About Concord
Concord is an established waterfront suburb located 11 kilometres west of the Sydney central business district, within the Local Government Area of the City of Canada Bay (postcode 2137). Bounded to the north, east, and west by the Parramatta River and its associated bays—including Hen and Chicken Bay and Yaralla Bay—the suburb features a predominantly residential landscape characterized by a mix of historic federation homes, modern apartments, and freestanding properties. According to the 2021 Census, Concord supports a population of approximately 15,000 residents, reflecting a diverse community.
The suburb provides a range of local amenities, anchored by a prominent commercial strip along Majors Bay Road, which offers a variety of retail shops, cafes, supermarkets, and professional services. Concord is well-serviced by public infrastructure, including local bus routes and nearby ferry services connecting residents to the Sydney CBD, alongside multiple parks, sporting facilities, and golf courses. Educational needs are served by several local public and private schools, while healthcare is supported by nearby major medical facilities.
Originally inhabited by the Wangal clan, the area was colonized by Europeans in the late 18th century and named "Concord" in 1793 by Governor Arthur Phillip, reportedly symbolizing harmony between settlers and Indigenous inhabitants. During the 19th and early 20th centuries, the locality transitioned from agricultural land to a hub for industrial and residential development. Several heritage-listed sites remain within the suburb, reflecting its colonial and Victorian past.
