Suburb profile

St Marys is an outer metropolitan suburb of Sydney, in Penrith Council, with mainly mixed commercial and residential development. Notable landmarks include St Marys Railway Station Group.

Shops and everyday services are easier to access than in most comparable places. Health access is an exceptional strength, placing it among the highest-ranked outer metropolitan suburbs. Rents are relatively affordable, with median rents 10% below the peer median. Crime in the wider postcode 2760 remains above typical levels but is improving. Reported offences have fallen 26% year on year. The main trade-offs are lower school ICSEA scores and lower socio-economic advantage.

Methodology

Figures are allocated from ABS Estimated Resident Population at Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2), using 2021 Census share within overlapping SA2 regions. Where Census data is unavailable, area overlap is used instead.

The dashed chart line is a simple growth-trend estimate to June 2030 (~15,300), extrapolated at +1.6% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.

Division-level results are official AEC figures from the latest general election, with by-election updates where applicable. The estimated suburb profile blends up to eight nearest ordinary polling booths in the same electorate using inverse-distance weighting from the suburb centroid — an approximation, not official AEC data. Nearest polling places are shown for reference.

Socio-economic

IRSAD decile (2021)
2/10
IRSD decile (2021)
2/10

ABS Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA), 2021 release — the latest available, derived from the 2021 Census. Deciles rank suburbs nationally from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).

What do IRSAD and IRSD measure?

IRSAD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. Combines indicators of advantage (e.g. high income, skilled occupations) and disadvantage. Higher decile = more advantaged relative to other Australian areas.

IRSD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage. Focuses on disadvantage only (e.g. low income, unemployment, limited education). Higher decile = less disadvantage nationally.

A new SEIFA edition typically follows each census; the ABS has not announced a release date beyond 2021.
