Liveability in Western Sydney: Comparative Analysis of 14 Liveability Indicators for Local Government Areas in the WestInvest Program and the Greater Sydney Region dataset

In September 2021, the NSW Government announced the $5 billion WestInvest Program, designed to fund transformational infrastructure projects that support community amenity and liveability. In January 2022, the NSW Government commissioned the Centre for Western Sydney (Western Sydney University) to undertake a review of existing liveability data sources, and identify and define a set of macro (high level) metrics for the elements of liveability which are likely be impacted by the WestInvest Program. This report provides the outcome of a resulting study which identified 14 liveability metrics and assessed potential liveability outcomes of the WestInvest Program for the 15 WestInvest LGAs, the WestInvest region as a whole and the Greater Sydney region.
