest (Qld) has an estimated 7,410 residents, up from 6,268 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,142 people, or 18.2%. Growth has averaged 3.2% a year over five years, faster than 89% of areas nationally. 256 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 50.0% of that increase. That puts 2,266 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
An evaluation of regional ABS updates alongside newly validated addresses recorded by AreaSearch indicates that the suburb of Hillcrest (Qld) has reached an estimated population of approximately 7,410 as of Aug 2026. Comparing this to the 6,268 residents documented in the 2021 Census reveals an expansion of 1,142 people (18.2%). The figure builds upon an estimated resident count of 7,364 calculated by AreaSearch following the ABS ERP release in June 2025, combined with 256 validated new addresses established after the Census. Consequently, population density stands at 2,266 persons per square kilometer, tracking higher than the typical benchmark across nationwide locations monitored by AreaSearch.
Outperforming both state figures and the national average (9.5%), the suburb of Hillcrest (Qld) experienced an 18.2% expansion since the 2021 census to position itself as a notable growth pocket. Interstate migration served as the primary contributor by generating roughly 50.0% of recent population additions, complemented by positive inflows from overseas migration as well as natural growth. Population modelling incorporates the 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 series based on 2022 benchmarks. Where coverage is absent or extends beyond 2032, figures draw upon Queensland State Government SA2 projections published in 2023 utilizing 2021 baseline data. Because state datasets omit age-group breakdowns, AreaSearch applies cohort weightings aligned with the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections (derived from 2022 data). Looking ahead, the suburb of Hillcrest (Qld) is forecast to outpace median national statistical areas, adding 1,149 persons by 2041 under consolidated SA2 projections, which represents a cumulative gain of 14.9% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
415 new dwellings have been approved in Hillcrest (Qld) over the past five years, an average of 83 a year. That places the area in the 84th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 11 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 57 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 63% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 28, 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
Annual residential building approvals in Hillcrest average roughly 83 dwellings according to AreaSearch's evaluation of ABS figures. Over the preceding 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), an estimated 415 residences gained approval, with 28 approved during FY-25 to date. An influx of 3.8 people per year for every completed residence over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) demonstrates that local housing demand is substantially outstripping new supply, which tends to intensify buyer competition and elevate property prices while average construction costs stand at $413,000 per dwelling.
Furthermore, non-residential activity has seen $1.7 million in commercial development approvals in the current financial year, highlighting a focus primarily tilted toward residential projects. Per capita construction in Hillcrest sits at roughly half the rate recorded across Greater Brisbane, though it ranks within the 71st percentile across Australia. Recent building approvals comprise 63.0% detached houses alongside 37.0% townhouses or apartments, delivering a broader selection of medium-density formats that span various price points from standalone family properties to accessible compact options. This contrasts with the prevailing dwelling composition of 82.0% houses, reflecting both reduced availability of greenfield land and shifting preferences toward diverse housing choices. With around 168 people per dwelling approval, the local development pipeline remains active. Demographic projections indicate Hillcrest will gain 1,103 residents by 2041 relative to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly figure. If prevailing construction volumes persist, newly added residential stock appears well positioned to accommodate demand, fostering balanced market conditions for purchasers and potentially facilitating growth ahead of current forecasts.

3,877 residents of Hillcrest (Qld) are employed, from a labour force of 4,061. Unemployment sits at 4.5%, with participation at 70.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 5.9% 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 6,623, about 89% 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
Hillcrest maintains a mixed employment base covering blue-collar and white-collar occupations, underpinned by a notable industrial and manufacturing footprint and an unemployment rate of 4.5% according to aggregated statistical area figures from AreaSearch. As of March 2026, employed residents total 3,877, the local unemployment rate sits 0.2% above the Greater Brisbane benchmark of 4.3%, and labour force participation matches the wider metropolitan level of 70.1%. Census records show only 8.7% of local workers operated from home, a metric influenced by prevailing Covid-19 restrictions at the time. The primary employment sectors for local residents include health care & social assistance, retail trade, and manufacturing.
Manufacturing representation is especially pronounced, capturing an employment share 1.7 times the broader regional benchmark. Conversely, professional & technical roles account for only 2.6% of local employment, trailing the 8.9% observed across Greater Brisbane. A comparison between the resident workforce and locally situated jobs highlights that the suburb functions largely as a residential community with modest internal commercial employment capacity. Over the 12 months to March 2026, SALM and ABS figures aggregated by AreaSearch show a 1.8% contraction in the local labour force alongside a 2.6% reduction in employed persons, driving a 0.8 percentage points increase in the jobless rate. In contrast, Greater Brisbane saw employment rise by 3.2%, the labour force expand by 3.4%, and unemployment edge up by 0.1 percentage points. Looking forward, Jobs and Skills Australia projections from Mar-26 outline national employment growth expectations of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years. Mapping these sectoral projections against the local industry distribution suggests employment demand for Hillcrest residents could rise by 5.9% over five years and 12.6% over ten years, representing an illustrative weighted extrapolation that excludes localized population adjustments.

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 — 256 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (6,268 at the 2021 Census → 7,410 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.
