Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

Growth has averaged 0.8% a year over five years. 271 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 59.0% of that increase. That puts 443 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 evaluations of ABS demographics reports for the surrounding territory, alongside validated addresses compiled by AreaSearch after the Census, the suburb of Redlynch has a resident count projected at approximately 11,230 in May 2026. This represents an expansion of 659 individuals (6.2%) from the 2021 Census, when the registered cohort stood at 10,571 people. The statistic is deduced from a resident base of 11,130, calculated by AreaSearch using the latest ABS ERP release (June 2025) plus an extra 271 validated new addresses following the Census. This population level translates to a density of 442 persons per square kilometer, which offers substantial space per individual and capacity for future housing projects.

Over the past ten years, the suburb of Redlynch has exhibited steady growth trends with a 1.3% compound annual growth rate, exceeding the SA4 regional benchmark. Demographic gains in the area were largely propelled by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 59.0% of the total population increases in recent times, though all components including overseas arrivals and natural expansion remained positive. AreaSearch incorporates ABS and Geoscience Australia long-term projections for each SA2 zone, published in 2024 using 2022 as the base year. For any SA2 localities missing from this dataset, and for any years beyond 2032, the Queensland State Government's SA2 projections, published in 2023 utilizing 2021 numbers, are applied. Because these state-level projections lack age breakdown details, AreaSearch distributes growth weightings across age cohorts matching the ABS Greater Capital Region projections (published in 2023, based on 2022 statistics). Looking at demographic trends ahead, an expansion rate slightly below the national regional median is anticipated, with the suburb of Redlynch projected to add 1,363 residents by 2041 under combined SA2 data, representing an overall rise of 11.2% across the 16 years.

Residential SupplyHousing Development & Building Approvals in Redlynch

Table Chart PROFILE FAQ

462 new dwellings have been approved in Redlynch over the past five years, an average of 92 a year. That places the area in the 62nd percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 8 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 82 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 98% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 51, 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

Based on AreaSearch's investigation of ABS building approvals distributed from localized data, Redlynch has averaged about 92 home approvals annually, totaling roughly 462 residences over the prior 5 financial years. Thus far in FY-26, 47 approvals have been logged. Since only approximately 0.9 people per year relocated to the area for each new home constructed over the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), the incoming supply matches or outstrips local demand, giving purchasers diverse options and creating room for demographic growth beyond current forecasts, with new homes averaging a construction value of $369,000.

Additionally, commercial development approvals reached $24.8 million this financial year, showing ongoing business investment. Relative to the Rest of Qld, Redlynch exhibits somewhat high building activity (19.0% higher than the regional per capita average over the 5 year period), which supports property values while preserving purchaser choice, though construction velocity has cooled lately. New residential works consist of 98.0% standalone houses and 2.0% townhouses or units, upholding the established low-density pattern with family-oriented layouts suited for buyers desiring space. With roughly 202 people per residential approval, Redlynch exhibits the traits of a low-density community. Demographic projections indicate Redlynch will add 1,263 community members by 2041 (calculated from the latest quarterly figures by AreaSearch). Under prevailing construction trends, upcoming residential supply is poised to satisfy demand comfortably, presenting favorable buyer dynamics and potentially supporting population expansion above current estimates.

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 — 271 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (10,571 at the 2021 Census → 11,230 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 (SAL32411). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.

Common questions about this page

How do Redlynch suburb boundaries differ from Statistical Areas?
This page uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries (suburb-style geography). SAL represents commonly-known suburb names used in addresses, while Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census/statistical reporting. Even when sharing the same name, SAL and SA2 boundaries often cover different geographic areas with different populations.
Where does the data on this Redlynch page come from?
AreaSearch compiles this page from official and industry sources — including ABS, Geoscience Australia, Valuer General, Provider directories, DEWR, JSA, State Transport Departments and ACARA — then aggregates them to the boundary shown and calculates the rankings, growth rates and benchmarks itself. Property sales come from the state valuation authority, rents from state rental bond lodgements, development applications from council and state planning portals, school data from ACARA, and public transport from state transport departments.
Is the Redlynch data on this page just from the 2021 Census?
No. Most of this page is maintained well beyond the Census. Sourced entirely from current releases: development & approvals (Jun 2026), property sales & rents (Aug 2026), infrastructure projects (Jul 2026) and services & amenities (Jul 2026). Built on a Census baseline but carrying newer measures on top: population (to May 2026), age profile (to May 2026), employment (to Mar 2026), income (to FY 2023), education (to Aug 2026), transport (to Jul 2026) and health (to 2024). Population and age cohorts in particular are re-based to the latest ABS Estimated Resident Population rather than left at 2021 counts. Only housing, households and cultural diversity remain wholly Census-based, because no more current small-area dataset exists for those measures.
