Jordan Springs is a modern and growing suburb located in the big city of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. It's a great place to live, with homes, parks, and shops.

About Jordan Springs

Jordan Springs is about 53 kilometers (around 33 miles) west of the very center of Sydney. This means it's far enough from the busy city heart to feel peaceful, but still close enough to visit easily. It's part of the City of Penrith, which is a local government area. Think of a local government area as a council that helps manage services for the community, like roads and parks.

When Jordan Springs Began

The name "Jordan Springs" was officially registered in 2011. This means it became a recognized suburb at that time. Before that, the land might have been used for other things or been part of a different area.

How the Suburb Grew

In November 2019, Jordan Springs got a bit bigger! Its eastern side expanded to include an area near a place called South Creek. This new part used to be part of the suburb of Llandilo. This expansion helped Jordan Springs grow and welcome more people.
