Overview

Kent Town is an inner Adelaide suburb that blends heritage charm with a lively café and bar scene, especially during the Adelaide Fringe festival when its eateries draw thousands of visitors. The area is anchored by historic landmarks such as the former Kent Town Brewery, the Wesley Uniting Church and the Dr Kent’s Paddock housing complex, a celebrated medium‑density infill praised for its community‑focused design. Families benefit from the proximity of Prince Alfred College on Dequetteville Terrace and a range of nearby parks including Rymill and Rundle Parks.

Well‑served by main roads – Dequetteville Terrace, Fullarton Road and Rundle Street – Kent Town connects easily to the city centre, while Adelaide Metro buses run along Flinders Street, Dequetteville Terrace, The Parade West and Rundle Street. The suburb’s housing mix combines heritage apartments, the 114‑home Dr Kent’s Paddock social‑housing complex and newer developments. At the 2021 Census the population was 1,443, with a median age of 36 and nearly half of residents holding tertiary qualifications, reflecting a youthful, educated community.
