Sales Detail
Yarrabah has an estimated 2,669 residents, up from 2,505 at the 2021 Census — a change of 164 people, or 6.5%. Growth has averaged 0.5% a year over five years. Natural increase accounts for 98.0% of that increase. Density is about 17 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 AreaSearch's evaluation of broader regional ABS demographic updates alongside validated post-Census address additions, the suburb of Yarrabah has an estimated headcount of roughly 2,669 as of Aug 2026. Relative to the 2,505 residents recorded in the 2021 Census, this demonstrates an expansion of 164 people (6.5%). This calculation relies on the 2,669 resident estimate derived following the ABS release of June 2025 ERP figures and subsequent address validations. Consequently, the suburb of Yarrabah maintains a population density of 16.8 persons per square kilometer, ensuring considerable personal space. Outperforming the wider SA3 area benchmark of 5.8%, the suburb of Yarrabah's 6.5% post-2021 census surge highlights its regional growth leadership, with natural increase generating approximately 98.0% of recent population additions.
Demographic modeling incorporates ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 projections published in 2024 using 2022 as a starting point, supplemented by 2023 Queensland State Government projections based on 2021 figures for subsequent years past 2032 or unlisted localities. Because state releases omit age-specific breakdowns, AreaSearch applies cohort weightings aligned with 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections based on 2022 benchmarks. Forward-looking aggregated SA2 projections place the suburb of Yarrabah among the upper quartile of regional Australian communities for demographic expansion, anticipating a gain of 653 persons by 2041, which represents an overall growth rate of 24.5% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
48 new dwellings have been approved in Yarrabah over the past five years, an average of 9 a year. That is 6.0 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 31, 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
An evaluation of ABS building approval figures by AreaSearch indicates that Yarrabah averages roughly 9 residential development approvals each year, totaling an estimated 48 dwellings across the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), with 31 approvals recorded during FY-25 to date. Over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25), an average of only 0.8 incoming residents per approved home suggests residential construction is comfortably matching or surpassing local requirements, giving buyers substantial variety and providing headroom for expansion beyond anticipated levels. Meanwhile, the anticipated construction cost for new dwellings averages $494,000, aligning with regional standards.
Per-capita residential approvals in Yarrabah sit moderately above the broader region, exceeding the Rest of Qld 5 year period benchmark by 35.0%, which preserves buyer choice while reinforcing established asset values. Detached houses account for 93.0% of recent building activity compared to 7.0% for medium and high-density formats, reinforcing the low-density character sought by space-oriented buyers. This emphasis on standalone homes outpaces the Census proportion of 71.0%, demonstrating sustained interest in family-sized properties despite broader trends toward densification. Overall, recording around 74 people per dwelling approval reflects the attributes of an expanding residential market. According to the most recent quarterly estimate from AreaSearch, demographic projections show Yarrabah adding 653 residents by 2041. While ongoing residential development continues to align reasonably well with this forward demand, prospective purchasers could encounter heightened competition as population numbers rise.

178 residents of Yarrabah are employed, from a labour force of 699. Unemployment sits at 74.5%, with participation at 36.7%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Yarrabah maintains an occupational distribution spanning blue and white collar roles, marked by strong representation across essential services alongside a 74.5% unemployment rate derived from AreaSearch statistical area datasets. As of March 2026178 residents are employed, yet the jobless rate sits 70.6% above the 3.9% recorded for Regional Qld, pointing to substantial capacity for improvement, while the local participation rate of 36.7% falls well short of the 64.2% regional benchmark. Census records also show that a modest 3.0% of workers operated from home, though pandemic containment measures should be kept in mind.
Key employment sectors for the local workforce comprise health care & social assistance, public administration & safety, as well as education & training. The community exhibits a distinctive concentration within public administration & safety, generating employment at 4.9 times the regional average. By comparison, retail trade accounts for a smaller footprint of 1.8%, relative to the wider regional level of 10.0%. A comparison between resident workers and the local Census working population indicates a constrained volume of local workplace opportunities. AreaSearch analysis of combined ABS and SALM statistical area figures shows that over a 12-month period, the local workforce contracted by 2.1% while employment fell by 56.5%, driving an unemployment rate increase of 31.8 percentage points. In contrast, Regional Qld experienced a 0.1% rise in employment, a 0.3% increase in the labour force, and a jobless rate uptick of 0.1 percentage points. Looking ahead, national projections released by Jobs and Skills Australia in Mar-26 provide context on workforce trajectories across five and ten-year horizons. Across the nation, employment is modeled to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though individual industry trajectories vary. Weighting these sectoral projections against Yarrabah's industry profile suggests potential local employment expansion of 7.9% over five years and 16.4% over ten years (note that this represents a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not incorporate localized demographic 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. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (2,505 at the 2021 Census → 2,669 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.
