About Darlinghurst
Darlinghurst pulses with inner-city energy just 2 kilometres east of Sydney's CBD. This dense, diverse suburb of roughly 10,600 residents stretches from Oxford Street's LGBTQ+ heritage precinct through Victoria Street's restaurant row to the quieter terraces approaching Rushcutters Bay. History and contemporary cool intertwine in every block.
The demographic is diverse in every sense - LGBTQ+ residents who remember the area's activist history, young professionals in converted terraces, and creative types drawn by the energy. The food scene ranges from fine dining to late-night takeaway. Life happens on the street here - cafes spill onto pavements, bars fill from afternoon, and walking beats driving every time. It's Sydney at its most urban.
Darlinghurst falls under postcode 2010 and is governed by Sydney Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Sydney electorate.
