It lies 6.7 km south-south-west of Adelaide, SA (from Adelaide, SA: bearing 205°T), and is situated 11.1 km south of Prospect.

The air, particularly in the late afternoon, carries a peculiar stillness, a quiet exhalation of the day's warmth that settles over the wide streets and suburban blocks. There's a sense of groundedness, of houses settled firmly into the earth, their foundations seemingly as enduring as the pale, ochre-tinged soil beneath them.
Historically, Edwardstown's story is one of suburban expansion, a gradual unfolding from agricultural land into the residential fabric that defines it today. Its economic life, once tied to the surrounding market gardens that supplied the burgeoning city, has largely shifted to retail, services, and light industry, with several key commercial centres anchoring the daily commerce of its residents. The presence of established businesses, some bearing the patina of decades, speaks to a local economy that has adapted and endured, a testament to the resilience of its people. Notable among its contemporary features are the wide, tree-lined avenues, a deliberate legacy of earlier planning that continues to bestow a sense of spaciousness upon the neighbourhood, even as density has increased.
