About Bondi Junction

Bondi Junction serves as the eastern suburbs' commercial heart, centred on Westfield shopping complex about 6 kilometres east of Sydney's CBD. This dense suburb of roughly 10,400 residents combines major retail with rail and bus interchange, making it an essential hub. Apartment towers cluster around the transport connections.

The suburb is functional rather than charming - people come for the shopping, transport, or apartment living rather than lifestyle appeal. Young professionals appreciate the excellent transport and retail convenience. The demographic is diverse, with the Westfield drawing visitors from across the eastern suburbs while apartments house city commuters. It's a practical hub rather than a destination.

Bondi Junction falls under postcode 2022 and is governed by Waverley Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Coogee electorate.
