About Croydon Park

Croydon Park straddles the border between Inner West and Canterbury-Bankstown councils, about 12 kilometres from Sydney's CBD. This residential suburb of roughly 10,900 residents features modest housing on quiet streets, with an emerging café scene along the main road. It's often overlooked in favour of trendier Inner West neighbours, which keeps prices relatively accessible.

Young families and first-home buyers have discovered the value proposition - affordable for the location, with improving amenities and easy access to both Inner West and Canterbury areas. The demographic is diverse and unpretentious, with neighbours from various backgrounds sharing the quiet streets. It lacks the personality of surrounding suburbs but offers genuine livability for those who prioritise practical over hip.

Croydon Park falls under postcode 2133 and is governed by Inner West Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Strathfield electorate.
