Migration & Movement in Burleigh
How people move — recent moves within Australia and arrivals from overseas.
Much higher rates of recent movement than most similar areas define Burleigh, where nearly half of all residents have changed homes lately. While a large number of people have moved in recently, the share of new arrivals from overseas has dropped sharply over the last decade.

People who moved in the last five years.
About 45.1% of people here moved house in the last five years, which is well above the national figure of 40.7%. This is a drop of 10 percentage points since 2011, though it remains about the same as the Queensland average.
Arrivals from overseas
Overseas-born residents who arrived recently.
Recent arrivals from overseas make up 11.8% of the population, a figure that is a little below both the state and national averages. This represents a significant decline from 2011, when the share of new overseas arrivals was 24.9%.
