The land was originally coastal heathland and was first occupied in the early 1840s by John O’S Hannessy, who held a 40,000‑acre squatting licence covering present‑day Clarinda and surrounding suburbs. Development accelerated after municipal councils promoted road and water‑main extensions in the early 1900s, leading to the modern suburb we know today.
According to the 2021 census, Clarinda recorded a population of 7,441 residents. The suburb has grown into a multicultural community with diverse cultural backgrounds.
