The age distribution of the suburb is skewed towards a slightly younger population at present, with recent data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics listing the median age of residents as 35 years. Of the approximate 30,000 residents, children aged 0-14 comprise 24.3%, while young people aged 15-29 account for 18.8% of the population.
