Overview
Villawood sits 27 km west of Sydney’s CBD and is home to 7,051 residents (2021 Census). The median age of 34 reflects a community of young families, 20.5 % are children, and a steady cohort of seniors (12.3 %). Born in over a dozen countries, the suburb’s cultural mix is evident in its schools (Villawood East Public School, Sacred Heart Primary), several Christian churches, and a mosque housed in the old post‑office on Woodville Road. Recent investment has revived the Woodville (Villawood) Place shopping centre with a new supermarket, bakery, chemists and other retailers, while a nearby business park offers hardware, furniture and automotive outlets.
Excellent rail links serve the area, with Villawood and Leightonfield stations on the Main Southern line. Recreation is plentiful: the Wran Leisure and Aquatic Centre provides a pool, courts and gym; Thurina Park supplies fields for soccer, cricket and baseball; and a skatepark and Woods Action centre add indoor climbing, bowling and go‑karting. Proximity to parks such as Edgar Park and Goondah Reserve enhances the suburb’s family‑friendly lifestyle.
