What does the Residential Development table show in Placemaker?

Understand what each column in the Residential Development table shows in Placemaker, including site status definitions and how to interpret the forecast period filter.

The Residential Development table appears on the Insights page in Placemaker when you're viewing a catchment. It lists major residential development sites that are actively contributing dwellings within your selected forecast period, and shows each site's expected contribution to dwelling growth in your area.

Key Concepts

Site name and address

Each row represents a single residential development site, identified by its researched name and physical address. Sites are sourced from .id's National Forecasting Program residential development research.

Start year

The first year within the forecast period in which the site begins delivering dwellings.

Completion year

The year by which all dwellings at the site are expected to be delivered within the forecast.

Assumed site capacity

The total number of dwellings the site is expected to deliver at full buildout. 

Net dwelling change

The number of dwellings the site contributes within your selected forecast period. This is the figure used to colour-code sites on the map view.
