About The Slopes
The Slopes is a small rural locality situated approximately 72 kilometres north-west of Sydney in the City of Hawkesbury, nestled in the foothills of the Blue Mountains. With a 2021 Census population of 327 residents across just 3.5 square kilometres, the locality has a quiet, semi-rural character surrounded by farmland and bushland typical of the greater Hawkesbury region. Median household income is close to the national average, reflecting a mix of rural families and those commuting to nearby urban centres.
The Slopes sits near larger Hawkesbury communities including Kurrajong and Richmond, which offer supermarkets, schools, cafes, and essential services within a short drive. Windsor — the historic commercial heart of the Hawkesbury — is also readily accessible and provides train services on the T1 Western Line into Sydney. The locality appeals to residents who value a quiet rural setting within the greater Sydney basin, with the scenic Blue Mountains foothills forming a picturesque backdrop.
The Slopes falls under postcode 2754 and is governed by the Hawkesbury Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Macquarie, while state elections fall under the Hawkesbury electorate.
