Wheeler Heights[2] is a suburb of Northern Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Wheeler Heights[3] is located 22 kilometres north-east of the Sydney central business district, in the local government area of Northern Beaches Council[4] and is part of the Northern Beaches region. Wheeler Heights was designated as a separate suburb in 1977 with a postcode of 2097 but was reassigned as a locality within Collaroy in 1984. In 2001, all localities were renamed Urban Places. In 2011, Wheeler Heights, along with Collaroy Plateau, was re-established as a suburb by the Geographical Names Board of NSW, after lobbying by the community, who had never ceased considering it to be a suburb since its loss of that title in 1984.
