How have migration patterns changed in Noosa? Migration by location statistics are available by local government area, which can tell us a bit about where new Noosa migrants are coming from within Australia and where Noosa residents are migrating to, within Australia. Overall, Noosa Shire remains a destination for families, mature adults, early retirees and empty nesters and retirees. Noosa Shire is widely known as an attractive destination. It brings in new residents not just from within Queensland’s larger LGAs, but also from within inner Melbourne and Sydney and some outer capital city LGAs, such as Northern Beaches in New South Wales and Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, where older residents tend to come from. As with most regional areas, young adults tend to leave once they reach the age of 18-24 years in search of education or employment elsewhere. As Noosa Shire is close to some large population centres such as Sunshine Coast, Moreton Bay and further south – Greater Brisbane and the Gold Coast, the pull factors for young adults are strong in Noosa Shire.
