About Climate Risk in South Australia
South Australian suburbs experience extreme heat waves particularly in Adelaide and the Murray-Darling Basin, combined with bushfire risk in the Adelaide Hills and Mount Lofty Ranges, and coastal erosion affecting Gulf St Vincent and Spencer Gulf properties.
ClimateNest suburb assessments are built using Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) historical hazard data, CSIRO future climate projections under SSP2-4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios, state-specific hazard overlays from emergency services and planning authorities, and actuarial data. Every assessment includes current hazard scores (0–100), projected scores for 2030 and 2050, local geographic evidence, insurance outlook, and property owner recommendations.
