Kangy Angy (/kæŋi æŋi/) is a quiet area with farms and open spaces. It is a suburb located in the Central Coast region of New South Wales, Australia. This area sits in a small valley next to Ourimbah Creek and the Pacific Highway. It is managed by the Central Coast Council local government area.
Kangy Angy was once home to a part of the Great North Road. This old road was built by convicts a long time ago. It was an important path over hills, connecting big cities like Sydney and Newcastle. Later, new roads were built, making travel easier.
