Our clients
City of Whittlesea
Located in Melbourne’s northern growth corridor, Whittlesea is one of Victoria’s fastest-growing councils. They engaged Place Info for our fast turnaround and up-to-date population forecasts, using both ABS datasets and client information. This ensures they have accurate data to support urban planning and housing strategies, allowing them to respond quickly to rapid development and manage growth effectively.
Mid Murray Council
Covering over 200 kilometers along the Murray River in South Australia, Mid Murray Council covers a vast area. They chose Place Info for our ability to create custom small area forecasts, not limited by standard boundaries. This allowed us to project populations for townships with fewer than 400 residents, providing key input for their Growth Management and Housing Strategy. These forecasts are guiding decisions on infrastructure and services for nineteen communities across the region.
Temora Shire Council
Temora is a small rural council in New South Wales facing growing housing demand. They chose Place Info to provide forecasts that reflect their local realities, which differ from broader trends. Temora needed to include local input, such as a new 450-lot housing estate, which significantly impacts one of their communities. By incorporating this local data, the council can better plan and advocate for the future needs of their community.
Carpentaria Shire Council
Carpentaria, with just 2,200 residents spread across four small areas, was our first remote council. They chose Place Info for our ability to provide detailed and accurate micro forecasts, including age-based births by mother, migration, and deaths. These forecasts help the council target service provision based on age and sex cohorts, ensuring they can meet the needs of their dispersed population across a wide area.
City of Vincent
The City of Vincent chose Place Info for our ability to forecast detached and medium-to-high-density dwellings with precision, including detailed insights on population, occupancy rates, and average household sizes. With custom small areas designed around key locations like town centres, a growth corridor, and infill sites, our forecasts are essential for planning their increasingly dense urban environment.
City of Whitehorse
Whitehorse, home to over 178,000 residents, features activity centres like Box Hill that will accommodate significant growth, driven by state-significant projects such as the Suburban Rail Link. Council engaged Place Info to deliver forecasts extending to 2053, aligned with State Government housing targets. These forecasts enable Whitehorse to monitor housing targets while rapid updates, including annual births by age of mother, support planning for services as the community evolves.
Broken Hill City
As Australia’s first heritage-listed city, Broken Hill is transforming after years of population decline. Place Info’s granular small-area forecasts guide housing strategies, with dwelling structure forecasts supporting CBD revitalisation, occupancy forecasts providing the evidence base for addressing derelict dwellings, and age-specific migration profiles highlighting resident flows across communities. Finally, up-to-date forecasts provide the confidence to make the best decisions in a cyclical economy reliant on a few dominant industries.
Wollondilly Shire Council
Wollondilly, a fast-growing area with significant precinct-level planning needs, turned to Place Info for our ground-up approach to forecasting. Seeking a more tailored alternative to top-down models, the council valued our ability to provide flexible geographies, rapid updates, and detailed small-area data, including precinct-level comparisons. With always up-to-date forecasts, the council can now track progress and make confident decisions based on the latest data.
Town of Gawler
Situated between metropolitan Adelaide and the Barossa, Gawler is experiencing rapid residential expansion on multiple fronts. Council selected Place Info to deliver forecasts that reflect local staging plans, infrastructure sequencing and development activity. Our forecasts integrate these elements, alongside regular developer updates, to show the emerging age structure, dwelling mix and migration flows in each release area. Results feed into open-space and infrastructure levies, and directly into long-term financial planning models and annual budgeting.
City of Wanneroo
As Western Australia's fastest growing council, Wanneroo drives growth in Perth’s northern corridor. With major precincts emerging across the region, the City needed forecasts that could adapt quickly to local plans and development insights. Place Info was chosen for our ability to integrate council inputs such as staging, structure plans and housing mix into detailed precinct forecasts. Combined with fast update cycles, often within hours or days, this ensures council always has current data to guide planning, infrastructure and advocacy across one of Australia’s most dynamic growth areas.
