Hornsby is the fifth best place to live in Australia, apparently.
At least, according to a study SGS Economics and Planning:
"Sydney’s Northern beaches ranks as the highest in the nation for wellbeing, with only one Queensland city making it to the top 10, the annual index revealed today.
“The Australian Capital Territory came in second due to its low gender wage gaps, climate change risks and the division of wealth.”
The study assessed 518 local council areas on seven indicators:
* economy
* income and wealth
* employment, knowledge and skills
* housing
* health
* equality, community and work-life balance
* environment
The top 10 local government areas are:
-
Northern Beaches (Greater Sydney)
-
Australian Capital Territory
-
North Sydney (Greater Sydney)
-
Ku-ring-gai (Greater Sydney)
-
Hornsby (Greater Sydney)
