Clearview

Clearview lies within the top quartile of areas nationally for population growth performance according to AreaSearch analysis of recent, and medium to long-term trends

The population of Clearview, as estimated by AreaSearch using ABS updates and validated new addresses, is around 4,482 as of November 2025. This figure represents a growth of 221 people since the 2021 Census, which reported a population of 4,261. The increase is inferred from an estimated resident population of 4,432 based on AreaSearch's examination of the latest ERP data release by the ABS in June 2024, along with an additional 12 validated new addresses since the Census date. This results in a population density ratio of 2,636 persons per square kilometer, placing Clearview in the upper quartile compared to other locations assessed by AreaSearch nationwide. Over the past decade, ending in June 2024, Clearview has demonstrated consistent growth patterns with a compound annual growth rate of 1.9%, outperforming its SA4 region. The primary driver for population growth was overseas migration, contributing approximately 80% of overall population gains during recent periods.

AreaSearch adopts ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 area, released in 2024 with a base year of 2022. For areas not covered by this data and years post-2032, the SA State Government's Regional/LGA projections by age category are used, based on 2021 data and released in 2023. These projections have been adjusted employing a method of weighted aggregation of population growth from LGA to SA2 levels. Looking ahead, Clearview is projected to experience above median population growth compared to national areas. Based on aggregated SA2-level projections, the suburb is expected to grow by 1,132 persons by 2041, reflecting an overall increase of 28.6% over the 17-year period.

AreaSearch assessment of residential approval activity sees Clearview among the top 30% of areas assessed nationwide

AreaSearch analysis of ABS building approval numbers shows Clearview has received around 22 dwelling approvals annually over the past five financial years, totalling an estimated 113 homes. So far in FY26, six approvals have been recorded. On average, 3.9 people moved to the area per year for each dwelling built between FY21 and FY25, indicating demand significantly exceeds supply. New dwellings are developed at an average cost of $351,000.

This financial year, $13.2 million in commercial development approvals have been recorded. Compared to Greater Adelaide, Clearview has around two-thirds the rate of new dwelling approvals per person and ranks among the 69th percentile nationally. New development consists of 73.0% standalone homes and 27.0% townhouses or apartments, preserving the area's suburban nature with a focus on detached housing attracting space-seeking buyers.

The location has approximately 191 people per dwelling approval, indicating a low density market. According to AreaSearch's latest quarterly estimate, Clearview is expected to grow by 1,283 residents through to 2041. If current construction levels persist, housing supply could lag population growth, potentially intensifying buyer competition and underpinning price growth.

AreaSearch analysis places Clearview well above average for employment performance across multiple indicators

Clearview's workforce is well-educated with significant representation from essential services sectors. The unemployment rate in Clearview was 2.5% as of June 2025, compared to Greater Adelaide's 4.0%.

Employment growth over the past year was estimated at 1.8%, based on AreaSearch aggregation of statistical area data. As of June 2025, 2,460 residents were employed with a participation rate of 65.4%, slightly higher than Greater Adelaide's 61.7%. The dominant employment sectors are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction. Clearview shows strong specialization in transport, postal & warehousing, with an employment share 1.4 times the regional level.

However, education & training is under-represented at 7.5% compared to Greater Adelaide's 9.3%. The area appears to offer limited local employment opportunities based on Census working population vs resident population data. Over the 12 months to June 2025, employment increased by 1.8%, labour force by 1.4%, and unemployment fell by 0.3 percentage points in Clearview. In comparison, Greater Adelaide saw employment grow by 2.1% and labour force expand by 2.1%, with a marginal rise in unemployment. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia (Sep-22) project growth of 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years. Applying these projections to Clearview's employment mix suggests local employment should increase by 6.5% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, though this is a simple weighting extrapolation for illustrative purposes only.
