Based on community discussions and reports, the highest density of this subculture is often found in the following areas:
Western Sydney: Frequently cited areas include Mount Druitt, Blacktown, Liverpool, Parramatta, and Penrith.
Inner South/West: The subculture originated in areas such as Tempe, Sydenham, and St Peters in the early 1990s.
Transit Hubs: Eshays are commonly found loitering around suburban train stations and shopping centers, particularly along the T8 airport/south line and lines heading to Western Sydney.
While historically rooted in specific working-class suburbs, the fashion and aesthetic have become more widespread across Sydney, appearing in outer-ring suburbs and occasionally in other areas, according to various reports.
