Past price growth (1, 3, 5, 10 years) by mesh block (by suburb)

GET/v1/suburbs/{suburb_name}/market/growth-map30¢ per call

Past price growth over 1, 3, 5 and 10 years for every microburb (mesh block) in the suburb, in percent — cumulative over each horizon. Houses, or units where the block has no house figure. Values only; polygons come from /shapes/mesh-blocks.

Exact suburb identifier required. Exact ABS Suburb and Locality (SAL) name, e.g. Burwood (NSW) — many suburbs carry a state suffix. If starting from free text or an unverified bare name, first call GET /v1/geocode/suburb?q=<text>, then use the exact data[].area_name it returns. Suburb data endpoints do not guess a state or typo-correct names.

Price: 30¢ per call.
