About Alumy Creek

Alumy Creek is a small rural locality in the Clarence Valley of northern New South Wales, in the Page federal electorate, sharing postcode 2460 with Grafton and the surrounding Clarence Valley district. The locality covers 9.1 square kilometres and recorded a population of 86 at the 2021 census, comprising farming families and rural-residential residents in the rolling hills and creek valleys north of the Clarence River. The area takes its name from the Alumy Creek, a small watercourse flowing through the locality's forested hinterland. The Clarence Valley's warm subtropical climate, fertile soils and natural beauty characterise the region.

Alumy Creek's residents enjoy a quiet rural lifestyle within reach of the Clarence Valley's services and natural assets. Grafton — the principal service centre for the Clarence Valley — provides supermarkets, the local health service, schools and NSW TrainLink connections approximately 40–60 kilometres to the south, while the coastal towns of Yamba and Maclean are accessible to the east. The Clarence River system offers excellent fishing, kayaking and wildlife observation, and the region's hinterland is popular with eco-tourists and nature lovers exploring the forested ranges. The broader Northern Rivers region is celebrated for its subtropical beauty, alternative community culture and increasing appeal as a destination for Sydney and Brisbane tree-changers.

Alumy Creek falls under postcode 2460 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Northern Tablelands electorate.
