Clare is a major regional centre in South Australia, in Clare and Gilbert Valleys Council, where heritage streetscapes sit alongside mixed commercial and residential development. Notable landmarks include Court House, St. Michael's Church and Clare Institute Library.
Local amenities is an exceptional strength, well above typical levels for major regional centres. Everyday destinations are relatively walkable. Local school ICSEA scores sit well above the peer median. Recorded road-crash rates are lower than in comparable places, with recorded road crashes 52% below the peer median. The clearer weaknesses are weaker population growth and more mapped flood cover, with population growth 103% below the peer median.

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 (~3,400), extrapolated at +0.4% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.

Federal electorate from AEC federal division boundaries (2025 redistribution). Division-level results are official AEC figures from the latest general election, with by-election updates where applicable. 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. Nearest polling places are shown for reference.
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.
