Springvale East

Introduction and key statistics

Springvale East is an established residential area. Springvale East is bounded by the suburb of St Johns Hill in the north, Parsons Street in the east, Devon Road in the south, and the locality of Blueskin in the west. Springvale East is named for the eastern part of Springvale, which is named for the springs which were originally in the area.

Settlement of the area dates primarily from the late 1800s, with some growth during the early 1900s. Significant development did not occur until the 1940s, with rapid growth during the 1960s and 1970s. The population fluctuated slightly from the mid 1990s, due to small changes in dwelling stock and the average number of persons living in each dwelling.
