*The Western Sydney Regional Organisation Of Councils (WSROC) comprises 10 LGA's in the western part of Sydney: Auburn City, Bankstown City, Blacktown City, Blue Mountains City, Fairfield City, Hawkesbury City, Holroyd City, Liverpool City, Parramatta City and Penrith City.

What this tells us is that although in the Blacktown (C) Region, High Density living is by far the least common, it is on the rise, while Seperate House is on the decline...at least slightly.

What is also worth noting is the Yields that these types of dwellings are currently fetching.
