City of Penrith, Local government area in Western Sydney, Australia.

The City of Penrith extends across 404 square kilometers of land along the Nepean River, encompassing residential neighborhoods and commercial districts near the Blue Mountains.

In 1949, Penrith municipality merged with St Marys, Castlereagh, and portions of Nepean Shire, leading to its declaration as a city on October 21, 1959.

The area acknowledges the Darug and Gundungarra peoples as traditional custodians, with Aboriginal communities representing five percent of the current population.

The Penrith City Council headquarters at the Civic Centre manages municipal services for over 217,000 residents through designated administrative departments.

The council maintains international relationships through sister city agreements with Fujieda City in Japan and Penrith in Cumbria, England.
