Abstract
- Dangar Island, located in the Hawkesbury River north of Sydney, offers a unique and supportive community for its residents. While the island's small size and close-knit community can sometimes feel intense, it also fosters a sense of kinship and connection. The island's natural beauty, affordability, and proximity to Sydney's CBD have attracted new residents, leading to an increase in property prices. Living on the island requires resilience and adaptability, as residents must navigate strong tides, boat-sinking storms, and flash flooding. Despite the challenges, Dangar Island provides an opportunity to be part of a connected community in an era of heightened social isolation. [Extracted from the article]
