Camellia lies approximately 18 km west of the Sydney central business district within the City of Parramatta local government area. The suburb covers approximately 3.7 square kilometres and sits at an elevation of 8 metres above sea level.

At the 2021 Census, Rosehill recorded a population of approximately 3,806 people, with a median age of 32 years, indicating a predominance of young adults and steady family growth. Cultural diversity is significant: approximately 30 per cent of residents were born in Australia, with sizable communities from India (30 per cent), China (6 per cent), Lebanon and the Philippines. The linguistic landscape reflects this mix, with Gujarati, Arabic, Hindi, Mandarin and Punjabi each spoken in over 4 per cent of households.

Public transport is evolving: Rosehill railway station, on the former Carlingford line, closed in January 2020, with bus route M92 linking to Parramatta and Sutherland. Future transit will include the planned Rosehill Metro West station at the racecourse site, part of the Sydney Metro West project, which is scheduled for completion around 2032. However, the membership voted against residential redevelopment in 2025.

Essential services are centred respectively in nearby Parramatta and Camellia, offering supermarkets, banks, medical clinics and dining options. Within Rosehill, Rosehill Public School anchors the educational landscape, and recreational options include the historic Elizabeth Farm (established in 1793) and Rosehill Gardens Racecourse, which hosts major racing events.

Heritage-listed sites include Comfort Lodge, Camden, and the Elizabeth Farm Reserve, reflecting the suburb’s colonial-era depth. Parks and open spaces provide amenity, though most daily recreation occurs in adjacent Parramatta Park or along the Parramatta River corridor.
