Question 1

Is Ferryden Park a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Ferryden Park is a compact inner-north Adelaide suburb in the City of Port Adelaide Enfield, made up of a tight grid of mid-century brick and weatherboard bungalows and modest post-war homes alongside some newer infill. It has a quietly residential, working-class character and is largely a suburb of families. The population is 4,495 and the median age is 37, while homes are more often owner-occupied than rented.

Local life centres on small shopping strips, pocket parks and community facilities, with regular buses and straightforward road connections into the city and neighbouring suburbs. There is an award-winning UnitingSA community housing development that provides two-bedroom houses for women aged 55 and over with communal outdoor space, energy-efficient features and access to support services, and residents use the Parks Community Centre in adjoining Angle Park for library, health, gym and swimming facilities and council services. Whether Ferryden Park suits you comes down to the kind of suburb you want: low-rise, unpretentious and close to everyday amenities.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Ferryden Park?

Accepted Answer

A median house price of $899,000 in Ferryden Park works out to about 13.8 times a typical local household's annual income at the last Census (that income was $1,253 a week). Renting a house at about $650 a week would take roughly 51.9% of that weekly household income, which is a large share. If you're renting rather than buying, that rent share is the figure most directly relevant; whether these numbers feel expensive depends on your own income and circumstances.

Everyone's financial situation is different, so it's important to consider your own circumstances when deciding which suburb is right for you.
