About Sutherland
Sutherland serves as the administrative and transport hub for Sydney's Sutherland Shire, about 26 kilometres south of the CBD. This suburb of roughly 11,600 residents centres on a busy railway junction where lines split to Cronulla and beyond. The main street offers practical shopping while community facilities serve the broader Shire.
Families here appreciate the convenience - good schools, a community-focused village centre, and rail connections to city and coast. The suburb has a workhorse quality, serving the Shire's needs without pretension. Long-term residents mix with younger families who discovered the area's value. The community spirit is genuine, with local events and organisations creating connections across generations.
Sutherland falls under postcode 2232 and is governed by Sutherland Shire Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Heathcote electorate.
