Populations are counted and estimated in various ways. The most comprehensive population count available in Australia is derived from the Census of Population and Housing conducted by the Australian Bureau of Statistics every five years. However the Census count is NOT the official population of Isaac Regional Council. To provide a more accurate population figure which is updated more frequently than every five years, the Australian Bureau of Statistics also produces "Estimated Resident Population" (ERP) numbers for Isaac Regional Council. See data notes for a detailed explanation of different population types, how they are calculated and when to use each one.

Gradual growth took place during the late 1800s and early 1900s. Rapid development took place in several townships from the late 1960s into the 1980s, spurred by expanded coal mining and improved access. The population of the Region increased from about 3,000 in 1947 to about 21,000 in 1986. The population declined during the 1990s, falling from about 22,000 in 1991 to about 19,000 in 2001, largely a result of restructuring and downsizing in the mining industry. The population then increased significantly to 24,000 in 2006, as mining expanded again. Rapid growth took place from 2006, with the population reaching nearly 34,000 in 2011. Population growth is expected to continue, particularly in and around Moranbah. Land use Land use The Isaac Region is predominantly rural, with growing residential and rural-residential areas in several townships. The Region includes the township of Moranbah, the smaller townships of Clermont, Dysart, Glenden, Middlemount and Nebo, and the villages of Carmila, Clairview, Coppabella and St Lawrence. The Region encompasses a total land area of about 59,000 square kilometres, including islands, coastal areas, inland areas, national parks and bushland. Rural land is used largely for sugar cane, crop and grain growing, cattle grazing and coal mining. Transport The Isaac Region is served by the Bruce Highway, the Gregory Highway, the Peak Downs Highway, Gregory Development Road, Oxford Downs Sarina Road, the North Coast (Brisbane-Cairns) railway line and Moranbah Airport.

Page 8 of 81 Five year age groups The Age Structure of Isaac Regional Council provides key insights into the level of demand for age based services and facilities such as child care. It is also an indicator of Isaac Regional Council's residential role and function and how it is likely to change in the future. Five year age groups present a classic age profile of the population. Each age group covers exactly five years, which enables direct comparison between each group. To get a more complete picture Isaac Regional Council's Age Structure should be viewed in conjunction with Household Types and Dwelling Types.
