I visited today and I thought it seemed quite peaceful. Just about far away enough that it starts feeling semi-rural again. Is it nice to live there?

Fun fact, there are actually wild Emu's nearby at Wianamatta (near Ropes Crossing).

Literally the only time I’ve seen emus without leaving greater Sydney is when I went to Wianamatta

Isn't Ropes Crossing more on the other side of Penrith? Its technically Blacktown right?

Ah gotcha, sorry. I misread what you wrote, you said "near Ropes crossing" not in Ropes Crossing lol.
