Sales Detail
Logan Village has an estimated 6,651 residents, up from 5,316 at the 2021 Census — a change of 1,335 people, or 25.1%. Growth has averaged 4.6% a year over five years, faster than 93% of areas nationally. 523 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 71.0% of that increase. That puts 169 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 Logan Village has an estimated population of approximately 6,651, based on AreaSearch evaluations of updated ABS regional figures alongside post-Census validated new addresses. Compared to the 5,316 residents recorded in the 2021 Census, this represents an addition of 1,335 people (25.1%). The updated figure is drawn from an estimated resident population of 6,569 determined from the ABS June 2025 ERP release, combined with 523 validated new addresses identified following the Census. With a density of 168 persons per square kilometer, the locality offers generous living room and substantial capacity for future expansion.
The suburb of Logan Village outpaced both the state and the 9.5% national benchmark with its 25.1% increase since the 2021 census, establishing itself as a prominent regional growth center. Inflows from interstate migration served as the primary growth engine, accounting for roughly 71.0% of recent population additions, while overseas migration and natural growth also provided positive contributions. Projections compiled by ABS/Geoscience Australia (issued in 2024 using a 2022 baseline) are applied by AreaSearch across SA2 boundaries. For years following 2032 or locations outside that dataset, 2023 Queensland State Government SA2 projections founded on 2021 benchmarks are implemented. Because state forecasts omit age brackets, AreaSearch integrates proportional weightings from the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections (2022 baseline) across respective age groups. Looking ahead, the suburb of Logan Village is anticipated to experience growth exceeding the national median, gaining 985 persons by 2041 across aggregated SA2 modeling, which translates to a cumulative expansion of 13.6% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
424 new dwellings have been approved in Logan Village over the past five years, an average of 84 a year. That places the area in the 94th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 13 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 87 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 86% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 83, 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
ABS building approval statistics compiled by AreaSearch indicate that Logan Village averages approximately 84 residential dwelling consents annually. Across the previous 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), 424 homes received planning consent, alongside 83 approvals recorded to date in FY-25. With an intake averaging 3 new residents each year for every dwelling constructed over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), structural demand heavily exceeds construction volume, creating intense buyer competition and upward pricing momentum. Dwellings under construction show an average value of $374,000, aligning with regional benchmarks, while $13.4 million in commercial development approvals logged this financial year highlights steady commercial building activity.
Logan Village generates about 61% of Greater Brisbane's per-capita building volume, yet sits within the 90th percentile among nationally evaluated regions. This placement significantly clears the countrywide benchmark, demonstrating strong builder and developer engagement. Detached houses account for 86.0% of recent residential additions while attached configurations represent 14.0%, preserving a low-density neighborhood layout tailored to families prioritizing spacious living. A metric of roughly 71 people per approval underscores the expanding nature of the precinct. According to the latest quarterly estimates from AreaSearch, Logan Village is forecast to welcome 903 additional residents by 2041. Sustaining present construction volumes will allow incoming residential supply to comfortably absorb projected household growth, fostering favorable buyer conditions and potentially enabling expansion beyond current demographic forecasts.

Frequently Asked Questions - Infrastructure
Logan's Run Residential Development
Masterplanned residential community by Lennium Group in the Logan Village growth corridor. The estate is planned to deliver around 450 residential lots with landscaped open space and supporting community infrastructure. Public information indicates the project remains approved, with no clear evidence that full construction has commenced.
Chambers Flat Wastewater Treatment Plant
A new wastewater treatment plant being delivered by Logan Water on a 144-hectare Council-owned site at Pleasant View Road, Chambers Flat, to service the fast-growing development corridor extending from Park Ridge through Logan Village to Yarrabilba. The facility is the anchor asset of the Yarrabilba and Park Ridge wastewater servicing scheme and replaces earlier reliance on the constrained Loganholme and Cedar Grove networks. Stage 1 is sized at approximately 40,000 to 60,000 equivalent persons, with the site masterplanned to an ultimate capacity of at least 150,000 EP across three stages.The plant will use membrane bioreactor technology, a biological treatment process with fine filtration, and is designed to treat up to five times average dry weather flow before any screened and de-gritted bypass to the Logan River. Around 90 hectares of the site is set aside for on-site irrigation reuse under the environmental licence issued by the Department of Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation, with drip irrigation to boundary screening vegetation and spray irrigation across central cropping areas. Supporting elements include a reduced-scale solar array occupying roughly three per cent of the site, a native tree buffer and wildlife corridor planting, an upgraded emergency flood access road from McPherson Road, and land set aside for expansion of the Mustangs Football Club fields and car park. In June 2025 the Queensland Government committed $135.98 million from the $2 billion Residential Activation Fund toward the $334.53 million project, with Logan City Council funding the balance including conveyance pipework, pump stations and the Park Ridge to Chambers Flat trunk pipeline. Detailed design is underway, early site works and buffer tree planting commenced in early 2026, and construction is expected to run for approximately three years. The plant will unlock more than 20,000 new dwellings in its first stage from 2028 and support in excess of 60,000 homes at ultimate capacity. Cultural heritage investigations are being carried out on the site in partnership with the Danggan Balun (Five Rivers) People, and a Community Reference Group established by Council continues to guide site masterplanning.
Yarrabilba Central
Yarrabilba Central is the planned mixed-use town centre for the Yarrabilba Priority Development Area. The precinct will include a sub-regional shopping centre, retail, commercial offices, civic and community facilities, entertainment and higher-density residential development. During 2026, bulk earthworks and supporting road infrastructure continued while subdivision approvals progressed. Stage 1 development applications are being prepared with Economic Development Queensland as the project moves toward initial construction.
Yarrabilba Priority Development Area
Yarrabilba is a 2,222 hectare Priority Development Area and one of South East Queensland's largest masterplanned communities. Stockland continues to deliver staged residential, retail, employment and community infrastructure. Current projects include the Dixon Circuit retail precinct, MountView mixed-use apartments, Park Lane terraces, MIBA South industrial estate, future Town Centre earthworks, the Jimbillunga Drive and Wentland Avenue extension, and the Waterford-Tamborine Road intersection upgrade. The community is planned to deliver around 20,000 dwellings for approximately 50,000 residents.
Chambers Flat Wastewater Treatment Plant
Logan Water is planning a new wastewater treatment plant at Chambers Flat to service 60,000 equivalent persons and unlock over 20,000 new homes across Yarrabilba, Park Ridge, and Logan Village. The Queensland Government has committed $135.98 million towards the $334.53 million project. Design is underway, with first effluent flows expected mid to late 2028.
Yarrabilba Health City
Yarrabilba Health City is a purpose-built specialist medical precinct on Adler Circuit in Yarrabilba, established in May 2023 to bring cardiology, oncology, radiology, dental and allied health services to the fast-growing Logan community. The multi-tenant facility houses providers including Radiant Radiology, Yarrabilba Cardiology and Specialist Centre, and FB Dental, reducing the need for residents to travel to Brisbane or the Gold Coast for specialist care.
Yarrabilba Dollarbird Drive Intersection
Signalised intersection on Waterford-Tamborine Road at Dollarbird Drive to provide a second access point to the Stockland Yarrabilba community. The $20 million project is jointly funded ($10m Queensland Government Residential Activation Fund, $10m Stockland) and is expected to unlock 4,900 new homes within the Yarrabilba Priority Development Area. The intersection links into the new Jimbillunga Drive corridor, a separate $30 million Stockland-funded project delivered by Golding Contractors along a 2.5 kilometre stretch including the Wentland Avenue extension.Works began in late 2025 and are progressing, with completion targeted for mid-2027.
The Buzz at Yarrabilba
The Buzz at Yarrabilba is a $7.4 million multi-purpose community hub providing training, education, and social spaces. The facility includes meeting rooms, youth spaces, and vocational training services managed by YMCA Queensland.
3,502 residents of Logan Village are employed, from a labour force of 3,633. Unemployment sits at 3.6%, with participation at 65.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.2% 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 5,084, 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
Logan Village features a diversified labour pool across professional and trade disciplines, anchored by strong construction sector representation and an unemployment rate of 3.6% based on aggregated statistical area figures from AreaSearch. The local workforce numbered 3,502 employed individuals as of March 2026. The local jobless rate rests 0.7% below the Greater Brisbane figure of 4.3%, while overall labour participation of 65.7% tracks underneath the regional mark of 70.1%. Census records show 14.5% of working residents operated from home, though pandemic-era restrictions during that period should be noted. Local workers are largely clustered within construction, health care & social assistance, and manufacturing.
Construction concentration is exceptionally high, recording a presence 2.2 times the wider metropolitan benchmark. Conversely, professional & technical occupations are underrepresented at 4.7% compared with the 8.9% regional rate. Disparities between resident workers and Census daytime employment numbers suggest the suburb functions primarily as a residential district with modest internal job creation. AreaSearch evaluations of ABS and SALM metrics over the 12 months to March 2026 reveal a 0.8% contraction in the labour pool and a 1.7% decrease in working persons, lifting unemployment by 0.9 percentage points. In contrast, Greater Brisbane saw jobs rise by 3.2%, the workforce grow by 3.4%, and unemployment edge up by 0.1 percentage points. Industry projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26 provide context for local workforce trajectory across five and ten-year horizons. Nationally, jobs are expected to expand by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though individual sector outcomes diverge. Mapping these sectoral rates to the employment distribution of Logan Village points to local job gains of 6.2% across five years and 12.8% across ten years, representing an illustrative weighting extrapolation independent of local demographic 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 — 523 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (5,316 at the 2021 Census → 6,651 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.
