Overview

Waikerie is a Riverland town perched on the south bank of the Murray River, home to 1,670 residents according to the 2021 census. The community enjoys a relaxed, rural lifestyle framed by abundant green spaces such as Howell Park, Ifould Park, John P Jennings Park, Apex Playground and Lions River Front Park, all within a kilometre of the centre. Families benefit from a selection of schools nearby – Waikerie Primary, Waikerie Lutheran Primary and Waikerie High – providing both government and independent options.

Transport links are straightforward: the Sturt Highway skirts the town’s cliffs to the south, while a cable ferry offers vehicle access across the Murray River from the north bank. The local housing stock reflects the town’s agricultural heritage, with a mix of dwellings set against citrus, stone‑fruit and grape vineyards, and easy reach to parks, schools and waterfront recreation.
