Fairfield East is located 28 kilometers west of the Sydney central business district; it is in the local government area of the City of Fairfield and is part of the Greater Western Sydney region. Fairfield East shares its 2165 postcode with the separate suburbs of Fairfield Heights, Fairfield West and Fairfield.

Fairfield East got its name from its neighbour Fairfield, which in turn was named after Captain John Horsley’s family estate in England.The area was once home to the Darug Aboriginal people. In the early 19th century the British settlers moved in using the land for farming.

The area known as Fairfield East was, in the 1870′s part of two large properties Orchard Leigh in the north which extended towards Guildford and Mark Lodge to the south which encompassed Carramar, Villawood and parts of Fairfield.

Orchardleigh was subdivided for housing in 1876 with Mark Lodge also being subdivided in 1885; this opened the countryside up from farming to suburbia.
