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.

Lindisfarne has an estimated 6,655 residents. That puts 959 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 research into ABS demographic updates for the wider region, alongside recent address points validated by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Lindisfarne has a population calculated at approximately 6,655 as of May 2026. This represents a minor rise of 16 people (0.2%) from the 2021 Census, which documented a population of 6,639 people. This shift is determined from a resident population of 6,636, calculated by AreaSearch using the latest ERP data release from the ABS (June 2025) and a further 79 validated new addresses post-Census. Such a population size translates to a density of 958 persons per square kilometer, which aligns closely with typical averages across locations evaluated by AreaSearch.
Demographic expansion was mostly driven by overseas migration, which made up roughly 78.0% of the overall population increases during recent periods. AreaSearch implements ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, published in 2024 using 2022 as the base year. For any SA2 regions lacking this coverage, and to calculate growth by age cohorts in the years after 2032, the Tasmania State Government's Regional/LGA projections, published in 2022 using 2021 as the base year, are utilized with adjustments via a weighted aggregation of population gains from LGA to SA2 levels. Looking at upcoming population trends, a demographic expansion slightly underneath the median of national statistical areas is anticipated, with the suburb of Lindisfarne projected to grow by 578 persons to 2041 using aggregated SA2-level forecasts, showing an overall rise of 8.4% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
51 new dwellings have been approved in Lindisfarne over the past five years, an average of 10 a year. That is 1.5 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 12, 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 AreaSearch analysis of ABS building approvals allocated from statistical area data, Lindisfarne has registered about 10 residential properties approved annually, with a total of 51 homes approved over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) and 11 so far in FY-26. Given an average of only 0.2 new residents per year per dwelling built over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), construction is meeting or exceeding demand, giving buyers extra options and allowing population growth to potentially outpace current forecasts, with new homes constructed at an average value of $531,000, indicating developers are focusing on the premium market segment with high-end properties.
Additionally, $200,000 in commercial approvals have been registered this financial year, showing the area's residential nature. Relative to Greater Hobart, Lindisfarne records significantly lower construction activity (75.0% below the regional average per person). This restricted new building supply generally supports demand and prices for established houses. This level is also below the national average, highlighting the established nature of the area and suggesting possible planning constraints. At the same time, new construction has consisted entirely of detached houses, maintaining the low-density character of the neighborhood with a focus on detached homes that attract buyers looking for space. The estimated figure of 1211 people in the area per dwelling approval highlights a quiet development landscape with low activity. Demographic forecasts point to Lindisfarne adding 559 residents up to 2041 (starting from the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate). If current building rates continue, housing supply could fall behind demographic growth, which is likely to increase buyer competition and support price appreciation.

3,226 residents of Lindisfarne are employed, from a labour force of 3,298. Unemployment sits at 2.2%, with participation at 57.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.7% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 5,450, about 82% 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
Lindisfarne is characterized by a highly educated labor force, strong representation in essential services industries, an unemployment rate of only 2.2%, and relatively stable employment over the past year, according to AreaSearch aggregations of statistical area data. As of March 2026, 3,226 residents are employed, with the unemployment rate sitting 2.2% below the Greater Hobart rate of 4.4%, while workforce participation is notably lower (57.7% compared to Greater Hobart's 63.8%). Census data shows a low 8.1% of residents worked from home, although Covid-19 lockdown impacts should be taken into account.
The primary employment sectors for local residents are health care & social assistance, public administration & safety, and education & training. The area exhibits a notable specialization in public administration & safety, with an employment share 1.2 times the regional benchmark. Conversely, the construction sector is under-represented, employing only 7.5% of Lindisfarne's workforce compared to 8.7% across Greater Hobart. The largely residential community seems to provide few local employment opportunities, as shown by the comparison of the Census working population against the resident population. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS data aggregated from broader statistical areas, during the year leading to March 2026, employment levels rose by 0.4% and the labor force expanded by 0.2%, resulting in a 0.2 percentage point decline in the unemployment rate. This stands in contrast to Greater Hobart, where employment shrunk by 0.1%, the labor force grew by 0.2%, and unemployment increased by 0.3 percentage points. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 offer additional context regarding potential future demand in Lindisfarne. These forecasts, spanning five and ten-year horizons, have been applied to the local employment profile to estimate growth trends. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, growth rates vary widely by industry. Applying these sector-specific forecasts to the Lindisfarne employment profile suggests local employment is set to rise by 6.7% over five years and 13.8% over ten years (note that this is a simple weighting extrapolation for illustration and does not incorporate local population forecasts).

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 — 79 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (6,639 at the 2021 Census → 6,655 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 (SAL60342). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
