About Gregory Hills

Gregory Hills is a rapidly growing master-planned suburb in Sydney's South West, located approximately 55 km from the CBD in the Camden local government area. The population has surged from around 5,000 in 2016 to over 9,100 in 2021 — an 83% increase reflecting the area's appeal to young families. With a median age of 20-39 and predominantly owner-occupied homes (78%), it's a community of first-home buyers and growing families attracted by modern housing and more affordable entry points to the Sydney market.

The suburb centres on Gregory Hills Town Centre, which offers a Woolworths supermarket, medical centre, BWS, and over 20 specialty stores including cafés and restaurants. Nearby Macarthur Square (15 minutes) provides major retail including David Jones, Event Cinemas, and Kingpin bowling. St Gregory's College is a prominent local school. The area has parks, playgrounds, and walking paths throughout the development. While car-dependent for most errands, the community atmosphere and new infrastructure make it popular with families seeking space and value in Greater Sydney.

Gregory Hills falls under postcode 2557 and is governed by Camden Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Camden electorate.
