Port Adelaide is a port-side region of Adelaide, approximately 14 kilometres (8.7 mi) northwest of the Adelaide CBD. It is also the namesake of the City of Port Adelaide Enfield council, a suburb, a federal and state electoral division and is the main port for the city of Adelaide. Port Adelaide played an important role in the formative decades of Adelaide and South Australia, with the port being early Adelaide's main supply and information link to the rest of the world.

Port Adelaide is known for its well preserved 19th-century pubs and hotels, reflecting the area's maritime history in catering to the sailors of trading ships.Port Adelaide is home to various markets including the Torrens Island Food Market and the Fisherman’s Wharf Markets which is housed in Shed 1, the last remaining Wharf Shed in the inner Port Adelaide harbour. The Fishermans Wharf Markets are soon to be demolished for the construction of apartments and a public plaza. [61]Port Adelaide is traditionally a working class area which stemmed from the economic activity the wharves produced and the subsequent industry.From the time of settlement, the port's population grew rapidly. By 1876 it was estimated that there were 5,000 living in 500 houses. More measured figures were 3,013 residents recorded in the 1881 census and 5005—living in approximately 1000 houses—recorded in the 1891 census.[63] By 1911 the port was the State's second largest city and had a population over half that of Adelaide city. By 2006 the population had declined; that year's census records 1,099 living in c. 560 houses. The 2006 census also shows that suburb's median family income is low to average for Australia, though median individual and household income is lower, indicating a low socioeconomic status for the area. Unemployment is relatively high for the region and educational attainment moderately low in comparison to other Metropolitan Adelaide local government areas.[83] Over half of the population identified as Christian—mostly Catholic and Anglican—though almost a third expressed no religious affiliation.[84]People who lived around the Port Adelaide area include:
