Parks and open space

The Jacksons Creek valley cuts through Sunbury, giving the township a genuine green spine with trails, reserves and heritage sites along its length.

Shops and services

Sunbury Square and Evans Street shops cover day to day shopping, cafes and services, with larger centres a short drive south.

Recreation

Jacksons Creek valley, Sunbury Aquatic and Leisure Centre, Macedon Ranges beyond.

Family first

The suburb of Sunbury has a median age of 38 and an average household size of 2.6 people (ABS Census 2021), which is why so much of the local sport and recreation is built around families.

A town centre to come

If and when the Sunbury West precinct is planned, a local town centre would be part of that plan. Its location, size and timing are not yet known.

Macedon Ranges on the doorstep

North west of the township the landscape changes quickly into the wineries, ranges and day trip towns of the Macedon Ranges.
