Re: No wonder we're struggling!
Munno Para is 33km north of Adelaide CBD - that might not seem much to a Sydneysider but in South Australian terms it is a long way away.
Of the 10 affordable towns listed in SA the largest is probably about 3000 inhabitants and at least 150km from any major shopping or cultural centre. The reason the houses are so cheap is that supply far outweighs demand!
The Adelaide "suburbs" listed probably have the highest percentage of residents receiving CentreLink payments.

I'm sure ABC can confirm with you're right about Centrelink payments but I suspect you might not be. People often chose more industrial areas because of work don't they?

Re: No wonder we're struggling!
To refer to Elizabeth, Munno Para and Smithfield as Adelaide suburbs is stretching the imagination a bit! Elizabeth was created as a separate city in the 50's as somewhere to put the £10 Poms - it's just urban sprawl that has (almost) joined it to Adelaide's outer suburbs.
