Everything about Eastern Suburbs Sydney totally explained
The
Eastern Suburbs is a general term used to describe the metropolitan area directly to the east and south-east of the
Sydney central business district in
Sydney,
New South Wales,
Australia. Eastern Suburbs can refer to the
suburbs within the
local government areas of
Woollahra,
Waverley,
Randwick and part of the
City of Sydney. The
Australian Bureau of Statistics' "Eastern Suburbs Statistical Subdivision" includes only the Woolahra, Waverley and Randwick LGAs.==Demographic==
Demographically, the northern part is mostly
Anglo-Saxon but also contains the majority of Sydney's large
Jewish community.
The Eastern Suburbs is also known for its extremely affluent areas, such as
Vaucluse,
Rose Bay,
Darling Point Dover Heights,
Double Bay,
Point Piper,
Woollahra,
Watsons Bay and
Bellevue Hill.
Travelling south from these suburbs is
Bondi Junction, east Sydney's CBD. Suburbs south of Bondi Junction include
Bondi,
Bronte,
Tamarama,
Queens Park,
Clovelly,
Coogee,
Randwick,
North Randwick and
Kensington.
To the west of Bondi Junction, the 'Inner-City' or 'Inner-East' parts of the Eastern Suburbs, including Centennial Park, Paddington, Darlinghust, Moore Park, Potts Point, Kings Cross and Rushcutters Bay are old extremely working class areas that have become highly gentrified since the 1980s, with the working classes moving out of the area over this time. The landscape in these areas is dominated by overhanging trees and renovated terrace houses.
Further south of all of these areas are the working class areas that are becoming progressively more middle class, of South Coogee, Maroubra, Malabar, Little Bay and La Perouse. These areas are often known as the "South-Eastern Suburbs" of Sydney. The southern parts around
Randwick,
Kingsford and
Maroubra are more
middle and
working class, still have an Anglo majority but also contain large
Greek,
Indonesian and
Chinese communities.
The region is marked by the predominance of medium and high density housing, especially in the northern parts. The Eastern Suburbs of Sydney extends from the peninsula of South Head at Watsons Bay in the north to La Perouse in the South. The Eastern Suburbs include some of Sydney's well-known beaches such as
Bondi Beach and
Maroubra Beach.
Recently there has been a significant inlux of Asian immigrants into the Eastern Suburbs. Notably from
China and
Indonesia. This is due to the large numbers of university students from Asian backgrounds attending
UNSW.
