Chatswood

A suburb located on the lower north shore and the common meeting and mating ground for Private school and public school plebians. Some may partake in the Asian side of Chatswood (which is literally all of Chatswood) whilst others loiter in dodgy parks. Recently, Chatswood has started trying to become bigger as to steal Macquarie Shopping Centres' spotlight.
Literally every train goes there, so it is always a meeting spot and a very common date spot with your Korean cafes, the underground library and Chinese hotpots.

Common name it goes by includes Chatswong and for private school kids: chatty.

Kids try to exploit the system of the cheap pool tables in Strike and the secret korean karaoke centre.
Privvy: Hey meet in chatty later?
Pleb: Chatswood?
Privvy: yea, lets go karaoke at that korean place and then go hotpot
