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
Tamborine Mountain has an estimated 8,495 residents, up from 8,105 at the 2021 Census — a change of 390 people, or 4.8%. Growth has averaged 0.8% a year over five years. That puts 200 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's evaluation of broader regional ABS demographic releases alongside Census post-count address validations, the suburb of Tamborine Mountain contains approximately 8,495 residents as of Aug 2026. This marks an expansion of 390 people (4.8%) compared to the 2021 Census tally of 8,105 people. Such change is calculated from an estimated resident population of 8,485 identified via the latest ABS ERP release (June 2025) plus 10 validated new addresses added since the Census. With a resulting density of 200 persons per square kilometer, the suburb of Tamborine Mountain affords considerable physical space alongside future expansion capacity.
The suburb of Tamborine Mountain's post-census increase of 4.8% trails the broader SA3 benchmark (7.2%) by only 2.4 percentage points, highlighting solid demographic momentum. Inbound international migration served as the primary contributor, accounting for roughly 52.0% of recent population additions, though natural increase and interstate arrivals also posted positive contributions. Demographic modeling applies ABS/Geoscience Australia projections published in 2024 (using 2022 as baseline) across SA2 districts. For periods following 2032 or locations outside that series, projections draw upon 2023 Queensland State Government figures anchored to 2021 numbers. Because state projections lack age bracket distributions, AreaSearch incorporates age-specific weighting aligned with ABS Greater Capital Region forecasts released in 2023 from 2022 benchmarks. Looking ahead, the suburb of Tamborine Mountain is projected to record demographic growth just beneath the non-metropolitan median, expanding by 942 persons by 2041 under aggregated SA2 projections, representing an overall expansion of 11.0% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
91 new dwellings have been approved in Tamborine Mountain over the past five years, an average of 18 a year. That places the area in the 51st percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 2 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 21 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 100% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 25, 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
ABS residential building consent figures compiled by AreaSearch indicate that Tamborine Mountain has maintained an approval pace of roughly 18 new dwellings annually, accumulating approximately 91 dwellings across the past 5 financial years. During FY-25 to date, 25 dwellings have received approval. With 3.1 new residents arriving for every dwelling constructed over the past 5 financial years (from FY-21 through FY-25), construction continues to trail incoming demand substantially, which typically intensifies buyer rivalry and upward pricing momentum. Concurrently, anticipated construction costs for new dwellings average $423,000, sitting below regional benchmarks to provide relatively attainable building opportunities.
In addition, $2.2 million in commercial building approvals have been logged during the current financial year, underlining the district's predominantly residential character. Residential building volumes in Tamborine Mountain fall noticeably below the broader Rest of Qld standard, registering 51.0% lower on a per-capita basis. While building velocity has picked up in recent periods, this constrained supply pipeline generally bolsters value and buyer interest for established dwellings. Such modest construction rates also sit below national levels, highlighting a mature market with probable planning or geographic constraints. Furthermore, all recent approvals have consisted exclusively of separate houses, reinforcing the low-density environment and appealing to buyers seeking standalone properties. The ratio of 319 residents per approved dwelling further highlights the quiet pace of local property development. Demographic forecasts point to an increase of 932 residents in Tamborine Mountain by 2041 relative to the most recent quarterly estimate from AreaSearch. If residential building activity continues at current volumes, dwelling delivery could fall short of resident inflows, thereby driving stronger buyer competition and supporting upward property valuations.

4,075 residents of Tamborine Mountain are employed, from a labour force of 4,231. Unemployment sits at 3.7%, with participation at 57.9%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.6% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 6,737, about 79% 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
Workforce analysis by AreaSearch indicates that Tamborine Mountain possesses an educated labor base with substantial concentration in essential services, a low unemployment rate of 3.7%, and an annual employment expansion of 3.1%. As of March 2026, employed residents total 4,075, while the local jobless rate sits 0.3% under the Regional Qld figure of 3.9%. However, labor force engagement remains comparatively subdued, registering at 57.9% versus 64.2% across Regional Qld. Census records show that 24.0% of local workers operated from home, though pandemic restrictions at the time should be factored into this figure.
The primary employment fields for local residents include health care & social assistance, education & training, along with accommodation & food. The workforce demonstrates an exceptionally high concentration in education & training, representing 1.5 times the regional proportion. Conversely, the mining sector accounts for merely 1.1% of working residents, well beneath the 3.6% observed across Regional Qld. Comparing resident worker counts with local workplace numbers suggests that the district is largely residential and offers limited employment positions within its own boundaries. Synthesized ABS and SALM figures from AreaSearch reveal that across the 12-month period, local employment expanded by 3.1% while the workforce grew by 2.5%, reducing the jobless rate by 0.6 percentage points. Over the same timeframe, Regional Qld experienced 0.1% employment growth, a 0.3% rise in labor force size, and a 0.1 percentage points increase in unemployment. Future labor demand in Tamborine Mountain can be assessed against Jobs and Skills Australia projections from Mar-26 across five-year and ten-year horizons. Nationally, total employment is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though individual industry trajectories vary considerably. Mapping these sector-level expectations against local industry distributions indicates an anticipated employment rise of 6.6% over five years and 13.6% over ten years (representing an illustrative weighting model 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 — 10 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (8,105 at the 2021 Census → 8,495 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.
