I live in an inner city suburb, about seven kilometres from the CBD (and slightly less to the beach, which is great). Its proximity to the city means it’s a very old suburb that originally had large homesteads with land allocations for farming, which has been subdivided and filled in over the years. The local primary school started in 1861 not long after the first Europeans arrived in South Australia in 1836, the church down the road had the first part built in 1847, and the house next door is one of the original homesteads built in 1863.
