Suburb profile
Avenue Range is a welcoming smaller community in Naracoorte Lucindale, with a settled community character. Distance from the capital is noticeable, but the trade-off is space, calm and a community that knows its neighbours. Families and commuters make up much of the community, with plenty of young families in the mix.
Local shops, markets and community spots keep everyday life grounded in the town itself. Housing is well-priced for what you get: space, location and everyday convenience.
A trickle of new development is refreshing selected pockets without changing the overall feel.
