Parramatta
Sydney's second CBD · 25 min train to central · Metro Light Rail through the centre
Dense high-rise apartment market driven by students, young professionals and migration-agent-placed tenants. The Western Sydney University campus + courts + hospitals all draw renters who never see the place before signing.
