Tweed is one of the 453 council areas we track on the Australian property clock. This page is the plain-numbers read: where it sits in the cycle, who lives there, what's being built, and the suburbs inside it.

The people

Who lives in Tweed.

Population · ABS estimates

People (2025)

+0.9%

Growth per year, last 5 years

Steady growth. Not a boom town, not going backwards.

Households · Census 2021

Median age

$1,296

Median household income per week

72% own or are paying off their home, 24% rent. An owner-occupier market at heart, which tends to steady prices through the cycle.

New supply

What's being approved to build.

Building approvals are tomorrow's supply. A market where approvals are falling while population grows is a market where pressure builds. The reverse deserves caution.

Dwellings approved · ABS

FY24
213
FY25
287
FY26
411

181 of the latest year's approvals were houses. Approvals are trending up: more supply is coming.

Jobs and investment

Who's working, and what's being spent.

Jobs pay mortgages and rents. Government and commercial building spend is where future jobs come from: schools, hospitals, shops and factories all get approved before they get built.

Jobs · SALM, March 2026

Employed residents

Unemployment (national 4.2%)

2,331 more residents are in work than five years ago (+5.4%). Steady jobs growth, in line with a healthy regional economy.

Want the full workup on Tweed?

This page is the public data. The full report is the licensed feed: 10 years of prices, rents and vacancy over time, days on market, demand, and the supply pipeline, for Tweed or any suburb in it. Same data we run for clients. I pull it and email it through, usually within a business day. No charge, and no 14-part email sequence after it.

General information only, not financial or investment advice. Cycle positions and projections are modelled LGA-level figures to July 2026 (licensed market analytics). Population and approvals are ABS estimates; employment is SALM smoothed data; income, age and tenure are Census 2021. None of it can see street quality, flood maps, zoning or the contract, which is where deals are actually won and lost. Get advice on your own situation before acting.

Data finds the area. It doesn't buy the house.

We narrow 15,000 suburbs to the top 5 for each client, then find the street and the property. If Tweed is on your list, that's a conversation worth having early.
