Croydon Park is a north-western suburb of Adelaide 7 km from the CBD, in the state of South Australia, Australia and is within the City of Port Adelaide Enfield. It is adjacent to Dudley Park, Devon Park, Renown Park, Regency Park, Ferryden Park Kilkenny, and West Croydon. The post code for Croydon Park is 5008. It is bounded to the south by Lamont Street and Torrens Road, to the north by Regency Road and in the east and west by Harrison Road and Goodall Avenue respectively. Croydon Park is predominantly a residential suburb, with a warehousing presence on the northern edges near Regency Road.

The suburb is not served by a public primary school. Croydon Park Primary School was closed at the end of 1997 due to declining enrolments. The former site at Hudson Avenue was later developed into housing. The closest primary schools are Challa Gardens Primary School, to the west in Kilkenny, or Brompton Primary School in Brompton. However, St. Margaret Mary's, a Catholic primary school operates within the suburb. The local high school was Croydon High School (closed 2007), in adjacent West Croydon. The Douglas Mawson Institute of TAFE is located on the western end of the suburb. Polonia Reserve, the base of State League football (soccer) team Croydon Kings is located on the eastern side of Croydon Park.As of 2011 Census, Croydon Park had a population of 3,998: 49.7% female and 50.3% male. The median age of the Croydon Park population was 36 years, 1 year below the national median of 37. 47.5% of people living in Croydon Park were born in Australia. The other top responses for country of birth were Vietnam 10.4%, India 4.8%, Greece 2.9%, Italy 2.8%, China 2.1%.The Croydon Park area was originally a post war returned soldier housing estate. It subsequently attracted waves of European immigration. Over time, the children of these immigrants have largely vacated the area, leaving a relatively elderly population. This is reflected in the declining enrolment rates at nearby schools, with Croydon Park Primary School and Croydon Primary School in the nearby suburb of Croydon, both being closed at the end of 1997. Today however, the area has started to attract interest from many home buyers due to its close proximity to the CBD.
