Hi Yaa,
We moved to Sydney back in February. My wife and I created a blog to help others with a similar transition. The url is www.ozliving.blogspot.com
Not sure if it will be useful.
Rgds,
Brad

: Welcome to Sydney!
: The areas that you list are good & safe
: areas. The downside about Castle Hill is
: that public transport is lacking & the
: road system is congested.
: Pennant Hills puts you on a train line to
: the city so you can avoid the crush of the
: road system (not that the train system is
: perfect here!). Some other good areas along
: that train line are Epping and Liberty
: Grove.
: Good luck!
