Southern Sydney is the southern metropolitan area of Greater Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia.
Southern Sydney is a title for the regions and neighbourhoods which fall directly south and south-west of the Sydney CBD from the southern boundaries of Central Station down to the Airport and St George region around the southern and western shores of Botany Bay with the southern most concluding point being the Sutherland Shire. This includes all the suburbs in the local government areas of Georges River Council, The Sutherland Shire, most of Bayside Council and the southern suburbs of City of Sydney.[1] The Australian Bureau of Statistics defines a statistical area called The St George-Sutherland Statistical Subdivision[2] and The City and Inner South Statistical Subdivision.[3]
Because the regions that make up Southern Sydney are mostly separated by Botany Bay and The Georges River, rather than directly bordering each other, occasionally suburbs on the eastern shore of Botany Bay are included within Southern Sydney.
The Southern Sydney councils participate in the Southern Sydney Regional Organisation of Councils (SSROC) along with six other councils in the City, Eastern Suburbs and Inner West regions.[4]
The southern suburbs of Sydney can be grouped into three regions:
