About Epping
Epping has transformed from a quiet suburban village into a thriving transport hub, where the intersection of the Metro Northwest and Northern lines has sparked significant development. Over 29,000 residents now call this leafy suburb home, enjoying the best of north-west Sydney living with dramatically improved CBD connectivity. The traditional village atmosphere persists in pockets despite the high-rise growth around the station.
Shopping centres and the traditional strip shops on Rawson Street provide daily necessities, while the diverse dining options reflect the suburb's substantial Asian-Australian population. Excellent schools, both public and private, draw families, and nearby Lane Cove National Park offers bushwalking minutes from home. Epping attracts families, particularly from Chinese and Korean backgrounds, who value education, accessibility, and community. It's suburban Sydney adapting successfully to transit-oriented growth.
Epping falls under postcode 2121 and is governed by Parramatta Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Epping electorate.
