The cheaper stations are a short drive out
Across September 2026 the stations within 5 km of Blacktown averaged about 2¢/L above the Sydney metro average, while the wider 10 km area sat roughly level with it. Smithfield to the south was the stand-out, its six stations averaging around 17¢/L under the area average, and Doonside and Pendle Hill also ran cheaper. Seven Hills and Quakers Hill ran dearer.
