Elizabeth North: A Planned Community

Elizabeth North was created in the late 1950s. It was designed as a place for people to live within the larger, newly planned City of Elizabeth. This city was built to provide homes and jobs for many people moving to the area.

How Elizabeth North Started

When Elizabeth North was planned, it was set up like a small, self-contained community. The idea was to have everything people needed close by. This included a small shopping centre.

What You Could Find There

The shopping centre in Elizabeth North had important places for daily life. You could find a supermarket to buy food and a bank for money. There was also a hotel and a service station. Other smaller shops were part of this community hub too. This design made it easy for residents to access services without traveling far.

Getting Around Elizabeth North

The suburb is well-connected by train. Two railway stations, Womma and Broadmeadows, serve the area. This makes it easier for people to travel to other parts of Adelaide.
