It’s not like its somewhere like Blacktown, Mount Druitt or Punchbowl that has been historically considered ‘rough’ even if the locals don’t agree.

The dumb thing is properties that are currently in both Homebush and Homebush West are so far away from Strathfield station and the surrounding shops.
