Suburb profile
In Campbelltown Council, Claymore is a settled mid-sized suburb with a familiar suburban feel and good links to the wider city. The community skews younger, with a strong presence of young families throughout. This is a strongly multicultural suburb: overseas-born and multilingual households make up much of the community.
Dining is thinner on the ground than in busier metro pockets, so many residents head to neighbouring suburbs for a night out. Pocket parks and green corners give residents room to get outside without leaving the neighbourhood. Reasonably walkable — many errands reachable on foot or by bus, and buses help with longer trips.
Housing is more affordable than in many parts of the state. Light infill development is updating a few streets while the wider area stays largely unchanged.
Desirability lands below average here: softer community and employment, plus safety weighing on the result versus similar metro suburbs, even with growth momentum, plus schools and education holding up better.

Methodology
Figures are allocated from ABS Estimated Resident Population at Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2), using 2021 Census share within overlapping SA2 regions. Where Census data is unavailable, area overlap is used instead.
The dashed chart line is a simple growth-trend estimate to June 2030 (~2,400), extrapolated at -0.3% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.

The estimated suburb profile blends up to eight nearest ordinary polling booths in the same electorate using inverse-distance weighting from the suburb centroid — an approximation, not official AEC data.

ABS Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA), 2021 release — the latest available, derived from the 2021 Census. Deciles rank suburbs nationally from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).
What do IRSAD and IRSD measure?
IRSAD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. Combines indicators of advantage (e.g. high income, skilled occupations) and disadvantage. Higher decile = more advantaged relative to other Australian areas.
IRSD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage. Focuses on disadvantage only (e.g. low income, unemployment, limited education). Higher decile = less disadvantage nationally.
A new SEIFA edition typically follows each census; the ABS has not announced a release date beyond 2021.
