Distinction between cities and towns Depending on the criteria used, South Australia contains between eight and ten distinct cities (excluding LGAs, which are often termed "City of…" irrespective of the area's administrative status). Cities typically possess a level of infrastructure, as well as population size and/or density, that distinguish them from smaller towns or settlements (such as Ceduna and Coober Pedy). Notwithstanding this, a city must be formally proclaimed as such by the state government in order to hold the requisite legislative standing.

In some cases, a large town may remain unincorporated – even where its population surpasses that of formally designated cities – until such a time as it is absorbed by an existing city; commonly via urban sprawl.

The eight legally recognised cities within SA, separately proclaimed between 1840 and 2000, are as follows: Adelaide (est. 1840); Port Pirie (est. 1953); Mount Gambier (est. 1954); Whyalla (est. 1961); Port Augusta (est. 1963); Port Lincoln (est. 1971); Murray Bridge (est. 1993); Victor Harbor (est. 2000).

Two further large towns are unofficially regarded as cities: Mount Barker (2026 population estimate of 47,584 – larger than all official cities except Greater Adelaide);https://www.mountbarker.sa.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0025/1724443/Annual-Report-2023-2024-Mount-Barker-District-Council.pdf often referred to as a "major regional city".https://web.archive.org/web/20260929061714/https://www.mountbarker.sa.gov.au/business Gawler (2026 population estimate of 28,196 – roughly equivalent to Mount Gambier and larger than six other cities); described by the South Australian Government as the "regional city of Gawler".https://www.audit.sa.gov.au/sites/default/files/2022-10/Part%20B%20-%20Volume%204.pdf
