Overview
Elizabeth South sits within the historic satellite city of Elizabeth, 24 km north of Adelaide’s centre and the seat of the City of Playford. The area grew from a post‑World‑War II housing programme that covered 1,200 ha, creating a mix of government‑built and private homes that still defines the neighbourhood. At the 2021 census the broader Elizabeth community recorded 40,343 residents, a median age of 35, with 22 % under 15 years, providing a family‑friendly vibe and a culturally diverse population.
Everyday life centres on the Elizabeth Civic Centre, which houses the Playford Library and Shedley Theatre, while the nearby Elizabeth Shopping Centre offers extensive retail under one roof. Residents enjoy green space at Dauntsey and Ridley Reserves and can access education at Playford International College and Kaurna Plains School. Sports fans rally behind the Central District Bulldogs at Elizabeth Oval. Major roads (Main North Road, Philip Highway) and Adelaide Metro services, including the Gawler rail line and Elizabeth station at Mountbatten Square, link the suburb to the wider region, with Elizabeth South railway station just 1.1 km away.
