Adelaide, and SA generally was a free settlement, unlike the other colonies of the time which were developed as penal colonies, as a result of this more of the population were religious and churchgoing than the other states and hence the needs for more churches. Interesting, today, Adelaide is the most atheistic capital city in Australia.
