About Brungle Creek

Brungle Creek is a small rural locality in the Riverina region of New South Wales, near the township of Tumut, sharing the postcode 2722. Covering nearly 60 square kilometres of farming country along the western foothills of the Snowy Mountains, the area had a recorded population of just 28 people at the 2021 Census, making it one of the more sparsely settled localities in the region. The area sits within the federal electorate of Riverina and the state electorate of Wagga Wagga.

Brungle Creek is closely linked to the broader Brungle community, which has deep historical ties to the Waradajhi people of the Wiradjuri Nation. Agriculture — particularly livestock grazing and cropping — underpins the local economy, and residents enjoy a quiet, nature-rich lifestyle surrounded by the rolling countryside of the Snowy Mountains foothills. The nearby Brungle Public School serves the local Aboriginal and farming community, and a health and community centre in Brungle provides essential services to residents across the Tumut area.

Brungle Creek falls under postcode 2722 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Wagga Wagga electorate.
