About Kippara
Kippara is a small rural locality in the Port Macquarie–Hastings local government area on the Mid North Coast of New South Wales, situated approximately 15 km south of Wauchope and about 35 km south-west of Port Macquarie. The area is characterised by gently undulating rural land, timber plantations and small hobby farms within the Hastings River valley. The locality forms part of postcode 2441, which covers the Wauchope area and surrounding hinterland communities. The population is very small, consistent with the low-density rural settlement pattern of this region.
Kippara residents enjoy a peaceful rural lifestyle with easy access to the services of Wauchope, a small inland town with a supermarket, schools, a hospital and the famous Timbertown heritage attraction. Port Macquarie, with its beaches, hospital, airport and full retail, is approximately 45 km north. The area is popular with people seeking acreage lifestyle properties, and the surrounding Hastings River valley is known for its timber industry heritage and scenic rural vistas. The Oxley Highway provides the main road link between Wauchope and Kempsey to the south.
Kippara falls under postcode 2441 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Oxley electorate.
