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
Pomona (Qld) has an estimated 3,095 residents, up from 2,931 at the 2021 Census — a change of 164 people, or 5.6%. Growth has averaged 0.8% a year over five years. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 72.0% of that increase. Density is about 58 people per 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 investigations of ABS population statistics for the surrounding region and address points verified by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Pomona (Qld) has an estimated residency of approximately 3,095 as of May 2026. This represents a growth of 164 people (5.6%) from the 2021 Census, which recorded 2,931 individuals. The estimate is derived from a resident count of 3,085, calculated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 ERP release, combined with an extra 33 verified new addresses since the Census. This population size results in a density of 57 persons per square kilometer, indicating a spacious living environment.
Population gains were primarily driven by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 72.0% of the overall growth, though other factors such as overseas arrivals and natural increase also made positive contributions. For each SA2 boundary, AreaSearch utilizes ABS and Geoscience Australia projections published in 2024 with a 2022 baseline. In instances where SA2 regions lack this coverage, or for periods extending beyond 2032, projections from the Queensland State Government released in 2023 and based on 2021 statistics are used. Because these state-level projections lack age breakdowns, AreaSearch distributes growth across age groups using ratios from the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023 using 2022 data). Looking at upcoming demographic changes, the suburb of Pomona (Qld) is projected to experience growth slightly under the median for regional parts of Australia, with SA2 projections indicating a rise of 289 individuals up to 2041, representing a total increase of 9.0% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
123 new dwellings have been approved in Pomona (Qld) over the past five years, an average of 24 a year. That places the area in the 56th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 8 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 24 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 79% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 8, 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
AreaSearch analysis of ABS building approvals assigned from localized statistical data shows that Pomona averages approximately 24 approved residential dwellings each year, with 123 homes approved over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) and 8 recorded so far in FY-26. With new resident intake averaging only 0.9 people per new dwelling annually over those 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), the supply of housing is keeping pace with or outstripping demand, providing buyers with plenty of options and creating room for population expansion beyond current estimates.
The average construction cost for these new homes is $859,000, indicating that developers are focusing on the high-end, premium market. Furthermore, commercial approvals totaling $3.1 million have been logged in the current financial year, which highlights the area's predominantly residential nature. Compared to the Rest of Qld, Pomona experiences 76.0% higher development volume on a per-person basis, offering prospective buyers a wide range of choices. The approved new builds consist of 79.0% standalone houses and 21.0% multi-dwelling units or townhouses, maintaining a low-density environment focused on detached properties for buyers wanting space. This indicates a notable shift from the current housing stock (which stands at 98.0% houses), pointing to a decrease in available development land and reflecting shifting lifestyle desires and affordability challenges. With approximately 76 people for each approved dwelling, Pomona remains a low-density locality. Moving forward, Pomona is projected to add 279 residents by 2041, relative to the most recent quarterly estimates from AreaSearch. Based on current building trends, the supply of new housing is positioned to easily satisfy demand, creating favorable buying conditions and potentially supporting population growth that exceeds current predictions.

1,384 residents of Pomona (Qld) are employed, from a labour force of 1,433. Unemployment sits at 3.4%, with participation at 54.6%. 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 2,558, about 83% 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
Pomona is home to a qualified workforce with a strong presence in essential services, showing an unemployment rate of just 3.4% according to AreaSearch calculations of regional data. In March 2026, there were 1,384 employed residents, representing an unemployment rate 0.5% lower than the 3.9% recorded in Regional Qld. However, participation in the labor force is low, standing at 54.6% compared to 64.3% in Regional Qld. Census data indicates that a moderate 16.2% of the workforce operated from home, though this figure may have been influenced by pandemic lockdowns. The primary sectors employing local residents are health care & social assistance, construction, and education & training.
The community shows a strong concentration in construction, employing 1.3 times the regional average. Conversely, transport, postal & warehousing accounts for only 2.0% of local jobs, compared to 4.3% across Regional Qld. A comparison of the Census working population against resident worker counts suggests that local employment opportunities within the area are limited. AreaSearch evaluations of SALM and ABS statistics for the broader region show that in the 12 months leading to March 2026, the local workforce shrank by 3.0% and total employment fell by 3.7%, leading to a 0.6 percentage point rise in unemployment. This stands in contrast to Regional Qld, where employment expanded by 0.1%, the workforce grew by 0.3%, and unemployment ticked up by 0.1 percentage points. National employment projections from Jobs and Skills Australia published in May-25 offer additional context on future labor demand in Pomona. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce structure to model future trends. Globally, national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though individual industries vary. Applying these sector-specific rates to Pomona's job distribution suggests local employment could grow by 6.4% over five years and 13.4% over ten years, assuming a basic weighted extrapolation for demonstration purposes that excludes localized population changes.

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 May 2026, not a 2021 count (2,931 at the 2021 Census → 3,095 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.
