Division of Hindmarsh Totally Explained

Everything about The Division Of Hindmarsh totally explained

The Division of Hindmarsh is an Australian Electoral Division in South Australia covering the western gulfside suburbs of Adelaide.
   The division was created in 1903 and is named for John Hindmarsh, who was Governor of South Australia 1836-38. For many years it was one of the safest Labor seats in the country, but boundary and demographic changes have made it a marginal seat. Before 1949, Hindmarsh included most of Port Adelaide.
    currently has the highest proportion of citizens over the age of 65 in Australia, (21.2%, compared to the national average of 12.1%). It has long been dominated by working-class families and aged pensioners, but it's now attracting new wealth to its seaside suburbs, which used to be contained within the division of Hawker. The Adelaide Airport is located in the electorate, and noise pollution is a prominent local issue, besides the aged care needs of the relatively elderly population.
   Prominent sitting members have included Norman Makin, who was Speaker in the Scullin government and a cabinet minister in the Curtin and Chifley governments, and Clyde Cameron, who was a cabinet minister in the Whitlam government.
