The suburb is bounded by Canning Highway to the west, Berwick Street to the north, Kent Street to the east, and Hayman Road and South Terrace to the south.
The suburb was named after the Kensington Park racecourse which, in turn, was most likely named after the prestigious London suburb of Kensington.
