Question 1

Is Bower a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Bower is a tiny agricultural locality of 41 people set among broad cereal paddocks and scattered gum trees, with a compact village feel. The area is dominated by working farms and traditional farmhouse dwellings alongside a few rural-residential blocks for people wanting more space. The community has a median age of 56 and a median household income of $866 a week, and all homes are owner-occupied. Day-to-day life follows the rhythm of the seasons and local community events, while shops, schools and larger services are found in nearby towns.

Country roads give ready access to open countryside, and Bower Boundary Road has seen government-funded renewal and widening works with further works planned; the Regional Council has also placed a petition about the road’s condition. The historic Lime Kiln Ruins on Bower Boundary Road are listed on the South Australian Heritage Register. Whether Bower suits you depends on whether you want a quiet, low-key rural pace and a small, established farming community.
