Question 1

Is Lethbridge Park a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Lethbridge Park is a practical, residential suburb on the outer edge of Mount Druitt in Sydney’s west. Housing is mostly established single-storey brick and weatherboard homes with pockets of newer townhouses, and local life centres on small shopping strips, community and sporting fields and neighbourhood parks. Larger retail centres and train services at Mount Druitt are easily accessible, and there are nearby schools and community facilities, giving the suburb a lived-in, everyday feel rather than a polished, master-planned precinct.

The community of 4,730 people has a median age of 32 and a typical household income of $1,073 a week (about $55,800 a year). Lethbridge Park tends to attract families, with one-parent families prominent at 38.3% and couple families also well represented, and homes are more often rented (59.3%) than owner-occupied (40.8%). The suburb is a satellite site for The Salvation Army’s Western Sydney Lighthouse community and arts hub, and it borders the area covered by the Wianamatta Regional Park masterplan around the former ADI site at St Marys.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Lethbridge Park?

Accepted Answer

Renting a house in Lethbridge Park runs to about $520 a week, which is roughly 48.5% of a typical local household's weekly income of $1,073 as recorded at the last Census. On these figures, rent would take a large share of a typical local household's income at the last Census, so for renters this is the main affordability measure to watch.

Everyone's financial situation is different, so it's important to consider your own circumstances when deciding which suburb is right for you.
