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
Regents Park (Qld) has an estimated 11,838 residents, up from 11,103 at the 2021 Census — a change of 735 people, or 6.6%. Growth has averaged 0.8% a year over five years. Natural increase accounts for 52.0% of that increase. That puts 2,477 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 assessments of recent ABS demographic releases for the wider region, alongside newly verified addresses from AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Regents Park (Qld) has a population calculated at approximately 11,838 in May 2026. This represents a growth of 735 people (6.6%) from the 2021 Census, which registered 11,103 people. This trend is drawn from a resident count of 11,835, calculated by AreaSearch using the latest ABS ERP release (June 2025) plus 42 validated new addresses identified since the Census. Such population numbers translate to 2,476 persons per square kilometer, placing the locality in the top quartile of areas analyzed nationally by AreaSearch.
The post-census expansion rate of 6.6% sits within 2.7 percentage points of the nationwide benchmark (9.3%), indicating healthy underlying growth. The expansion was chiefly fueled by natural increase, which was responsible for about 52.0% of the overall population rise in recent times. AreaSearch incorporates the 2024 demographic projections from ABS and Geoscience Australia, using 2022 as the baseline. For SA2 regions lacking this coverage, or for periods beyond 2032, projections from the Queensland Government published in 2023 using 2021 data are substituted. Since the state-level models do not segment by age brackets, AreaSearch distributes age group weightings based on the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections (using 2022 baseline data) for each demographic group. Based on these anticipated shifts, growth in the suburb of Regents Park (Qld) is projected to align with the bottom quartile of national statistical areas, with a forecasted increase of 157 residents by 2041 under aggregated SA2 projections, representing a total rise of 1.3% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
96 new dwellings have been approved in Regents Park (Qld) over the past five years, an average of 19 a year. That is 1.7 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 30, running ahead of 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 building permit data assigned from local statistics indicates that Regents Park has maintained an average of approximately 19 new home approvals annually, with 96 dwellings authorized over the last 5 financial years (running from FY-21 to FY-25) and 28 so far during FY-26. With an average of 4.7 new residents arriving per finished dwelling over those 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25), demand far outstrips the supply of new housing, which typically drives up values and intensifies competition among buyers, while new residences carry an average building cost of $425,000—slightly higher than the region-wide average—pointing to a focus on higher-quality projects.
Furthermore, commercial permits worth $18.6 million have been registered this financial year, showing a moderate level of non-residential construction activity. When compared against Greater Brisbane, Regents Park displays a low level of building activity (90.0% below the regional per capita average). This shortage of incoming properties generally supports demand and prices for existing stock. The building rate is also below the national average, reflecting the mature nature of the locality and hinting at potential zoning or planning constraints. Detached houses account for 88.0% of new construction, with apartments or townhouses making up the remaining 12.0%, maintaining the suburban character of the area with family-oriented layouts. The area averages roughly 693 people for each approved dwelling, pointing to a highly established housing market. Long-term outlooks indicate that Regents Park will gain 154 residents by 2041 (calculated from the most recent AreaSearch quarterly release). At current building rates, the incoming housing volume appears sufficient to satisfy demand, creating a balanced environment for purchasers and potentially supporting growth that outpaces current expectations.

6,499 residents of Regents Park (Qld) are employed, from a labour force of 6,752. Unemployment sits at 3.7%, with participation at 72.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.0% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 8,995, 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
The local workforce exhibits a diverse mix of professional and industrial occupations, with manufacturing and production fields heavily represented, alongside an unemployment rate of just 3.7%, according to AreaSearch aggregates of local statistical data. By March 2026, there are 6,499 employed local residents, with the jobless rate tracking 0.6% lower than the Greater Brisbane average of 4.3%, and labor force participation matching typical standards (72.7% relative to 70.4% in Greater Brisbane). Census records show a modest 9.9% of the workforce operated from home, though this figure may have been influenced by pandemic-related lockdowns.
Resident employment is heavily concentrated in social assistance & health care, construction, and retail trade. The locality shows a particularly strong concentration in manufacturing jobs, which sit at 1.7 times the metropolitan average. Conversely, professional & technical roles are underrepresented, accounting for 3.9% of workers compared to 8.9% across the region. This highly residential setting seems to present relatively few local jobs, as highlighted by comparing the number of working residents to local workplace positions. Based on AreaSearch reviews of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated from the broader area, during the 12 months leading to March 2026, the active labor force contracted by 2.8% and total employment fell by 3.1%, resulting in a 0.3 percentage point rise in the unemployment rate. This stood in contrast to Greater Brisbane, where employment grew by 3.2%, the labor force expanded by 3.4%, and unemployment ticked up by 0.1 percentage points. National forecasts released in May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia provide further context for future employment demand within Regents Park. These forecasts, spanning five and ten-year horizons, have been applied to the local industry mix 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 sector growth rates vary widely. Aligning these industry trends to the local workforce mix suggests employment for residents will grow by 6.0% over five years and 12.8% over ten years (note that this is a direct weighted extrapolation for illustration and does not incorporate local population 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 — 42 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (11,103 at the 2021 Census → 11,838 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 (SAL32417). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
