Kent Town is a central city district of Adelaide, in Norwood Payneham and St Peters Council, where heritage streetscapes sit alongside dense residential and commercial development. Notable landmarks include Royal Hotel, Kent Town Uniting Church Hall and Schoolroom and Kent Town Uniting (former Wesleyan Methodist) Church.
Local amenities are a relative strength, placing it among the highest-ranked metropolitan suburbs. Local school ICSEA scores sit well above the peer median. Population growth is an exceptional strength, with population growth 106% above the peer median, and university qualifications are more common than in comparable places, with university qualifications 53% above the peer median. The clearer weaknesses are higher housing costs and higher recorded crash rates relative to resident population, with recorded road crashes 95% above the peer median.
Kent Town is a better fit for people who value local amenities and school quality more than lower housing costs.

Methodology
Figures are allocated from ABS Estimated Resident Population at Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2), using 2021 Census share within overlapping SA2 regions. Where Census data is unavailable, area overlap is used instead.
The dashed chart line is a simple growth-trend estimate to June 2030 (~1,750), extrapolated at +1.3% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.

Federal electorate from AEC federal division boundaries (2025 redistribution). Division-level results are official AEC figures from the latest general election, with by-election updates where applicable. The estimated suburb profile blends up to eight nearest ordinary polling booths in the same electorate using inverse-distance weighting from the suburb centroid — an approximation, not official AEC data. Nearest polling places are shown for reference.
ABS Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA), 2021 release — the latest available, derived from the 2021 Census. Deciles rank suburbs nationally from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).
What do IRSAD and IRSD measure?
IRSAD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. Combines indicators of advantage (e.g. high income, skilled occupations) and disadvantage. Higher decile = more advantaged relative to other Australian areas.
IRSD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage. Focuses on disadvantage only (e.g. low income, unemployment, limited education). Higher decile = less disadvantage nationally.
A new SEIFA edition typically follows each census; the ABS has not announced a release date beyond 2021.
