See the full postcode breakdown.
About these figures: median sale price is from the SA Office of the Valuer-General metro median house sales, Oct–Dec 2025, from 38 sales. Household income and rent are ABS Census 2021; SEIFA decile is the official ABS SEIFA 2021 IRSAD ranking. Average individual taxable income is an annual figure from the ATO's Taxation Statistics (Table 6B, 2022-23), a postcode-level average of lodged tax returns — a different measure from the ABS weekly household figure above, not a suburb-exact one. Indicative only — not valuation or financial advice.
