SMH (Australia) - SUBURBS on Sydney's fringe with poor public transport are the hardest hit by the triple whammy of rising mortgage expenses, high petrol prices and inflation.
A Griffith University study has found the most financially vulnerable suburbs of Sydney were Cranebrook, Emu Heights and Erskine Park in the west and Currans Hill in the south.
The stress was most pronounced in the greater western region stretching from the Hills District in the north to Sutherland in the south, Camden in the south-west and the lower Blue Mountains in the west.
