Baulkham Hills Shire, now renamed to "The Hills Shire" is a local government area in the north western region of Sydney, Australia. Known as "The Garden Shire", it is an area of rolling hills, bushland (such as the beautiful Bidjigal Reserve), market gardens and urban sprawl and is one of the most rapidly growing local government areas in Australia. [1]
In past years, Baulkham Hills Shire has attracted a large number of 'upwardly mobile', young families seeking a less congested living environment. This has led to the construction of a large number of project homes dubbed 'McMansions'earlier this decade, and as a result the residents typically have heavy mortgage commitments.Mortgagee repossessions are becoming increasingly common in the area and as a collateral problem fuel prices and lack of railway infrastructure is forcing people to reconsider the significant distance from the Sydney Central Business District. It is hoped that the long awaited rail link into the area will ease the public transport and traffic problems plaguing the area. An associated phenomenon is the considerable influence of evangelical Christianity in the area, most notably by the Hillsong Church. This has led to Baulkham Hills Shire sometimes being dubbed the 'Bible Belt' of Sydney. [1]
