The Walkerville Council has been in existence for just over 150 years, being proclaimed in July 1855. The community is very proud of its history and the "village" character of the council area.

Walkerville is situated on the north-eastern border of the Adelaide CBD and is the smallest council within the metropolitan area, covering only 3.5 square kilometres and was one of the earliest settled areas outside of central Adelaide.

The Town, consisting of the suburbs of Medindie, Gilberton, Walkerville and Vale Park has a population of just over 7,000 residents. Approximately 92% of all Councils application assessments are residential, many of these properties dating back to the mid 1800s and provide a variety of dwelling styles ranging from single fronted cottages to mansions of a grand scale.
