Croydon was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of New South Wales, created in 1927, with the abolition of proportional representation from part of the multi-member electorate of Western Suburbs, and named after and including the Sydney suburb of Croydon. It was abolished in 1959 and partly combined with Ashfield to create Ashfield-Croydon.[1][2][3][4]
