Croydon was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of Queensland from 1893 to 1912.[1]

Based in the remote western part of the state, it was first created for the 1893 colonial election out of the district of Burke when that ceased to be a two-member electorate. The district was abolished for the 1912 state election and divided between the districts of Burke and Flinders.
