How we calculated this
Times reflect typical off-peak public-transport journeys from Hills Showground. Walking time from your door to the station is not included. Real journeys vary by time of day, line disruptions, and where your workplace actually sits. For a specific trip, check the TfNSW Trip Planner.
For buyers considering Norwest as a live-work balance play, the commute data should be read alongside the remote work context. A suburb with a 40-minute public transport commute may be entirely acceptable if you are in the office two or three days per week.
