Inner West
Concord
A leafy family-oriented suburb on the Parramatta River, anchored by Concord Hospital and the Concord Golf Club. Mostly Federation cottages and post-war brick homes on bigger blocks than the inner inner-west. Strong primary schools and a low-key community feel. Suits families wanting bigger gardens, golf-course frontage and a 20-minute commute to the CBD.
