About Diamondy

Diamondy is a rural locality in the Western Downs Region, Queensland, situated west of Jandowae on the Darling Downs, approximately 240 kilometres north-west of Brisbane. Covering some 352 square kilometres of Darling Downs grazing country, the locality's eastern boundary runs along the Craig Range, part of the Great Dividing Range. The 2021 Census recorded a population of 72 residents, reflective of its character as a sparsely populated rural landscape dominated by cattle grazing and broadacre farming under the Western Downs Regional Council.

The Diamondy area is embedded in the agricultural heartland of the Darling Downs, with the surrounding landscape shaped by cattle properties, grazing on native vegetation, and the rhythms of rural Queensland life. The nearby town of Jandowae — approximately 20 kilometres away — serves as the closest service centre, offering basic amenities, a pub, and community facilities. Life in Diamondy is quintessentially country Queensland: wide open spaces, farming community bonds, and access to the broader Darling Downs region via the Western Downs road network.

Diamondy falls under postcode 4410 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Callide electorate.
