About Granville

Granville is a historic suburb at the junction of multiple rail lines, where over 16,000 residents live in one of Sydney's most diverse communities. The station provides excellent connectivity, and proximity to Parramatta's employment hub adds practical value. Recent medium-density development is changing the suburb's character while maintaining affordability.

The shopping strips feature Middle Eastern restaurants, halal grocers, and diverse ethnic businesses reflecting the community's composition. Memorial Park hosts community events, and the historic cemetery tells stories of early Sydney. Granville attracts working families, new migrants, and young professionals seeking affordable inner-west alternatives. It's genuine multicultural Sydneyβ€”unpretentious and improving.

Granville falls under postcode 2142 and is governed by Parramatta Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Granville electorate.
