It is located in the City of Charles Sturt. GeographyThe suburb lies at the western end of Grand Junction Road, which also forms its northern boundary. It is bordered to the east by Hanson Road, to the west by Glenroy Street, to the east by Hanson Rd, with Hamilton Road forming the bulk of its southern boundary.[6] The southern portion of Athol Park is residential with a light industrial area in the north. The suburb is home to a large number of Housing Trust homes. In the 1990s, plans were made for the Westwood Urban Renewal project, of which Ferryden Park, Angle Park, Woodville Gardens, and Mansfield Park were also a part. This involved replacing the Housing Trust homes with either private housing or a new townhouse-style housing trust homes.{{citation needed|date=June 2011}} DemographicsThe 2006 Census by the Australian Bureau of Statistics counted 1,307 persons in Athol Park on census night.
