Well a few on here like to refer to "backyard Wreckers", well here is a photo of the trend that's taking over many of Adelaide's northern suburb properties.

They are called "Frontyard Wreckers" and this is why. Honestly how do they get away with this shite by their Councils ?

I have just added Adelaide northern suburbs as the place not to move to.

Fark living across the road from that mess.

Depends on what part of the northern surburbs that mess is....I live in the northern surburbs and my area ain't like that....

More like the council that area appears to be located, are a lazy bunch of mother truckers, with their priorities all farked up.

The style of house appears to be an area that is a combination of trust housing and working class people housing.....The trust are in the process of demolishing houses like this and putting 2 or more houses on the one block....So sites like this will disappear

No they won't, it'll just double the problems living there.

Just go and look in Blair Athol where the trust and private developers have moved in and are knocking down single houses one after the other and replacing them with 6 double storey dwellings in the same location. Wow if you don't think that this will create larger and worse social issues then think again.

More along the lines of not having cars cluttering the yards...

For what it is worth, the area appears to be Davoren Park/Smithfield area and I have seen how they are jamming 2 or more houses where 1 used to be...The clutter doesn't seem as bad as it used to be....And I have friends and my daughter live around that area
