The Redistribution Commission may also consider projected district enrolments, with an aim for districts to also be within % of the average projected district enrolment of in 2032 (ie. between and ).

The ABS divides Brisbane into 136 named Statistical Areas Level 2 (SA2s) which are divided into 2,916 Statistical Areas Level 1 (SA1s). These are the building blocks used to create electoral districts.
