About Ingleburn

Ingleburn is a well-established suburb in the Campbelltown City LGA in Sydney's south-western corridor, located approximately 45 km from the CBD with a population of around 15,300. It developed post-World War II as part of the outer south-western suburban expansion and has maintained a strong working-class and family community ever since. Ingleburn is adjacent to Macquarie Fields and Minto, forming part of the Campbelltown urban cluster. The suburb has a notable military heritage due to the presence of Bardia Barracks (Ingleburn Army Camp).

The Ingleburn village centre along Oxford Road provides local shops, cafes, and services that create a genuine neighbourhood feel. Ingleburn is popular with families and defence force personnel given its proximity to the army barracks and affordable family housing. Strong community sport, local schools, and community groups give Ingleburn a cohesive character that belies its outer-suburban location. The suburb offers excellent value for owner-occupiers and investors alike, with consistent demand driven by the Campbelltown growth corridor.

Ingleburn falls under postcode 2565 and is governed by Campbelltown Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Macquarie Fields electorate.
