Which areas in Pooraka is intimidating to live in?

I feel really sorry for the experience you had to put up with! No one should have to put up with that!

The northern suburbs of Adelaide, more like Salisbury and further north, those suburbs, have a bad reputation of crime and bad locals as well. Pooraka has parts all over it where it is intimidating at times so I think that if you were to choose a house, you'd probably not have a very good street. Streets in southern Pooraka are probably a little bit better, but not any different really. If you need to live around this area, I highly check out Walkley Heights which is just down the road. Extremely safe and quiet, with very friendly locals! And it's close to nearly everything you need! Further south but still in the inner north, you have Northgate, Oakden and Lightsview which are all very safe and friendly. If I were to recommend you my personal favourite, definitely it will have to be the southern suburbs! Suburbs like Marion, Pasadena, Panorama, Hallet Cove, Shiedow Park and Flagstaff Hill are some of the many southern suburbs which are very safe, friendly and quiet. Close to the city as well while being nestled closely to the hills and to the southern beaches - the best beaches in SA! Honestly, check out these places I've mentioned and you'd be sure to lock in a secure spot of being safe and getting to know your neighbours instead of being abused, spat on and frustrated with the amount of noise and chaos some neighbourhoods bring! Please, if you have anything else to ask, feel free! Whether it be more info about certain suburbs your interested in or even ones I mentioned, I'm here to help as much as possible!
