Blacktown

"Close to everything"

Blacktown is a suburb with everything. Great shopping, libraries, hospital, schools and everything else - you barely need to leave your own suburb for anything. Thousands of jobs in the area. Not that safe though, and quite noisy. Yet the suburb has some very affordable houses.

The houses are old, and the traffic not good, but very affordable.

Kings Park

"Fairly ordinary"

Nothing more than an average suburb to live in. As long as you stay away from the industrial areas in the south, Kings Park can provide a moderately desirable suburb with a mix of some older and newer houses. It is fair to say that it is much cheaper than nearby Kings Langley or Glenwood, but still maintains a close location to the whole host of services - and is perhaps just a bit less green and with a lesser atmosphere.

Kings Langley

"Best suburb in NSW"

Kings Langley is a suburb that is truely close to everything.

It is close to the M7, M4 and M2 motorways which connect you to all major cities in the Sydney suburbs. The Busways route 718 goes from Kings Langley to Seven Hills, where there is a railway station and shops. The Hills bus route T61 takes advantage of the new Transit way and can get you from Kings Langley to either Blacktown or Parramatta in less than 20 minutes, where you can find major shopping centers, railway stations, hospitals and plenty of work opportunities.

There are several shopping centers in and around Kings Langley. Kings Langley Shopping centre features a Coles and Woolworths supermarket, liquor shop, Post office, TAB, award winning butcher Mardon Meats, newsagency and a whole host of specialty stores. Solander Centre offers an independent supermarket, pharmacy, newsagency and a great take away shop. Just across Old Windsor Road is a new retail precedent called Circa. At the moment, it is home to a Woolworths supermarket and several specialty stores, but will soon become a major shopping centre. 2 kms away from Kings Langley is Seven Hills shopping centre featuring Coles, Woolworths and Aldi. Westpoint Blacktown is the major shopping centre in the area, with 4 levels of shopping.

There are several doctors and dentists in Kings Langley, as well as a physiotherapist and several optometrists. The new Norwest Private Hospital is located near Circa, and Blacktown Public Hospital is close as well.

Vardy's Road Primary and Kings Langley Public School are among the best K-6 schools in the district, but unfortunately there is no high school in Kings Langley. Most parents choose to get their high school students educated at nearby Seven Hills High, Crestwood High or Model Farms High.

An Adventist aged care facility has been established on the west side of Kings Langley and close to the shopping centre. Kings Langley offers several large parks with play equipment and sporting grounds. All streets are quiet, and the Westlink M7 won't bother you as long as you are a good 100m away from it. There are plenty of Cycle-ways for the cycling or walking enthusiast.

All services are underground and the area is far away from airports, railway tracks and rubbish dumps. Houses are reasonably priced, but are on the rise at the moment. All in all, great suburb for anyone.
