A lot of people skim over Gepps Cross as a suburb to live, they usually look Northfield, Enfield & Pooraka. The suburb is priced well for First Home Buyers plus investors wanting to add to their portfolio. Properties within the area are typically your 60-70's solid brick or conventional homes on large 600m2+ Blocks. This suburb is up and coming and should see a lot of appreciation over the next 5 - 10 years given the block sizes and location to the CBD.

I had previously lived in Woodville and know the area very well! Woodville North is extremely convenient to local amenities including local schools, shopping facilities and public transport (trains & buses) plus it's distance from the city and beaches. The suburb is fairly safe however does lack night life including eateries. It's definitely an up and coming suburb that's perfect to live in and invest.

This, along with Milner Rd & Davenport Tce, would have to be one of the busier streets in Richmond however this shouldn't deter you from living here as there are multiple round-a-bouts along the street that reduces people from speeding. The street has loads of large allotments and character homes plus is super convenient to get into the city as there are multiple routes you can take.

Brooklyn Park is great city fringe suburb with loads of potential and is very popular. There are lots of local schools, shops and public transport routes surrounding it. It's close by to the Air Port however this means that some sections are under the flight path.

Ashford is a great spot to live, it's perfectly located within close proximity to the CBD and Beach. Most streets are quiet however I find the busiest thoroughfare would be Everard Ave (it cuts through Ashford from Anzac Hwy and connects to South Rd). During business hours it can be difficult getting a park along the Everard Ave however at night it's quite easy.

Prices of homes in the area are still inexpensive in comparison to other city fringe suburbs and there is a great mixture of modern, character homes plus units within the area.

Richmond is an undervalued Adelaide CBD fringe suburb, offering convenience of location between the city and beach with large block sizes that are affordable for every day Australian families. The demographic make up of Richmond is predominately professionals, aged 25-34 years consisting of primarily couples with children.

Craig Street is fantastic for various household structures, many of the homes are sited on 650m2 or larger:

- Located on the fringe of Adelaide’s CBD
- Walking distance to the city
- Short drive to the beach
- Easy access to local shops and schools
- Predominantly 50's & 60's era homes
