Sutherland Shire is a local government area in the southern region of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. The Sutherland Shire is located just south of the Sydney CBD, and comprises an area of 370 square kilometres (140 sq mi) and as at the 2016 census and has an estimated population of 218,464.[1] The Sutherland Shire is colloquially known as "The Shire" which has been featured in several reality television series.
Geographically, it is the area to the south of Botany Bay and the Georges River. The Sutherland Shire is 26 kilometres (16 mi) south of Sydney central business district, and is bordered by the Bayside Council, City of Canterbury-Bankstown, City of Wollongong, City of Liverpool, Georges River Council and City of Campbelltown local government areas.
The administrative centre of the local government area is located in the suburb of Sutherland, with the council chambers located in Eton Street. As of 10 January 2022 the mayor of the Sutherland Shire is Cr. Carmelo Pesce, a Liberal.[3]
The Sutherland Shire contains what was the first landing site of Lieutenant James Cook, who went ashore onto what is now the suburb of Kurnell on 29 April 1770. It was originally intended to be the site of the first British Settlement, before Sydney Cove was chosen as the location during the First Fleet.[4]
