Why dose Apple community find my location in Sydney, however the iMmap on my iMac is totally correct?
is there something I should be concerned about if there is such a 1/2 continent wide discrepancy.
iMac 21.5″, macOS 12.7
I see your profile says Kangaroo Island (which I believe is indeed in Sydney). That is information that you must have entered yourself. Apple does not enter profile information. If you want to change this go to Stuart@KI’s Profile - Apple Community
As for the Mac location, I see you have an iMac. That does not have GPS, so you location is based on the IP address though your Internet service provider. If they have their headquarters in another city, it may report the service provider's location and not where you are located. If you're using a VPN, the location could be the VPN server's location.

Can you give us more details? Does your profile in the Apple Community state, that Sydney is your location?
If yes, you can edit this information if you go to your profile page -> View Profile
Safari / other services inaccuracy.
