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.

Sales Detail
Maclean has an estimated 2,832 residents, up from 2,778 at the 2021 Census — a change of 54 people, or 1.9%. That puts 291 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
According to investigations of ABS population revisions for the surrounding region, alongside new address points verified by AreaSearch after the Census, the resident count for the suburb of Maclean is approximated at 2,832 in May 2026. This represents a rise of 54 people (1.9%) relative to the 2021 Census, which documented 2,778 people. The adjustment is calculated using the resident population of 2,792, calculated by AreaSearch through analysis of the latest ABS ERP release (June 2025) combined with 13 validated new addresses registered since the Census date. This population level yields a density of 291 persons per square kilometer, indicating substantial area per resident and possible capacity for future expansion.
The post-census expansion of 1.9% in the suburb of Maclean sits within 2.7 percentage points of the broader SA4 region (4.6%), showing competitive expansion characteristics. Growth in the suburb of Maclean was largely propelled by interstate migration, which accounted for roughly 72.0% of the total demographic growth over the recent period. AreaSearch incorporates projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for individual SA2 zones, published in 2024 with 2022 serving as the baseline year. For SA2 territories lacking this coverage, projections at the SA2 level from the NSW State Government published in 2022 with a 2021 baseline are implemented. Age cohort expansion rates from these datasets are likewise applied to all locations for the period 2032 to 2041. Factoring in these anticipated age shifts, population expansion in the suburb of Maclean is projected slightly below the median for regional Australia, with an expected gain of 318 persons by 2041 based on compiled SA2 projections, representing an overall rise of 9.8% across the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
Detail
Property development in the suburb of Maclean is highly restricted, with an average of 3 building approvals granted annually (amounting to 15 over the preceding five years). Such minor construction volumes are typical for rural areas where housing requirements are modest and building works are naturally constrained by local market demand and infrastructure limitations. It should be noted that with such minor approval volumes, annual percentage shifts and relative growth rates can fluctuate significantly depending on individual building projects. The suburb of Maclean exhibits far lower construction volumes than the Rest of NSW, with activity levels also tracking below nationwide averages.
Recent development has consisted solely of standalone houses, which aligns with the rural profile of the area where larger plots and open space are standard. A ratio of 1395 residents for every single residential approval underscores this quiet, low-scale development setting. Long-term forecasts indicate the suburb of Maclean will gain 278 residents by 2041 according to the most recent quarterly projections from AreaSearch. Should current construction rates persist, the supply of new dwellings might lag behind demand from population growth, which could increase competition among prospective purchasers and underpin higher property valuations.

845 residents of Maclean are employed, from a labour force of 904. Unemployment sits at 6.5%, with participation at 37.3%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.7% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 2,454, about 87% 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
The workforce of the suburb of Maclean displays a balanced mix of professional and manual roles, with key service sectors heavily represented and an unemployment rate of 6.5% based on compiled regional data from AreaSearch. In March 2026845 residents are employed, while the jobless rate is 2.4% higher than the Regional NSW rate of 4.1%, and labor market participation is notably lower at 37.3% compared to 60.6% in Regional NSW. Census records indicate that a minor 10.0% of the workforce operated from home, though the influence of COVID-19 restriction periods should be taken into account.
The primary employment fields for working residents are healthcare & social assistance, retail trade, and accommodation & food services. The suburb of Maclean shows a clear concentration in healthcare & social assistance, where the employment proportion is 1.4 times that of the regional average. By contrast, agriculture, forestry & fishing is less represented at 3.1% compared to the regional figure of 5.3%. The local area appears to provide relatively few jobs nearby, as shown by comparing the count of Census local jobs against the resident workforce. According to AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated from regional levels, the workforce shrank by 2.6% alongside a 2.1% reduction in total employment during the year ending March 2026, which resulted in a decrease in the unemployment rate by 0.5 percentage points. This diverges from Regional NSW, where employment shrank by 0.9%, the workforce fell by 0.4%, and the jobless rate climbed by 0.5 percentage points. National employment forecasts from May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia provide further context regarding future labor demand in the suburb of Maclean. These five and ten-year projections have been applied to the local workforce makeup to calculate potential expansion patterns. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the expected growth rates vary widely by industry. Applying these sectoral projections to the employment composition in the suburb of Maclean suggests local jobs should rise by 6.7% over five years and 14.1% over ten years, though this represents a basic weighted extrapolation rather than a localized population forecast.

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 — 13 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (2,778 at the 2021 Census → 2,832 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 (SAL12440). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
