Jordan Springs, NSW 2747

It is a vibrant place, with families and young children fully utilizing the parks, lakes, sports grounds, basketball courts, and much more. There are a few restaurants and a pub with good food and a nice vibe. There is a newly built primary school with excellent facilities and great teachers. The well-regarded Xavier College is adjacent to the suburb (the back door of the college is located in Jordan Springs). You can drive to Penrith CBD and Nepean Hospital in around 10 minutes.

I have personally visited Jordan Springs on many occasions for personal & business . A very good main local shopping centre with supermarket, medical centre, cafes and restaurants
• Access to local schools, family friendly parks, walking and bicycle tracks
• Approximately 5km to the Penrith Central Business District, Railway Station, Nepean Private and Public Hospitals
• Approximately 6km to the M4 Motorway
• And will only be approximately 17km to the new Western Sydney Airport.

Well planned suburb with 2 Lakes and amazing views.
2 Dog parks and atleast 7 diffrent parks for kids to play.
Nice Lil shopping centre with 3 cafes and 6-8 different restaurants.
7 mins drive to Penrith station ( From there 48 mins train to City)
New Primary school with amazing teachers and infrastructure.
Overall a good family oriented community

Wonderful place for kids.

We've been living in this suburb for 2 years now. We are growing two children. Feel so nice and cozy as soon as we enter the suburb. We have all greeneries, 2 beautiful lakes along with walking trails, shopping village, sports grounds, parks. Kids started going to the new school from last year and it is feels great.

I moved here about almost 1.5year ago. No complaints at all.

I am impressed that people are good with good community spirit. This area has high owner occupiers and not many houses to sell on the market. Like any other suburbs, all good quality home are easily sold out or under offer when it pop up on the market. It took a while for me to get a great one with decent land size.
I do think that if you are a first home buyer with tight budget, this might not be a right place because you will end up having the basic quality home with little land (like investment property) .
If you want to raise a young family, this is the right place. A new primary school has been opened and everything is accessible within 10 mins even the Westfield shopping mall and station. Overall,Moving here to Jordan springs is the best decision ever

Its the best decision we have made to make a move to Jordan springs.. So many parks, woolies, GP and everything is at doorstep!
Penrith Westfield is 5 minutes drive and so many options for dinning out and outdoor activities!
We couldn't be happier!!

Checked out new houses with friends looking for first home in this area.

Cons:
- Houses feel like "bigger units" and built in cheap materials. You can pretty much touch your neighbours house from yours :D.
- No privacy for houses as distance between houses are literally the same as you lived in units!
- Roads feel like paths, they are so narrow.
- So congested and artificial.

Pros:
- Houses are cheap for a reason

We have been here almost a year in JS. Beautiful suburb. Very impressed by local restaurant and cafes. Primary school and childcare with great small shopping complex where we get everything we need. Enjoy the evening walk in lakeside. Our house is 7 year old located in Jordan Springs. 10 mins drive to train station and Westfield shopping mall.
There is new development area in J.S East in Llandilo not sure about that area. But Jordan Springs itself is beautiful and nil issue at all.

Now that me and my family have lived in Jordan Springsfor few years, there's not a thing I can think of complaining about. Nice family people all around- professionals, traders, old age folks; so you can expect a good crowd. Dog lovers too have a special place here! Lots of greenery, easy driving distance to Blue Mountains, a lake of our own, and good lawn fronts. Great neighbors from varying background cultures are all so friendly in our street.

The little market there is all you will probably want for your daily needs, and Penrith's "Westfield" is like 15 mins drive. There is a new school operating now, and they have setup some great infrastructure. I am not sure about ratings though.

Never faced the issue with security too. Some of the instances being reported about people from neighboring suburb being bin raiders or parcel raiders (or even car jackers) is something that is being a city wide problem more than the suburb based issue. I mean a$$e$ are everywhere, and there's nothing specifically alarming about it in this suburb.

If there are true negatives, they are minor for me (to others they may be more critical): lack of train station (nearest ones of Kingswood and Penrith are both 3KM drive), lack of proper bakery (its about 2 km drive to the one near Aldi), some tossers (again more of a nation-wide problem than suburb specific), and some streets being congested with curb side parking both ways.

So if you are on house hunt and thinking about JS to settle, lay your doubts to rest. Welcome to this little world and keep it clean.
