Suburb profile

Clyde is a major regional centre in New South Wales, in Parramatta Council.

School access is exceptionally strong, placing it among the highest-ranked major regional centres. Space is a strength, but car dependence is high. Trade-offs centre on thinner park access, fewer university qualifications and limited amenity for the price, with park access 100% below the peer median.

Clyde is a better fit for people who value school access more than open space.

ABS Estimated Resident Population allocated to this suburb from SA2-level data. Not an official ABS suburb count.

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 (~0), extrapolated at +1.8% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.
