Part of the Macarthur region, Campbelltown is bounded on one side by the Georges River and on the other by rolling hills and offers a combination of city and country living. Situated on the lands of the Dharawal tribe, Campbelltown is home to over 140,000 people and over a quarter of them were born overseas.
Cultural facilities in the area include the highly regarded Campbelltown Arts Centre which also houses the Japanese Gardens and Teahouse, and a Sculpture Garden.
