South-Eastern Sydney

South-Eastern Sydney is the metropolitan area directly to the south and east of the Sydney central business district in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

The area stretches from the inner city to the foreshores of Botany Bay. It includes suburbs within the local government areas of the City of Sydney, Randwick and the part of Bayside Council east of Sydney Airport. It roughly corresponds to the Parish of Botany, a cadastral unit used for land titles.

In a wider sense, "South-Eastern Sydney" sometimes includes the neighbouring St George region to the west. In some contexts, the term is used for an even larger area stretching further south to include the Sutherland Shire.

Politically, this area falls neatly within the federal division of Kingsford Smith. At both state and federal levels southeastern Sydney is a stronghold for the Australian Labor Party, despite the area's relative affluence.

The Eastern Distributor provides access from the northern part of the Sydney CBD to the southeastern suburbs.[1]
