Ok, I'll be honest with ya, its not the best suburb, it has a lot of problems with white versus black street gangs, they have put all the new sudanese, african refugees there and alot of the white Aussies dont like them. Also Blair Athol is mainly unemployed and blue collar. However it is only 10 min to the city by car, it has shops etc all in walking distance. I'm not saying its really,really bad, I would just be careful on your own especially at night. There are some nicer streets ofcourse but thats the same in every suburb. Its not the worst but definately not the best either. Cheers.

Blair Athol is nothing special, but I certainly don't agree with the person who mentioned gangs.
The best thing about Blair Athol is that it is only a 15 min drive from Adelaide. So you can pretty much do anything you want, or get to some where that you can do it in terms of entertainment such as movies, restuarants, shopping, etc.
The suburb has everything you need, lots of shopping centres, restuarants, good public transport etc.
Have fun!

They often put speed cameras on the Main North Road at Blair Athol so don't speed. I've been caught there.
