MICKLEHAM – 3064

Hume City has increased significantly in population over the last twenty years, with growth around Sunbury and Craigieburn townships in the north and north-west of the City, as well as through the creation of ‘new’ suburbs such as Meadow Heights, Greenvale, Roxburgh Park & Mickleham. The primary housing market role that the City played over this period was to provide affordable home owning opportunities for families and prospective families from the middle and outer northern suburbs of Melbourne, as well as overseas migrants. This is expected to continue over the forecast period.

Mickleham is changing fast. Where once it was better known as the name of an arterial road connecting the airport to Melbourne’s outer northern suburbs, today it’s a fully-fledged, rapidly-growing suburb.

In 2016, the total population of Mickleham was estimated to be 3,306 people. It is expected to increase by over 31,006 people to 34,312 by 2031, at an average annual growth rate of 16.88%.
