Minchinbury, Residential suburb in western Sydney, Australia.

Minchinbury spans across residential zones and industrial areas, positioned 38 kilometers west of Sydney central business district at 48 meters elevation.

Captain William Minchin received 1,000 acres of land in 1819 from Governor Lachlan Macquarie, establishing the foundation of the current suburb.

The population includes a mix of Australian, English, and Filipino residents, with Western Roman Catholic, Islamic, and Anglican religious communities present.

The suburb connects to Sydney through the Great Western Highway, M4 Motorway, and regular bus services to Mount Druitt and Blacktown.

Streets throughout Minchinbury carry names related to wines and wineries, reflecting its past as a major wine-producing region under Penfolds until 1978.
