About Clyde North

Clyde North is Melbourne's fastest-growing suburb, its population exploding from 8,000 to over 31,000 in just five years as estates transform former farmland 47 kilometres southeast of the CBD. Though rail access requires travelling to nearby Cranbourne, the suburb has attracted young families seeking affordable land and modern homes in the Casey growth corridor.

Life here is defined by new beginningsβ€”contemporary homes, establishing schools, and communities forming in real time. Shopping is improving with the Selandra Rise Town Centre, while parks and playgrounds arrive in each estate. The population skews young and multicultural, with Indian and Sri Lankan communities particularly prominent. Clyde North attracts first-home buyers and young families seeking house-and-land packages, accepting longer commutes in exchange for new homes with space to grow.

Clyde North falls under postcode 3978 and is governed by Casey Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Berwick (South-Eastern Metropolitan) electorate.
