About Euston

Euston is a small riverside town in far south-western New South Wales, situated on the banks of the Murray River within the Balranald Shire local government area. With a population of 822 at the 2021 census, it sits directly opposite the Victorian town of Robinvale across the Murray River, with the two communities sharing strong economic and social ties. The area has a long history of Aboriginal occupation, particularly by the Kureinji people, and the region was among the early pastoral frontiers of colonial New South Wales.

Euston's economy is closely linked to the irrigation and horticultural industries that flourished with the development of Robinvale across the river, and the area supports a mix of farming families, seasonal workers, and long-term residents. The Murray River provides recreational opportunities including fishing, boating, and camping along its banks. Amenities for daily needs are shared with Robinvale via the connecting bridge, and the town maintains a quiet, self-sufficient community character typical of remote inland Australia.

Euston falls under postcode 2737 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Murray electorate.
