North Shore (Sydney)
The North Shore is a primarily residential upper middle class area of northern metropolitan Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Since it is not clearly defined, there is some variation in its geographical limits. It usually includes the north shore of Sydney Harbour between Middle Harbour and the Lane Cove River, up to the northern border of the Ku-ring-gai local government area; less commonly, suburbs further west to the Ryde Bridge are also included, although this would also include what is known as the Northern Suburbs which is a separate locality.
