Where is the most British suburb / area in Adelaide

[Guest deardos]

Hi all,

 

i think this is the right area to post this ???

 

As we all know Elizabeth was the area in the 60's where the poms settled when they first arrived ! Where do you think it is now ? Or which area has the. Biggest British population ?

[trevorpayne]

I would of thought Seaford or Port Noarlunga must be up there.

Who cares...we live in Australia!!

You can look at the ABS (Australian Bureau of Statistics) if you really want the true answer.

Hallett Cove or Seaford Meadows possibly. Both are full of the whinging lot.

 

?

[scooterdan]

ohhhhhh..... you mentioned Hallett Cove.... prepare to get your ass kicked!!

[xzibit]

I think I did once see an Australian in Hallett Cove although he was probably lost.

Hallet Cove AKA Dale Farm

And are they still talking to you? I went to Hallett Cove once and got lost:unsure:.... Nah used to live at Hallett Cove and you are right it is a nice spot to live and I am not a Pom.

It's difficult to say and I didn't look hard enough into Diane's link, although it probably tells you exactly what you want to know somewhere, but I have to say I don't think I've heard an Aussie voice in Hallet Cove, but it could be because these days I only seem to hear stronger accents which tend to be British. A friend moved house in Seaford Rise, sold there old house to poms, bought a house from Poms and the agent was a pom. Another Aussie mate thinks Aldinga is little britain, he doesn't mind it as he thinks the Brits are a good laugh, but again it gives you an impression of what it's like, without knowing the facts.

[Mr Technical]

I think Aldinga is the new HC. Went to see a client recently and he was an Aussie living in Flagstaff Hill and one of the first things he told me was how many poms there were living there.

If only they had installed Google maps on their iPhone, they could have avoided all the hassle.

Yer,like as subtle as wot I yam.

 

Or as subtle as the chillis a friend gave me last week.

 

He was pleased to see me a few days after as he forgot to tell me he had put some Ghost Chillis in the bag.

These are officially the hottest chilli's in the world at over 1 Million Scoville Units!:shocked::shocked::swoon:

Fortunately missed them .

Would be nice for a really stringy and whingy pom marinade though.

 

Have we diverted this thread enough??

Assuming this data is correct, the winner in terms of total % of UK origin living in the suburb is Christies Beach, followed by Pt Noarlunga (22%) and Elizabeth (21%). Hallett cove comes in at 13%. Can't find data of the population numbers for each area, so don't know what this means in actual number of people terms.

Clicking on each suburb gives some other useful information.

[HEAPS GOOD !!!]

We dnt know that many poms down here in Aldinga Beach TBH, we live here and like it but its getting too big for what it has....there is not much infrastructure, were looking at going country......
