Suburb profile
West Bundaleer is a residential smaller community in Northern Areas with a familiar suburban feel. Out in the wider region, it rewards those who value open country and a pace set by the land, not the clock. Long-term locals and family households define much of the community, with plenty of young families in the mix.
Weekends tend to revolve around local favourites: a café, a market run, a walk through town. There is a settled, neighbourly feel to the area that rewards people who like knowing their patch.
Housing is well-priced for what you get: space, location and everyday convenience.

- This land division is concurrent with a process under the Roads (Opening and Closing) Act which seeks to realign the boundaries of Humphris Road so that they are aligned with the physical position of the road. Pieces of the farmland are therefore being opened as Public Road, other pieces are being closed and will become farmland. As a result of this realignment there are some small portions of land that are currently part of the allotments on the eastern side of Humphris Road but which will endLOT 1 HUMPHRIS RD WEST BUNDALEER SA 5491;LOT 876 HUMPHRIS RD WEST BUNDALEER SA 5491;LOT 878 HUMPHRIS RD WEST BUNDALEER SA 5491;LOT 91 HUMPHRIS RD WEST BUNDALEER SA 5491Decision Made
