About Agnes Banks

Agnes Banks is a semi-rural locality on the western fringe of Greater Sydney, situated approximately 68 kilometres north-west of the Sydney CBD within the local government areas of the City of Penrith and City of Hawkesbury. With a population of 996 at the 2021 Census, the suburb spans 15.5 square kilometres of natural bushland, sandy deposits, and open farmland characteristic of the Nepean River floodplain.

The suburb contains the heritage-listed Agnes Banks Natural Area — a significant ecological reserve featuring native woodlands and rare plant communities. Its predominantly Anglo-Australian community values the rural lifestyle and open space that defines the area, and it is popular with hobby farmers, equestrian enthusiasts, and families seeking acreage properties within reach of western Sydney's growing employment corridor.
