Overview

Fairfield sits 30 km west of Sydney’s CBD on the Cumberland Plain, serving as the administrative hub of Fairfield City Council. With a 2021 population of 18,596, more than two‑thirds were born overseas, creating a vibrant multicultural atmosphere celebrated through a wide range of cafés, restaurants and specialty shops along Smart and Ware Streets. The suburb’s housing is a blend of medium‑density flats and newer high‑rise apartments, especially around the commercial centre, while the historic railway station (opened 1856) anchors a lively retail precinct that includes three major shopping malls and the nearby Fairfield Library.

Excellent public‑transport links connect Fairfield to the city via the Fairfield railway station on the Main Southern line, complemented by a busy bus interchange and arterial roads such as the Horsley Drive. Families benefit from several schools within a kilometre, including Fairfield High School and Patrician Brothers’ College, and the area offers abundant green space – Crescent Park, Fairfield Adventure Park and the De Freitas Wetland – supporting an active outdoor lifestyle.
