Sales Detail
Oonoonba has an estimated 2,194 residents, up from 2,050 at the 2021 Census — a change of 144 people, or 7.0%. Growth has averaged 2.1% a year over five years. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 46.0% of that increase. That puts 854 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 analysis of ABS population updates for the broader area, and new addresses validated by AreaSearch since the Census Oonoonba's population is estimated at around 2,194 as of Aug 26. This reflects an increase of 144 people (7.0%) since the 2021 Census, which reported a population of 2,050 people. The change is inferred from the resident population of 2,194, estimated by AreaSearch following examination of the latest ERP data release by the ABS (June 2025) and an additional 16 validated new addresses since the Census date. This level of population equates to a density ratio of 853 persons per square kilometer, which is relatively in line with averages seen across locations assessed by AreaSearch.
Over the past decade, Oonoonba has demonstrated resilient growth patterns with a 3.1% compound annual growth rate, outpacing the SA3 area. Population growth for the area was primarily driven by interstate migration that contributed approximately 46.0% of overall population gains during recent periods, although all drivers including overseas migration and natural growth were positive factors. SA2 geographic projections utilized by AreaSearch originate from the 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia dataset using 2022 as its base year. Where SA2 regions lack this coverage, or across periods beyond 2032, models incorporate Queensland State Government SA2 projections published in 2023 utilizing 2021 baseline figures. Because state-level releases omit age group breakdowns, AreaSearch applies cohort growth distributions derived from the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023 using 2022 data). Demographic forecasts indicate expansion surpassing the median for non-metropolitan Australian localities, with the suburb of Oonoonba anticipated to gain 424 persons by 2041 across aggregated SA2 projections, representing an overall expansion of 19.3% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
30 new dwellings have been approved in Oonoonba over the past five years, an average of 6 a year. That is 1.8 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 3, 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 by AreaSearch of ABS residential approvals indicates that Oonoonba generated an average of roughly 6 new dwelling permits annually, reaching an aggregate of 30 homes throughout the past 5 financial years. Within FY-25 to date, 3 approvals have been documented. With an influx averaging 11.2 new residents per year arriving per dwelling constructed across the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, residential demand comfortably outpaces additions to supply, generally exerting upward pressure on property values and intensifying buyer interest. Newly built dwellings carry an average construction value of $283,000, sitting beneath regional figures and providing comparatively accessible price points.
Furthermore, $5.1 million in commercial approvals was registered during the current financial year, highlighting a modest level of commercial building activity. Residential development in Oonoonba remains substantially subdued relative to Rest of Qld, trailing regional per capita averages by 57.0%. Such limited additions to dwelling supply typically sustain buyer competition and price levels across established homes. Activity also tracks below nationwide benchmarks, indicating an established urban footprint and potential constraints on site development. Recent residential building permits are divided between 50.0% detached houses and 50.0% townhouses or apartments. Emphasizing higher-density formats provides more accessible price thresholds, catering effectively to downsizers, property investors, and first-home buyers. This marks a clear pivot away from the local baseline stock of 74.0% houses, signaling declining availability of greenfield land alongside shifting resident preferences for varied, entry-level accommodation options. A ratio of 1098 people in the area per dwelling approval underscores the calm, subdued pace of local construction activity. Moving forward, Oonoonba is projected to add 424 residents by 2041 according to the most recent AreaSearch quarterly update. If building activity remains at its current modest pace, dwelling completions could fall short of resident inflows, heightening market competition and supporting ongoing value appreciation.

1,329 residents of Oonoonba are employed, from a labour force of 1,387. Unemployment sits at 4.2%, with participation at 71.0%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.3% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 1,579, about 72% 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
A proficient labor pool characterizes Oonoonba, showing substantial representation across key service industries and an overall jobless rate of 4.2%, based on AreaSearch statistical aggregations. By March 2026, employed residents reached 1,329, with unemployment sitting 0.3% above the 3.9% recorded across Regional Qld. Concurrently, labor participation proved exceptionally strong at 71.0%, outpacing the regional figure of 64.2%. Census records show a modest 4.4% of workers operating from home, an outcome potentially shaped by Covid-19 restrictions. The primary employment sectors for local residents consist of public administration & safety, health care & social assistance, and retail trade.
Notably, the local workforce exhibits pronounced specialization in public administration & safety, capturing an employment share 3.7 times the regional standard. Conversely, agriculture, forestry & fishing accounts for a minimal footprint, engaging only 0.8% of local workers compared to 4.5% across Regional Qld. Because the locality is overwhelmingly residential, local job availability appears restricted when comparing Census workplace counts against resident numbers. AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistical data indicates that during the 12 months to March 2026, the local labor pool contracted by 1.8% alongside an identical 1.8% decline in total employment, maintaining a steady jobless rate. In contrast, Regional Qld saw employment rise by 0.1% and the labor force expand by 0.3%, driving a 0.1 percentage point increase in unemployment. Future workplace requirements can be evaluated using national industry projections from Jobs and Skills Australia as of Mar-26. Applied across the local industry distribution, these five- and ten-year models illustrate anticipated trajectories. Nationally, job numbers are projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though expansion varies widely by sector. Aligning these sector projections with the local economic base implies employment growth of 6.3% over five years and 13.3% over ten years (representing an illustrative weighted calculation that excludes localized demographic projections).

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 — 16 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,050 at the 2021 Census → 2,194 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.
