Overview

Smithfield sits on Adelaide’s northern fringe within the City of Playford, framed by Main North Road to the east and a historic grid of homes centring Augusta Square to the south. The suburb blends older private residences with newer housing west and south of the railway line, while an industrial strip runs alongside the tracks. Everyday conveniences include the Smithfield Hotel, local service stations, the expansive Munno Para Shopping City and Smithfield Recreation Park, home to cricket and football clubs. Families benefit from several nearby schools, John Hartley School (1.3 km), Blakeview Primary (1.3 km) and Blakes Crossing Christian College (1.8 km), and an Army Reserve depot that hosts the 3rd/9th Light Horse and 49 ACU Cadets.

Transport is a strong point, with Smithfield railway station on the Gawler line offering 15‑minute peak services to Adelaide and 30‑minute off‑peak frequencies, plus express trains that stop at Smithfield. A modern bus interchange links local Adelaide Metro routes to the train timetable, while Main North Road provides direct road access to neighbouring suburbs such as Smithfield Plains, Blakeview and Elizabeth North.
