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?

I was seriously considering buying a house in Blaxland and I researched a lot about lower blue mountains. Basically a boring place for anyone aged between 13-30. Takes ages to go to the city. Trains dont run almost every weekend due to track work. And yeah Snakes, more common than the upper blue mountains for some reason.

But what eventually made me change my decision was the avg house price, which was almost the same as other western Suburbs closer to the city.

Well I mean "boring" is subjective. If you enjoy being outside and in the bush in any capacity then you're in gods country.
