This analysis uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, which can materially differ from Statistical Areas (SA2) even when sharing the same name.
SAL boundaries are defined by Australia Post and the Australian Bureau of Statistics to represent commonly-known suburb names used in postal addresses.
Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census data collection and may combine multiple suburbs or use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Clayfield has an estimated 11,887 residents, up from 10,897 at the 2021 Census — a change of 990 people, or 9.1%. Growth has averaged 1.2% a year over five years. Overseas migration accounts for 84.0% of that increase. That puts 4,245 residents on each square kilometre. Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.
Detail
Analyzing population updates from the ABS alongside address records validated by AreaSearch since the Census shows that the suburb of Clayfield has a population of approximately 11,887 in May 2026. This represents an increase of 990 people (9.1%) since the 2021 Census, which recorded 10,897 people. The calculation is based on the resident population of 11,887, determined by AreaSearch from the ABS June 2025 ERP release and an additional 38 validated new addresses since the Census. This count indicates a density of 4,245 persons per square kilometer, placing the suburb of Clayfield in the top 10% of Australian areas evaluated by AreaSearch, highlighting strong demand for local land.
The suburb of Clayfield's 9.1% growth since the census is within 0.2 percentage points of the national average (9.3%), indicating solid growth performance. The main driver of this expansion was overseas migration, which accounted for approximately 84.0% of the overall population gains recently. Projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia released in 2024 with a 2022 base year are used by AreaSearch for each SA2 region. For locations lacking this data or for periods after 2032, projections from the Queensland State Government released in 2023 and based on 2021 data are utilized instead. Because these state-level figures do not include age breakdowns, AreaSearch distributes growth across age brackets using proportional weightings from the ABS Greater Capital Region projections released in 2023 and based on 2022 data. Demographic trends indicate that the suburb of Clayfield will experience population growth slightly below the national median, with projections suggesting an increase of 651 residents by 2041, representing a total growth rate of 5.5% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
105 new dwellings have been approved in Clayfield over the past five years, an average of 21 a year. That is 1.9 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 37, running ahead of that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this Suburb (SAL) boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
ABS building approval statistics compiled by AreaSearch indicate that Clayfield averages roughly 21 dwelling approvals annually, resulting in approximately 105 total homes approved over the last 5 financial years. In the current financial year of FY-26, 34 approvals have been registered so far. With an average of 6.3 new residents entering the area for every home built between FY-21 and FY-25, demand remains well ahead of supply, typically generating upward pressure on prices and heightening buyer competition. Newly constructed homes average $847,000 in value, pointing to a focus by developers on upmarket, premium properties.
Meanwhile, commercial approvals stand at $4.5 million this financial year, showing a quiet commercial construction sector. Clayfield displays a low level of residential construction, tracking 73.0% below the Greater Brisbane per capita average. This undersupply of new housing options typically bolsters demand and values for established residences. The building activity also tracks below the national average, reflecting the mature nature of the locality and potential planning restrictions. Recent projects consist of 65.0% separate houses and 35.0% semi-detached or multi-unit dwellings, presenting a broader range of medium-density choices that span various price levels, from conventional family residences to compact options. Interestingly, the proportion of separate houses under construction is higher than the share recorded at the Census (38.0%), demonstrating that family homes remain highly sought after despite density trends. With roughly 716 residents for every approved dwelling, the market is highly mature. Forecasts show that Clayfield's population will grow by 651 individuals up to 2041, starting from the most recent quarterly estimate by AreaSearch. Residential construction is keeping up reasonably well with this projected growth, though purchasing properties may become more competitive as the population expands.

7,428 residents of Clayfield are employed, from a labour force of 7,754. Unemployment sits at 4.2%, with participation at 76.3%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 7.2% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 9,271, about 78% of the resident population, so more people leave the area for work than travel in. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Clayfield features a highly qualified labor force with a notable share of professionals, an unemployment rate of 4.2%, and an annual employment growth rate of 0.8%, according to AreaSearch data compiled for the region. As of March 2026, 7,428 residents are employed. The unemployment rate is 0.1% lower than the Greater Brisbane average of 4.3%, while the participation rate is exceptionally high at 76.3% compared to Greater Brisbane's 70.4%. Census figures show that 26.6% of working residents operated from home, though this may reflect the influence of pandemic restrictions. Local workers are mostly employed in professional & technical services, health care & social assistance, and retail trade.
The concentration of professional & technical workers is particularly high, reaching 1.6 times the regional benchmark. Conversely, construction workers are under-represented, making up only 5.2% of the local workforce compared to 9.0% across Greater Brisbane. The discrepancy between the local working population and resident numbers suggests this highly residential suburb offers relatively few local jobs. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics for the year ending March 2026, local employment grew by 0.8% and the labor force expanded by 2.2%, leading to a 1.3 percentage point increase in the unemployment rate. Over the same period, Greater Brisbane recorded employment growth of 3.2% and labor force growth of 3.4%, with the unemployment rate rising by 0.1 percentage points. National forecasts released by Jobs and Skills Australia in May-25 provide a benchmark for future demand, which has been mapped against local employment patterns to project future trends. Nationwide employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, with performance varying by sector. Applying these national industry trends to the local employment structure indicates that Clayfield's employment base could expand by 7.2% over five years and 14.6% over ten years, though this is a simple weighted extrapolation that does not account for localized population changes.

How the numbers are built
Population
The Census provides the small-area baseline, aggregated from mesh blocks to this boundary. It is then re-based to the ABS Estimated Resident Population (June 2025 release), and new dwellings built since Census night are counted from address data — 38 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (10,897 at the 2021 Census → 11,887 now). Annual growth rates are compound (CAGR), not simple averages.
Age profile
Cohort shares are not raw Census counts. Every cohort is held as a pair — the Census baseline and a current estimate — and the split is re-based using ERP and state population projections, current to May 2026. Median age is the Census median plus modelled change since. Charts that show both are labelled "2021 Census vs Current Estimate".
Property sales
Sourced from the state valuation authority's sales register — current, not Census, and refreshed weekly. Medians are calculated from settled transactions in the period shown; periods with very low transaction counts are flagged or suppressed, because a handful of sales can move a median substantially.
Rents
Derived from state rental bond lodgement data, by dwelling type and bedroom count. Bonds are lodged at the start of a new tenancy, so this reflects new lettings, not the whole rented stock.
Development & infrastructure
Building approvals come from current ABS releases; development applications are collected from council and state planning portals; the infrastructure pipeline is compiled from Infrastructure Australia and local government sources. Applications are matched to this boundary by address or coordinates, so very recent lodgements may not yet appear.
Employment & income
Industry and occupation structure comes from the Census, but the headline labour-market indicators do not. Unemployment and labour force are derived from ABS Small Area Labour Markets (quarterly). The employment outlook applies Department of Employment forecasts for all 19 industry divisions to this area's own industry mix (the agency is now Jobs and Skills Australia), as does the Internet Vacancy Index used for job demand. Because it is weighted on industry composition alone, that outlook carries no allowance for local population growth — in fast-growing areas the real rise in local jobs will typically be higher. Income combines Census household income with ATO taxable-income statistics for FY 2023, indexed forward using the Wage Price Index.
Education, transport & amenities
School enrolments, ICSEA and performance come from ACARA's current release, not the Census. Public transport stops and service frequency are derived from GTFS timetable feeds published by state transport departments. Services and amenities are proximity and count scores built from provider directories, refreshed on their own cycle. The Census contributes only the travel-to-work and qualification measures.
Rankings and benchmarks. Where we rank this area, the comparison set is every area of the same boundary type — suburbs against suburbs, SA2s against SA2s. Benchmarks compare this area against its greater capital city region and the national figure for the same measure and period.
Limits worth knowing. Small areas carry larger error margins, and the ABS introduces small random adjustments to Census counts to protect confidentiality — so totals may not sum exactly. Estimates re-based from regional data describe the area's expected trajectory, not a direct count of it. Figures are indicative for research and are not financial, planning or valuation advice.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (SAL30617). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
