Median Property Value Analysis

Clarendon in South Australia sits within the broader property market of the region. The median property value provides a benchmark for home buyers evaluating the suburb against neighbouring areas and state averages across South Australia. Understanding where a suburb sits in the price spectrum is a critical first step in property research.

Property values in Clarendon are influenced by factors including location, housing stock diversity, school catchments, transport access, and increasingly climate risk exposure. The median price represents the middle point of all sales โ€” half sold for more, half for less โ€” and is the most commonly cited benchmark in Australian property market reporting. Domain and CoreLogic both publish suburb-level median price data that can be compared across South Australia.

For buyers considering Clarendon, the relationship between property value and climate risk is becoming increasingly important. Properties in areas with lower exposure to flood, bushfire, and extreme heat may hold value better over the long term as climate risk awareness grows among Australian home buyers.

Clarendon (postcode 5157) is tracked in ClimateNest's suburb hazard model, which maps the share of the suburb's land exposed to each hazard at high and moderate levels. The suburb's highest high-risk exposures are bushfire (17.1% of land in high-risk zones), surface flood (5.3% of land in high-risk zones), riverine flood (3.7% of land in high-risk zones). Exposure is not uniform across Clarendon โ€” individual properties can sit well above or below these averages, so an address-level check is recommended before buying, selling or insuring.
