Ruse is a suburb of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Ruse is located 52 kilometres south-west of the Sydney central business district, in the local government area of the City of Campbelltown.

History

Ruse was named after James Ruse, known as Australia's first farmer. Prior to the 1960s, the area was part of Kentlyn and mostly farm and bushland. The area was then declared open for development and turned into a residential housing estate. It was at this time the name Ruse was proclaimed. Other names were suggested, such as Fisher and Marlow, however the mayor of the day overturned these.
