A shopping and transport hub on the north shore, and a place designed for families.
Hornsby 2077
Welcome to suburbia. Hornsby is your average kinda Sydney north shore suburb. Except it has a huge Westfield shopping complex, plenty of transport and is a child care hub. It is functional and practical, has lovely tree-lined streets, people who mow their lawns, and is next to some upmarket shi-shi badda bling suburbs with expensive private schools. It is essentially family and young professionals territory. (More information below...) > HONRSBY ON NORTH SHORE MAP > HORNSBY MAP > TRANSPORT, GETTING HERE > DISTANCES FROM HORNSBY TO...
