About Glenfield

Glenfield has transformed with improved rail connections, sitting on the edge of Sydney's southwest growth corridor about 35 kilometres from the CBD. This suburb of roughly 10,500 residents bridges established housing with new development, as the station's improved services have attracted developer attention. Part of Campbelltown council, it's becoming more connected.

Young families are discovering the value proposition - train access to the city, improving facilities, and housing prices below inner-ring alternatives. The demographic is diverse and unpretentious, with residents focused on practical family life. TAFE and educational facilities add a younger element. It's a suburb in transition, becoming more than it was while remaining affordable.

Glenfield falls under postcode 2167 and is governed by Campbelltown Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Macquarie Fields electorate.
