About Bocobra

Bocobra is a small rural locality in the Central Tablelands of New South Wales, situated in the electorate of Orange with a postcode shared with the Molong area. Covering approximately 101 square kilometres, it had a population of just 60 residents at the 2021 census. The terrain is typical of the Central Western Slopes and Plains, with rolling farmland used for cropping and grazing. It lies roughly 30–40 kilometres from Orange, the nearest significant regional centre in the area.

The Bocobra community is deeply rural, with farming and grazing as the primary occupations of residents. The surrounding landscape offers scenic pastoral vistas, and those who call it home generally value the quiet, uncrowded nature of country living. Orange, with its excellent dining, arts scene, and full range of services, is the go-to hub for shopping, healthcare, and education. The area also benefits from proximity to Molong, a historic rural town with a charming main street, hotel, and essential services.

Bocobra falls under postcode 2865 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Orange electorate.
