Suburb profile

Strathpine is a well-connected established suburb in Moreton Bay Council with everyday amenities close at hand. Connections to the wider metro area are straightforward, with neighbouring communities close at hand. Residents are mostly families and working professionals, with plenty of young families in the mix.

Local shops and services are well covered, which makes the suburb easy to live in day to day. Green space punches above what many metro suburbs offer, with parks and playgrounds woven through the suburb. Most routine trips are on foot, while buses and trains cover longer journeys across the metro area.

Homes cost more here than in most comparable suburbs. The area is still finding its shape, with new households arriving and the community evolving year by year.

Against similar metro suburbs, local dining and lifestyle amenities, plus schools and education stand out and the overall desirability rating is excellent, with community and employment less decisive.

ABS Estimated Resident Population allocated to this suburb from SA2-level data. Not an official ABS suburb count.

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 (~13,100), extrapolated at +2.0% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.

IRSD decile (2021)

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.
