About Garland

Garland is a small rural locality in the Blayney Shire of New South Wales, situated on the Central Tablelands approximately 40 kilometres south of Blayney and around 80 kilometres south of Bathurst. The locality covers approximately 86 square kilometres of open grazing and agricultural country at elevations typical of the Central Tablelands, and had a population of just 75 at the 2021 Census. Properties in Garland are predominantly rural holdings and grazing farms, with the landscape characterised by gently undulating to hilly pastoral country. The 2797 postcode area does not have a recorded ATO median income, reflecting the very small and dispersed nature of this rural community.

Residents of Garland rely on nearby towns for all services, with Blayney, Cowra, and Orange the main regional centres for shopping, healthcare, and schooling. The town of Blayney, around 40 kilometres north, offers a railway station on the Main Western Line connecting to Bathurst and Sydney, providing the nearest accessible public transport. The surrounding Central Tablelands countryside is valued for its wide-open spaces, agricultural heritage, and quiet rural lifestyle. Garland suits those who are self-sufficient and enjoy the pace and freedom of remote rural living.

Garland falls under postcode 2797 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Cootamundra electorate.
