Carlton is a suburb in southern Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Carlton is located 15 kilometres south of the Sydney central business district and is part of the St George area. Carlton lies across the boundary of two local government areas, the Municipality of Kogarah and the City of Rockdale.

Carlton was named after a suburb in Nottingham, England. The name means ‘a village of free men'.

The area was originally heavily timbered. Carlton was part of a grant of 1,950 acres (7.9 km2) made to Captain John Townson in 1808. The grant extended from King Georges Road and Stoney Creek Road to beyond Kogarah railway station. When the railway line to Hurstville was opened in 1884, large estates were subdivided and residents began moving in. However, there was no platform at Carlton until 1889. Landholders were given a block of land free if they contributed 400 pounds to finance the construction of the platform and station buildings. They were also guaranteed a first class ticket to Sydney for one year. Carlton also has two school's Carlton Public School and Carlton South Public School.

    Me dicen que el "acto" de Llorente en el Carlton serà para promocionar las peras de Rincón de Soto (su pueblo). Nada sobre su futuro.
