Part B – Sydney Regions Overview

The extract below provides detail on one of Sydney’s regions – Canterbury / Bankstown. The publication itself provides full overviews of all of Sydney’s regions, together with maps and key information on Sydney itself, enabling quick comparisons to be made between regions.

CANTERBURY / BANKSTOWN

Canterbury / Bankstown lies south west of Sydney’s Central Business District beyond the Inner West region.

With median property prices at Band 3 for houses and Band 2 for units, it remains as one of Sydney’s more affordable regions. It is a truly multi cultural region with strong Chinese, Korean, Greek and Lebanese populations.

The area is well served with recreational facilities with 4 centres with cinemas, 7 swimming pools and 7 golf courses / driving ranges.

With a population of over 36,000, Bankstown is the main centre in the region and hosts the largest shopping complexes. Several other suburbs have shopping centres including Ashfield, Bass Hill and Burwood.

Transport links are good with around 27 of the region’s suburbs having train stations. Many of Sydney’s main train lines run through the region.

Further education facilities are also good with 3 TAFE institutes at Bankstown, Chullora and Padstow. The University of Western Sydney also has a campus at Bankstown.
