Mount Druitt is located about 43 kilometres (27 mi) west of the Sydney central business district, placing it within the Greater Western Sydney region.
Within 0.5–0.8 km you’ll find Ellen Dale Reserve (0.2 km), Bukari Reserve (0.3 km), Mount Druitt Hospital (0.3 km), Mount Druitt Library (0.6 km), and Westfield Mount Druitt shopping centre (0.8 km). Several other parks and reserves such as Mount Druitt Town Centre Reserve and William Mason Reserve are also nearby.
Mount Druitt is served by the Main Western railway line, which arrived in 1881, and the first electric train operated to the suburb on 8 October 1955. These services connect the area to the wider Sydney rail network.
Mount Druitt was previously reported as having high crime rates, but statistics show that crime has been on a decline as of 2024. This trend reflects ongoing community and policing efforts.
The area was originally a 2,000‑acre grant to Major George Druitt in the early 19th century and remained rural until the Main Western railway line arrived in 1881, spurring development. Notable heritage sites include The Manse on The Avenue and the Neoblie house on Great Western Highway.
