Default Campden to Waterloo commute

Does anyone here do or has done the Camden to Waterloo or CBD commute. I'm looking at areas and would prefer to be a reasonable way out of the city, as I am now in South Bucks. But a reasonable commute in. The tools I've used say an hours drive, is this correct or is it seriously longer/shorter?

Also I would be interested in any suggestions of nice family areas a similar distance from Sydney.

thanks

Julian

Hmmm. Non-peak hour you can do Eastern Suburbs to Camden in about 50 minutes - so add a bit more to the city and an hour would be about right. BUT, that's non-peak hour. I hate to think how long it would take then, at least an hour and a half probably.
I know traffic on the M6(?) crawls along on a Friday afternoon from about 4pm onwards - which is the only time I've ever headed out that way during the peak traffic.

Good family areas? Try the Sutherland area or Hills district. Camden is OK but a very long way out and it gets very warm there in the summer. There's a huge amount of development that way and the small country town feel that it used to have, is going fast.
