About Cunliffe
Cunliffe is a small rural locality on the Yorke Peninsula of South Australia, situated approximately 15 kilometres south-east of Wallaroo within the Copper Coast Council area. Covering around 55.8 square kilometres of flat cereal farming country, it had a 2021 Census population of approximately 50 residents. The locality is set within the northern Yorke Peninsula's productive wheat and barley country, where the fertile Yorke Peninsula soils support consistent grain harvests across the open agricultural landscape.
Wallaroo and Kadina, the Copper Coast's heritage towns, are within easy reach and provide shops, schools, healthcare, and the peninsula's historic copper mining and export heritage. The Yorke Peninsula is a popular weekend destination for South Australians, offering fishing, beaches, and the relaxed coastal character of the gulf waters. Cunliffe suits those connected to the grain farming community of the Yorke Peninsula's Copper Coast district.
Cunliffe falls under postcode 5554 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Narungga electorate.
