Overview

Penrith, the administrative centre of the City of Penrith, lies 55 km west of Sydney’s CBD on the Nepean River and at the edge of the Cumberland Plain. With a 2021 census population of 17,966, the suburb offers a mix of housing – 36 % separate houses, 20.4 % semi‑detached dwellings and 43.4 % flats, units or apartments – alongside leafy parks such as Jenkins, Parker Street Reserve, Spence and Norman Peek. Residents enjoy major retail hubs including Westfield Penrith and Nepean Village, cultural venues like the Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Complex, Hoyts cinema, Penrith Museum of Fire and a public library.

Transport is well‑served: Penrith railway station on the Main Western line provides frequent city and Blue Mountains services and links to a bus interchange and Nightride route 70. Road access runs via the Great Western Highway, M4, M7 and, in the future, the proposed M9 motorway, connecting the suburb to St Marys, Mount Druitt and the wider western Sydney region.
