About Tregear

Tregear is a residential suburb in Sydney's outer western suburbs, located approximately 45 kilometres west of the Sydney CBD within the City of Blacktown local government area. With a population of 3,700 and a median age of 30, it is a notably young suburb with a significant proportion of families and a diverse, multicultural community.
