The Bureau of Communications, Arts and Regional Research (BCARR) has undertaken a South East Queensland (SEQ) research project to provide an evidence base on the spatial distribution of population growth, jobs, connectivity and liveability of SEQ. This evidence base can be used to monitor how population, jobs, connectivity and liveability change over time and respond to investment. The report aims to support the Department’s policy and project delivery.

This chart pack provides a summary of population, employment, housing and liveability trends for our cities and regions. Key findings include:

• The population in capital cities is expected to grow more rapidly than regional Australia over the next 12 years
• Service industries will drive employment growth both in capital cities and regional Australia over the five years to November 2025.
• Inner regional, Outer regional and Remote areas experienced strong growth in their dwelling approvals from 2016 to 2021.
• Capital cities have better access to health and education services and greater walkability.
