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.

Sales Detail
Maryborough (Qld) has an estimated 15,784 residents, up from 15,287 at the 2021 Census — a change of 497 people, or 3.3%. That puts 596 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 AreaSearch evaluations combining ABS regional demographic releases and newly confirmed addresses post-Census, the suburb of Maryborough (Qld) records an estimated 15,784 residents as of Aug 2026. Relative to the 15,287 individuals tallied in the 2021 Census, this demonstrates an expansion of 497 people (3.3%). This updated figure stems from an estimated base of 15,752 derived from the ABS ERP publication of June 2025 alongside 33 validated new addresses recorded since the Census. With a density of 596 persons per square kilometer, the locality offers ample space per resident and room for prospective expansion.
Net gains were predominantly powered by interstate migration, which represented around 82.0% of the overall population influx during recent timeframes. Projections generated by ABS/Geoscience Australia (issued in 2024 with a 2022 baseline) are applied by AreaSearch across SA2 locations. In areas omitted from that release and across projections beyond 2032, Queensland State Government SA2 estimates published in 2023 (utilising 2021 data) are used instead. Because age-bracket distributions are absent from these state models, AreaSearch incorporates age-cohort growth proportions from the ABS Greater Capital Region forecasts (issued in 2023 based on 2022 figures). Demographically, the suburb of Maryborough (Qld) is on track for a population trajectory slightly trailing non-capital regional medians, with SA2 aggregates indicating an addition of 804 persons by 2041, representing a cumulative 4.9% expansion over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
108 new dwellings have been approved in Maryborough (Qld) over the past five years, an average of 21 a year. That is 1.5 approvals per 1,000 residents. Of the 23 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 83% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 24, 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
Statistical area data processed by AreaSearch on ABS building consents reveals that Maryborough averages approximately 21 residential approvals annually, totaling roughly 108 residential approvals across the preceding 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 24 logged to date in FY-25. Demonstrating steady demand that underpins housing values, an average of 2.6 incoming residents per dwelling was recorded across the last 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25). Newly constructed dwellings carry an average construction value of $434,000, sitting beneath wider regional benchmarks to offer cost-effective entry points for buyers.
Furthermore, non-residential building activity has been robust, with $56.2 million in commercial approvals recorded during the current financial year. Residential building volumes in Maryborough lag substantially behind regional benchmarks, registering 77.0% below the per-capita average for Rest of Qld. This subdued pipeline of new stock typically reinforces pricing and demand for existing properties. Overall construction volumes also trail national figures, highlighting the locality's established profile alongside potential town planning constraints. Within newly approved builds, 83.0% are detached dwellings while 17.0% consist of medium and high-density structures, safeguarding the neighbourhood's open, low-density character while catering to buyers pursuing standalone houses. A low-activity development landscape is further evidenced by a ratio of 630 residents for each approved dwelling. Demographic projections indicate an addition of 772 residents to Maryborough through to 2041, according to the latest quarterly figures from AreaSearch. Although residential building activity is progressing at a reasonable rate relative to this anticipated expansion, purchasers may face intensifying competition as the local population expands.

Frequently Asked Questions - Infrastructure
Energy Storage Industries (ESI) Battery Manufacturing Facility
Australia's first commercial-scale manufacturing plant for grid-scale iron flow batteries, located in Maryborough in Queensland's Fraser Coast region. The $70 million facility uses iron flow battery technology licensed from Oregon-based ESS Inc, assembling batteries capable of up to 14 hours of energy storage with a 25-year operational life. Construction began in September 2024 with Wide Bay-Burnett contractor IDC Construct as the lead builder. ESI is targeting first battery production by end of 2025, scaling to 200MW per year by 2026 and 400MW per year by 2029 - enough to power a city the size of Toowoomba annually.The project is backed by a $25 million Queensland Government debt and equity investment, $40 million from a UK-based fund, and a further $3 million REFF grant for electrolyte production capacity. When fully operational by mid-2029, the plant will support up to 273 full-time jobs and supply wholesale electricity generators, energy retailers, and commercial and industrial customers across Australia and the Asia-Pacific.

6,219 residents of Maryborough (Qld) are employed, from a labour force of 6,761. Unemployment sits at 8.0%, with participation at 50.1%. 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. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Labour force statistics compiled by AreaSearch indicate that Maryborough maintains a balanced mix across blue and white collar occupations alongside a solid presence in essential services, registering an unemployment rate of 8.0% and an estimated 9.3% expansion in employment over the preceding year. As of March 2026, employed residents stand at 6,219, though the local jobless rate sits 4.1% above the 3.9% recorded in Regional Qld, and participation remains subdued at 50.1% versus 64.2% across Regional Qld. Census data revealed that just 5.4% of workers operated from home, though pandemic-related lockdown measures may have influenced these figures.
Local workforce participation is primarily clustered within health care & social assistance, retail trade, and education & training. The health care & social assistance sector exhibits notable prominence, with local representation reaching 1.3 times the wider regional benchmark. Conversely, the construction industry is less prevalent, engaging 6.8% of Maryborough workers compared to 10.1% across Regional Qld. The balance between resident employees and local working counts indicates that this largely residential community provides limited employment opportunities within its boundaries. AreaSearch analysis of ABS and SALM metrics over the 12 months leading to March 2026 shows local employment expanding by 9.3% and the labour force increasing by 4.8%, delivering a 3.8 percentage point reduction in the unemployment rate. Over the identical timeframe, Regional Qld saw employment rise by 0.1% and the labour force increase by 0.3%, resulting in a 0.1 percentage point uptick. For broader context on future labour demand, Jobs and Skills Australia releases from Mar-26 project nationwide employment gains of 6.6% across five years and 13.7% over ten years. Weighting these sectoral projections against Maryborough's existing occupational profile suggests prospective local employment growth of 6.4% across five years and 13.6% across ten years, serving as an illustrative industry-based extrapolation without local 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 — 33 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (15,287 at the 2021 Census → 15,784 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 (SAL31778). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
