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
Moonah has an estimated 5,554 residents, down from 5,737 at the 2021 Census — a change of 183 people, or 3.2%. The population has thinned by an average 0.8% a year over five years, slower than 98% of areas nationally. That puts 1,991 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 the analysis by AreaSearch, the population of Moonah stands at approximately 5,554 in May 2026. This represents a decline of 183 residents (3.2%) compared to the 5,737 individuals recorded in the 2021 Census. This population shift is calculated using the June 2025 ABS estimated resident population of 5,554 alongside 53 validated new addresses identified since the Census. With these numbers, the area has a density of 1,990 persons per square kilometer, which exceeds the typical density found among national areas analyzed by AreaSearch. The primary driver of population increase in the region was overseas migration, which accounted for roughly 77.8% of the total demographic gains in recent times.
AreaSearch utilizes the 2024 population projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia, which use 2022 as their baseline. In cases where SA2 regions lack this data, or to project age group dynamics beyond 2032, projections from the Tasmania State Government released in 2022 with a 2021 baseline are applied, adjusted via weighted aggregation of growth from LGA to SA2 levels. Looking forward, the population is projected to expand at a rate slightly below the national median, increasing by 356 residents by 2041 based on the most recent annual ERP data, which translates to a total growth of 6.4% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
61 new dwellings have been approved in Moonah over the past five years, an average of 12 a year. That is 2.1 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 13, broadly in line with that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this SA2 boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Residential approvals in Moonah average approximately 12 dwellings annually, with 61 residential units approved throughout the last 5 financial years (from FY-21 to FY-25) and 12 approvals recorded so far during FY-26. Because the local population has been declining, this incoming supply has likely matched demand, providing sufficient options for prospective buyers, with new homes constructed at an average cost of $306,000. Furthermore, commercial development approvals total $11.3 million for the current financial year, indicating a moderate level of commercial construction activity. When contrasted with Greater Hobart, the level of development in Moonah is significantly lower, falling 53.0% below the regional average on a per capita basis.
This limited volume of new building activity typically sustains demand and reinforces values for existing properties. This rate is also below the nationwide average, indicating the mature status of the suburb and suggesting potential planning constraints. Detached houses make up 55.0% of recent construction, while medium and high-density dwellings account for the remaining 45.0%, with an increasing proportion of townhouses and apartments offering diverse choices across different price points, ranging from family residences to affordable compact units. This represents a notable shift from the historical housing stock, which is currently 84.0% houses, indicating a scarcity of developable land and reflecting changing lifestyle choices and affordability constraints. The region averages about 1790 people per residential approval, highlighting the established nature of the local market. Demographic projections indicate that Moonah will add 356 residents by 2041, based on the latest quarterly estimations from AreaSearch. The pace of construction remains reasonably aligned with this forecast growth, though purchasers may experience heightened competition as the population expands.

Frequently Asked Questions - Infrastructure
Northern Suburbs Transit Corridor (NSTC)
A transformative urban renewal and transport initiative under the Hobart City Deal focused on the 4km corridor between Glenorchy and New Town. The project aims to activate a disused rail corridor for a high-frequency Rapid Bus Transit (RBT) network while stimulating medium-density housing and mixed-use development. As of early 2026, the project is a priority for federal funding following the submission of a comprehensive 368-page Strategic Business Case. It seeks to integrate land-use planning with sustainable transport to improve housing affordability and reduce congestion in Hobart's northern suburbs.
Royal Hobart Showgrounds Redevelopment (Wilkinsons Point Precinct)

3,068 residents of Moonah are employed, from a labour force of 3,247. Unemployment sits at 5.5%, with participation at 69.6%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.5% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 6,895, about 124% of the resident population, so the area draws in more workers than it sends out. 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 workforce of Moonah is highly educated, featuring a strong representation in essential services, an unemployment rate of 5.5%, and an estimated employment expansion of 0.5% over the past year. In March 2026, there were 3,068 employed residents, with the unemployment rate sitting 1.1% higher than the 4.4% recorded for Greater Hobart, while the participation rate is remarkably high at 69.6% compared to the regional benchmark of 63.8%. According to Census details, a modest 7.1% of the workforce worked from home, though this figure may have been influenced by COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
The primary employment sectors for local residents are health care & social assistance, accommodation & food, and retail trade. The suburb shows a pronounced concentration in the accommodation & food sector, with employment levels reaching 1.5 times the regional average. In contrast, the construction industry is underrepresented, accounting for 7.0% of local jobs compared to the regional figure of 8.7%. Recording 1.1 workers for every resident at the time of the Census, the area acts as a major employment center, providing more jobs than it has working residents and drawing commuters from neighboring suburbs. An analysis of SALM and ABS data by AreaSearch indicates that the 12-month period experienced a 0.5% rise in employment alongside a 0.2% increase in the labor force, causing the unemployment rate to drop by 0.3 percentage points. This performance stands in contrast to Greater Hobart, where employment declined by 0.1%, the labor force grew by 0.2%, and unemployment increased by 0.3 percentage points. Future labor demand in Moonah can be understood through the national employment projections released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25. These five-year and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce structure to model potential growth. Although national employment is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the expansion rates vary widely by industry. Projecting these industry trends onto the employment profile of Moonah suggests local jobs could grow by 6.5% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, representing a basic weighted extrapolation for illustrative purposes that excludes 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 — 53 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (5,737 at the 2021 Census → 5,554 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.
