About Hinchinbrook

Hinchinbrook was master-planned from the ground up in Sydney's southwest, about 35 kilometres from the CBD in the Liverpool council area. This family suburb of roughly 11,500 residents features curved streets, abundant parks, and a village centre designed to foster community. It's one of the earlier examples of thoughtful suburban planning in the region.

The demographic is solidly family - young and growing families attracted by affordable homes, good schools, and facilities built with children in mind. The suburb has matured since its development, with established trees and a settled community feel replacing the raw newness of early years. It's a quiet, practical suburb where people focus on family life without fuss.

Hinchinbrook falls under postcode 2168 and is governed by Liverpool Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Liverpool electorate.
