Suburb profile
Beaudesert is a hillside mid-sized suburb in Scenic Rim Council, with elevated streets and a greener, quieter pace. The community is self-contained in the best sense. Local life comes first, with the region opening up beyond. Long-term locals and family households define much of the community, with plenty of young families in the mix.
A practical retail strip keeps errands local: groceries and daily services without a long trip. Outdoor life is easy here, with generous parks and room for kids, dogs and weekend strolls. Most routine trips are on foot, while buses cover longer journeys across the metro area.
Housing is more affordable than in many parts of the state. This is a mature, settled pocket where the existing streetscape still defines the local character.
Local dining and lifestyle amenities, plus schools and education push the suburb to a good desirability read, even as community and employment look more ordinary among similar regional towns.

Methodology
Figures are allocated from ABS Estimated Resident Population at Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2), using 2021 Census share within overlapping SA2 regions. Where Census data is unavailable, area overlap is used instead.
The dashed chart line is a simple growth-trend estimate to June 2030 (~8,500), extrapolated at +1.9% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.

ABS Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA), 2021 release — the latest available, derived from the 2021 Census. Deciles rank suburbs nationally from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).
What do IRSAD and IRSD measure?
IRSAD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. Combines indicators of advantage (e.g. high income, skilled occupations) and disadvantage. Higher decile = more advantaged relative to other Australian areas.
IRSD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage. Focuses on disadvantage only (e.g. low income, unemployment, limited education). Higher decile = less disadvantage nationally.
A new SEIFA edition typically follows each census; the ABS has not announced a release date beyond 2021.
