About this data
- Playgrounds come from OpenStreetMap (leisure=playground). Equipment is linked only when a separately mapped item sits inside the playground’s mapped area, or the playground itself lists it.
- Fencing and shade are almost never recorded in OpenStreetMap for Australian playgrounds (fewer than 0.1% nationally). “Not recorded” does not mean “no fence” or “no shade”.
- We do not rate safety, suitability for an age group, popularity or cleanliness. Ages are shown only as the mapper tagged them.
- Playgrounds inside mapped school, kindergarten or childcare grounds, and those tagged private or customers-only, are not listed.
OpenStreetMap snapshot 9 Nov 2026 (Geofabrik extracts). Areas: ABS ASGS Edition 4 (2026); suburbs and localities are ABS approximations, not legal boundaries. Most recent edit among these records: 8 Oct 2026. How we build this guide.
