Chart Color Schemes
This analysis uses ABS Statistical Areas Level 2 (SA2) boundaries, which can materially differ from Suburbs and Localities (SAL) even when sharing similar names.
SA2 boundaries are defined by the Australian Bureau of Statistics and are designed to represent communities for statistical reporting (e.g., census and ERP).
Suburbs and Localities (SAL) represent commonly-used suburb/locality names (postal-style areas) and may use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Sales Detail
Lindisfarne - Rose Bay has an estimated 7,833 residents. That puts 979 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 demographic findings from AreaSearch, the resident count in Lindisfarne - Rose Bay stands at approximately 7,833 as of Aug 2026. This represents a net addition of 3 people (0.0%) compared to the 7,830 people recorded in the 2021 Census. These updated metrics incorporate ABS estimated resident population figures of 7,804 as of June 2025 alongside 87 validated new addresses registered following the Census. Consequently, local population density sits at 979 persons per square kilometer, tracking closely with broader benchmarks evaluated across AreaSearch territories. Inbound overseas migration served as the principal demographic driver, accounting for roughly 65.2% of recent overall population additions.
Demographic modeling relies on ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2-level projections released in 2024 (using 2022 as the base year), supplemented where needed and for post-2032 age segment estimates by the Tasmania State Government's Regional/LGA projections published in 2022 (with a 2021 base year) converted via weighted aggregation from LGA to SA2 geographies. Over the 16 years running to 2041, Lindisfarne - Rose Bay is projected to track slightly below the national median rate of demographic expansion, adding 692 persons relative to the latest annual ERP baseline, which constitutes an aggregate rise of 8.5%.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
49 new dwellings have been approved in Lindisfarne - Rose Bay over the past five years, an average of 9 a year. That is 1.3 approvals per 1,000 residents. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Residential building approvals across Lindisfarne - Rose Bay have tracked at approximately 9 new homes annually, accumulating to 49 homes across the preceding 5 financial years. In the context of recent population contraction, this level of building activity provides sufficient additions to assist prospective purchasers. Construction value for newly approved dwellings averages $480,000, which sits moderately above regional averages and highlights a focus on superior build standards. Furthermore, non-residential construction remains limited, with $200,000 in commercial approvals lodged in the current financial year reinforcing the suburb's quiet residential focus. New residential building in Lindisfarne - Rose Bay remains subdued, trailing the wider regional pace by 76.0% below regional average per person compared to Greater Hobart.
This constrained pipeline of dwelling additions generally bolsters demand and price performance across established housing stock. Dwelling creation also falls short of national benchmarks, highlighting an established urban footprint and potential town planning constraints. All recent approvals have been for standalone houses, sustaining the low-density suburban landscape and catering to buyers seeking independent properties. With approximately 956 people per approval, the locality displays the hallmarks of a fully developed community. According to long-term projections based on the latest AreaSearch quarterly estimate, Lindisfarne - Rose Bay is expected to expand by 663 residents through to 2041. Should building additions persist at prevailing rates, new residential supply could fall behind demographic demand, compounding purchasing competition and placing upward pressure on local real estate values.

3,766 residents of Lindisfarne - Rose Bay are employed, from a labour force of 3,846. Unemployment sits at 2.1%, with participation at 57.2%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.7% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 6,719, about 86% 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 labour profile in Lindisfarne - Rose Bay is defined by high qualifications and solid representation across essential services, underpinned by an unemployment rate of only 2.1% and steady overall workforce numbers over the past twelve months. By March 2026, employed locals numbered 3,766, with local unemployment sitting 2.3% below Greater Hobart's rate of 4.4%. Conversely, the local participation rate of 57.2% remains considerably lower than the 63.7% recorded across Greater Hobart. Census figures indicate that only 8.3% of workers operated primarily from home, though these figures were influenced by prevailing Covid-19 restrictions.
Key employment sectors for local residents comprise health care & social assistance, public administration & safety, as well as education & training. Local concentration in public administration & safety is particularly pronounced, registering an employment share 1.2 times the regional level. Conversely, building trades are comparatively underrepresented, making up only 7.6% of local employment relative to 8.7% across Greater Hobart. As demonstrated by the divergence between locally based workers and resident employees, this largely residential district provides a relatively modest volume of commercial jobs within its own boundaries. AreaSearch assessment of combined SALM and ABS datasets reveals that across the twelve months leading to March 2026, resident employment expanded by 0.4% and the total workforce grew by 0.2%, prompting a 0.2 percentage points decrease in the unemployment rate. This performance outperformed Greater Hobart, which recorded a 0.1% decline in employment, a 0.2% increase in the labour pool, and a 0.3 percentage points rise in joblessness. Looking ahead, Jobs and Skills Australia national forecasts from Mar-26 indicate nationwide employment expansion of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though trajectories diverge by sector. Applying these industry growth profiles directly to the local workforce makeup suggests area employment could increase by 6.7% over five years and 13.8% over ten years (noting this is a baseline extrapolation for illustration that excludes specific local demographic shifts).

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 — 87 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (7,830 at the 2021 Census → 7,833 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 (601021008). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
