Clyde North: what changed since the 2021 Census
9,904 homes at the last Census. 18,455 addresses today. +50% against the national rate, and the Census map redrawn around it.
By Luke Metcalfe, Founder & Chief Data Scientist, 15+ years in property data analytics · September 2026In 2021 the Bureau of Statistics counted four homes and four people across 2.8 square kilometres of Clyde North and gave the lot one Census area code. Five years later that ground holds 2,232 properties and the Bureau has cut it into 43 separate areas. This page shows it happening.

For developers: the same answer as a request
Everything on this page comes from data built for the Microburbs API. The API already resolves any address and returns its mesh block today. Three Census requests are specified and being built on top of it; they are not live yet, and this page will say so until they are. Access and plans are on the API access page.
| Request, coming | What it will answer |
|---|---|
GET /v1/census/resolve?gnaf_pid=GAVIC720355173 | Which Census area this address is in, for 2021 and for 2026, and whether it changed. |
GET /v1/census/lineage?mesh_block_2021=21327400000 | What an old area became, with the ABS's own population-weighted shares. This one returns 43 rows. |
GET /v1/census/releases | Which Census data exists today and which is still to come, with dates. |
