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
Yarrabilba has an estimated 14,181 residents, up from 10,240 at the 2021 Census — a change of 3,941 people, or 38.5%. Growth has averaged 6.4% a year over five years, faster than 96% of areas nationally. 925 new addresses have been validated here since Census night. Interstate and internal migration accounts for 74.0% of that increase. That puts 1,101 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 evaluations combining ABS demographic revisions and validated new addresses recorded since the Census, the suburb of Yarrabilba has an estimated population of approximately 14,181 as of Aug 2026. This indicates an expansion of 3,941 people (38.5%) relative to the 2021 Census tally of 10,240 people. Such growth is deduced from an AreaSearch estimated resident population of 13,241 following the ABS June 2025 ERP release, coupled with 925 validated new addresses identified post-Census. Consequently, the suburb of Yarrabilba records a population density of 1,101 persons per square kilometer, aligning closely with broader benchmarks tracked by AreaSearch.
Outperforming both Queensland and the nationwide mark of 9.5%, the suburb of Yarrabilba saw a 38.5% post-2021 census surge that establishes it as a regional growth frontrunner. Net interstate migration served as the primary growth catalyst, generating roughly 74.0% of all population additions over recent timeframes, alongside positive contributions from overseas arrivals and natural increase. For individual SA2 locations, AreaSearch integrates 2024 ABS/Geoscience Australia modeling benchmarked against 2022. For years post-2032 or locations outside that scope, 2023 Queensland State Government SA2 projections based on 2021 metrics are incorporated. Because state-level figures omit age group breakdowns, AreaSearch applies proportional distributions from the 2023 ABS Greater Capital Region projections (using 2022 data) across relevant cohorts. Looking ahead, the suburb of Yarrabilba is positioned within the top 10 percent of AreaSearch-monitored territories for future expansion, with aggregated SA2 figures projecting a gain of 8,130 persons by 2041, representing a cumulative 50.7% rise across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
515 new dwellings have been approved in Yarrabilba over the past five years, an average of 103 a year. That places the area in the 99th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 7 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 121 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 93% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 222, 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 approval figures aggregated across statistical zones indicate Yarrabilba averages roughly 103 residential building consents annually, totaling approximately 515 approved homes throughout the prior 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) alongside 222 approved to date in FY-25. An influx of 5.9 new residents per year for each dwelling built over the past 5 financial years (between FY-21 and FY-25) shows that local housing demand considerably outpaces development, heightening purchaser competition and exerting upward pricing pressure, while newly built dwellings carry an average construction value of $424,000. Additionally, non-residential investment remains moderate, with $11.5 million in commercial approvals lodged during the current financial year.
Per-capita building volumes in Yarrabilba trail Greater Brisbane significantly, sitting 58.0% below regional average per person. Although recent building activity has gained momentum, this limited new residential delivery generally bolsters pricing and demand across the established market. Detached houses account for 93.0% of recent construction while 7.0% represents attached dwellings, preserving the suburban character of the area with spacious family residences. Recording roughly 60 people per dwelling approval, Yarrabilba continues to exhibit hallmarks of an expanding growth hub. Based on the most recent AreaSearch quarterly release, demographic projections estimate Yarrabilba will expand by 7,190 residents by 2041. If residential building activity stays at its current pace, additions to housing stock may fall short of population gains, compounding buyer competition and reinforcing upward pressure on dwelling prices.

5,660 residents of Yarrabilba are employed, from a labour force of 6,070. Unemployment sits at 6.8%, with participation at 67.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.2% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth, so in an area growing as fast as this one it understates the likely rise in local jobs. The working-day population is estimated at 11,513, about 81% 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
Yarrabilba maintains a mixed employment base of blue-collar and white-collar roles, highlighted by substantial concentration in construction and an overall unemployment rate of 6.8%, according to AreaSearch statistical aggregations. By March 2026, employed residents numbered 5,660, with the local jobless rate sitting 2.4% above Greater Brisbane's 4.3% benchmark, alongside a labor force participation rate of 67.4% that trails Greater Brisbane's 70.1%. Furthermore, Census records show only 9.0% of workers working from home, though pandemic-related movement restrictions should be taken into account. The leading industries employing local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction.
Construction representation is especially prominent, recording a local concentration 1.4 times the regional level. Conversely, professional & technical roles are under-indexed, engaging just 3.7% of Yarrabilba's workforce against 8.9% throughout Greater Brisbane. Comparing resident workers against the local Census working population indicates a constrained volume of employment within the immediate area. AreaSearch evaluations of ABS and SALM statistical data show that over the twelve months to March 2026, the local labor pool contracted by 6.7% and total employment dropped by 8.1%, driving a 1.4 percentage points increase in the jobless rate. In contrast, Greater Brisbane saw employment lift by 3.2%, labor supply grow by 3.4%, and unemployment edge up 0.1 percentage points. Additional context on future workforce requirements is provided by Jobs and Skills Australia national projections from Mar-26. These five- and ten-year models, applied to the local workforce composition, estimate future industry trends. Nationally, jobs are projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with performance varying by sector. Mapping these industry rates onto Yarrabilba's employment baseline suggests local jobs could grow by 6.2% over five years and 13.0% over ten years (noting this is an illustrative weighting model that does not incorporate local 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 — 925 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (10,240 at the 2021 Census → 14,181 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.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (SAL33208). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
