Central Coast in New South Wales is located on the Pacific between Sydney and Newcastle. The area is a collection of towns that have been amalgamated due to expansion into one urban centre.
Because of it's proximity to Sydney (around 70 kilometres) many people who work in the state capital live in Central Coast and commute. In addition to this it is also a popular location for retirees. These factors mean that the area does not have a great deal of local industry apart from tourism.
