Understand Your Market
Plan For Your Community
Local insights so your organisation can make the right decisions at the right time.
We specialise in population projections and the analysis of complex demographic information, providing you with improved service provision or future proofing for business.
What we do
Micro-level population forecasting
Inform organisational planning with our local area population projections across Australia and New Zealand. We take age-based, population and dwelling forecasts and customise them to your needs, helping you understand your community or market.
Census analysis
Gain insights into your community or leverage new markets with Census population characteristics. Using complex cross-tabulation around different socio-economic or cultural cohorts, we provide insight into the future and present function of places to help inform your organisation’s plans.
Housing supply and demand
Improve planning outcomes with an evidence-based approach to understand imbalances between supply of residential dwellings and housing demand. We monitor recent developments and compare them to changes in demographics by age and household type to evaluate the effectiveness of your strategies.
Spatial insights
Achieve efficient and timely service delivery and network planning by understanding data spatially. We compare and combine your information with demographic data to understand demand for community facilities, client position and market penetration, helping you optimise geographic coverage.

Hear From Our Clients!
“Demographic Solutions provided a peer review of an alternative base case population scenario rapidly developed to address issues with existing outdated population projections. Understanding the importance of the work to feed into the business case for a large-scale infrastructure project, and the time pressures within which it was required, Matthew Deacon was diligent and professional in his approach to understanding the context, methodology and methods adopted in developing the scenario.
The report provided a detailed, honest and critical review of the work undertaken without fear or favour, and tested the outcomes against his own analysis, which allowed decision-makers to confidently assess the merits of the alternative. As the client’s representative, I thoroughly enjoyed working with Matthew and his team and look forward to the opportunity to work with them again.”
“Wizel Property Group engaged Demographic Solutions to define Blue Collar living and work catchments in multiple states. We found Matthew very responsive to any enquiry and adjustment needed, the project was turned around in quick time, the end result created deep insights and new opportunities to pursue within our project. Matthew has committed years to refining his craft and now his clients reap the benefit. We hold Matthew and Demographic Solutions in high regard and refer them with confidence.”
