About Beulah Park

Beulah Park is a compact inner-eastern suburb of Adelaide, located approximately 5 kilometres from the CBD within the City of Burnside local government area. With a population of 1,601 at the 2021 Census across an area of just 0.56 square kilometres, it is one of the more densely settled suburbs in the Burnside council area. The median household income of $2,189 per week reflects a highly affluent community, and the suburb's median age of 39 and significant university student population indicate a well-educated, professional demographic.

Beulah Park sits at the junction of two of Adelaide's most prominent eastern roads — Portrush Road and The Parade — and the heritage Clayton Wesley Uniting Church, with its landmark spire, stands at this prominent intersection. Norwood's celebrated dining, café, and boutique shopping strip along The Parade is moments away, providing residents with excellent walkable amenity. Adelaide Metro bus services along Portrush Road offer convenient CBD access, and the suburb's multicultural character — with significant Italian, Greek, and other European and Asian communities — adds to its cosmopolitan inner-city feel.
