Sales Detail
Kallangur has an estimated 24,061 residents, up from 21,761 at the 2021 Census — a change of 2,300 people, or 10.6%. Growth has averaged 1.2% a year over five years. 267 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Natural increase accounts for 41.0% of that increase. That puts 2,131 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 Kallangur has an estimated resident count of roughly 24,061, according to AreaSearch evaluations combining wider ABS demographic updates with post-Census validated address counts. This represents an addition of 2,300 people (10.6%) compared to the 21,761 people counted in the 2021 Census. AreaSearch arrived at this figure by analyzing the resident population of 23,481 from the June 2025 ABS ERP release alongside 267 validated new addresses identified following the Census date. Consequently, the suburb of Kallangur records a density of 2,131 persons per square kilometer, outpacing typical nationwide benchmark figures assessed by AreaSearch.
Furthermore, the 10.6% expansion recorded since the 2021 census exceeded the national average of 9.5%, positioning the suburb of Kallangur at the forefront of regional growth. Natural increase served as the principal driver of this expansion, accounting for roughly 41.0% of recent population additions, with overseas migration and interstate migration also contributing positively. Projections generated by ABS/Geoscience Australia (released in 2024 with a 2022 baseline) are applied by AreaSearch across SA2 locations, while Queensland State Government SA2 forecasts (issued in 2023 utilizing 2021 data) cover any remaining areas as well as timeframes beyond 2032. Because the state-level figures omit age-specific breakdowns, AreaSearch applies proportional distribution weightings derived from the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023 with 2022 data) across individual cohorts. Demographic forecasting places the suburb of Kallangur in the upper quartile of Australian statistical territories, with aggregated SA2-level figures projecting a gain of 6,220 persons to 2041, which equates to an overall growth rate of 23.4% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
360 new dwellings have been approved in Kallangur over the past five years, an average of 72 a year. That places the area in the 69th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 3 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 56 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 36% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 33, 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
Analysis of statistical area building approvals by AreaSearch shows that the suburb of Kallangur secures roughly 72 residential construction approvals each year, totaling approximately 360 approved homes across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) alongside 33 approved to date in FY-25. The addition of 4.8 new residents annually for every dwelling completed over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) reveals that demand substantially outstrips construction activity, a trend that regularly accelerates buyer competition and drives prices upward. Concurrently, approved dwellings carry an average construction cost of $319,000—a level below regional benchmarks that highlights a more accessible price point for new construction.
Non-residential activity remains modest, with $142,000 in commercial approvals logged during the current financial year, underlining a heavily residential development environment. Recent residential building approvals are distributed between detached houses at 36.0% and medium-to-high density formats like townhouses and apartments at 64.0%. This emphasis on higher-density builds provides more accessible entry-level options while appealing to downsizers, property investors, and first-home buyers. It also represents a noticeable pivot from the established built environment, which currently consists of 74.0% houses, reflecting tighter supplies of greenfield land alongside shifting resident preferences and affordability constraints. The ratio of approximately 394 people per dwelling approval demonstrates a mature, established residential market. Based on the most recent AreaSearch quarterly estimate, demographic modeling projects that the local population will expand by 5,640 residents through to 2041. Should residential construction continue at prevailing levels, dwelling completions may struggle to keep up with demographic gains, potentially heightening competition across the market and underpinning accelerated asset value growth.

The main construction contract was awarded to a joint venture of Albem Operations and SCQ. As of April 2026, traffic switches onto newly built lanes are underway, with the project supporting up to 340 jobs during construction.
Kallangur-Dakabin Neighbourhood Planning Project
A neighbourhood planning initiative that has successfully created a Future Directions Report to guide growth and development in Kallangur-Dakabin. The area is projected to grow by 10,400 people by 2041, bringing the population to an estimated 38,000 residents. The endorsed report establishes a shared vision, strategies and actions for the area while considering local character and identity, with current population of 29,344 as of June 2024.
11,823 residents of Kallangur are employed, from a labour force of 13,265. Unemployment sits at 10.9%, with participation at 69.2%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.4% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 19,311, about 80% 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 labour market presents a balanced distribution of blue-collar and white-collar roles with substantial representation across public administration and community services, alongside an unemployment rate of 10.9% and annual employment growth estimated at 0.6% based on AreaSearch statistical aggregations. By March 2026, the employed resident count reached 11,823, while the jobless rate stood 6.5% above the Greater Brisbane benchmark of 4.3%, indicating potential for labour absorption, even as the local participation rate closely mirrored Greater Brisbane's 70.1%. Census records indicated that only 12.3% of workers operated from home, though this figure was influenced by Covid-19 movement restrictions.
Local employment is predominantly concentrated in health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction. Retail trade represents a major area of specialization, employing workers at 1.3 times the wider regional proportion. Conversely, the professional & technical sector captures only 5.0% of the local workforce, trailing Greater Brisbane's 8.9%. Comparing resident workers to the local daytime working population highlights that this largely residential district provides a relatively constrained pool of internal employment opportunities. AreaSearch analysis of ABS and SALM data over the preceding 12-month period indicates that employment grew by 0.6% while the local labour force expanded by 0.3%, driving a 0.2 percentage point reduction in the unemployment rate. Over the same timeframe, Greater Brisbane recorded employment gains of 3.2% alongside labour supply growth of 3.4%, resulting in a 0.1 percentage point increase in joblessness. Broader outlooks from Jobs and Skills Australia (Mar-26) outline medium and long-term national trends that help contextualize local trajectory. While countrywide employment is projected to expand by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, industry-level expansion varies substantially. Mapping these national projections across the existing local industry composition implies an employment increase of 6.4% over five years and 13.4% over ten years (noting this illustrative weighting exercise excludes small-area 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 — 267 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (21,761 at the 2021 Census → 24,061 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 (SAL31475). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
