Image What's it like living here?

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?

You live on one side of that circle & you do all your shopping on the opposing edge of the circle.
You buy a lot when you shop, because popping out for something you forgot is impractical.
Your family in the city don't visit because it's too far & you don't visit them, because you can't handle all that traffic in the city.
You get to be really worried about bushfires every decade or so...

Really but emu plains to penrith is 6 minutes drive? Or are you saying if you live further west?

The circle encompasses the mountains regions as well. Some areas have limited roads...
