Usage note: In Australia suburbs are the official postal subdivisions of a city. Inner suburbs are subdivisions within the denser urban areas of the cities and outer suburbs are the postal divisions found in the outer rings of the metropolitan areas, and usually lying within the boundaries of a separate municipality. This differs from British and North American usage, in which the term "suburb" is never applied to central neighbourhoods.

Sydney has about 38 local government areas (see related category), each consisting of several suburbs. Areas that are not strictly suburbs (i.e. are uninhabited, were former suburbs, or lie within suburbs) are found in the Sydney localities category.

For more information, see the article about List of Sydney suburbs.
