Westmead

The king of convenience, Westmead is one of Western Sydney’s most practical postcodes. Located just west of Parramatta, it stands out as a health and education hub that professionals, students and families of all sizes call home. Lively yet peaceful, it’s close to just about everything and has a strong community spirit.

Locals have top-notch facilities at their fingertips. The suburb boasts some of the city’s best hospitals, medical centres and specialists, including Westmead Private Hospital and The Children’s Hospital at Westmead. Along with the University of Western Sydney campus, it has a range of primary and high schools, making it very family-friendly. Locals take full advantage of the parks, playgrounds and sporting grounds scattered all over the suburb, such as Sydney Smith Park. Westmead Shopping Village has a string of stores and eateries, with more shopping, dining and entertainment options just minutes away in Parramatta.

The suburb is well-serviced by public transport. There is a train station in Westmead (with 30-minute services into the city), and another one in Parramatta. Buses operate regularly, and drivers can quickly reach the suburb via the M4 Motorway or Great Western Highway.
