Noarlunga's not even a suburb, are you referring to Old Noarlunga which used to be known as Noarlunga? Or Noarlunga Centre, or Noarlunga Downs or Port Noarlunga?

Probably Hyde Park or Unley. So many Cafe crawlers and more trendies per square metre than any other part of town. Scary.

The actual suburb of "Elizabeth" isn't all that bad, there is bugger all housing trust houses or semi-detached, it's some of the surrounding suburbs that contain the name Elizabeth that bring the area down.

Parts of Elizabeth and surrounding areas are very depressed and there are pockets of almost slum like living. However, what the north does have is a significant industrial base, much more so than the south of Adelaide.
It strikes me that employment prospects are therefore better for the north.

Employment prospects are better if you are a Glazier, Tattooist, Porn Shop or Op Shop worker, or a Hub Cap Collector.

Was thinking the same thing the last time I went to a night game at the Ponderosa. I was pleasantly surprised that my car still had it's wheels after the game.

I stayed with friends who lived in Davoren Park for a week during 2007 with no harm done.
I even went down to the local for some wine for dinner and survived, but the wine choice was rather limited...
I was driving my old AWD Musso.

I sat in a Lambo once but my wife described it as "Steven Spielberg on a bad day!" I took that as a "No!"
I haven't bought the Cayman I looked at a few weeks ago, as I'm rather attached to my 1995 Audi S2 which has the advantage of being less conspicuous.
