About Krawarree

Krawarree is a small rural locality on the Southern Tablelands of New South Wales, situated within the Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council area approximately 30 kilometres east of Braidwood. Covering around 106 square kilometres of rolling tablelands, the area is characterised by open grasslands, dry eucalyptus forest, and creek systems draining toward the Shoalhaven River catchment. The 2021 Census recorded 82 residents in Krawarree, reflecting its status as a thinly populated farming locality. The landscape sits at moderate elevation on the tablelands, offering cooler summers and crisp winters compared to the NSW coast.

Krawarree attracts those seeking a genuinely rural lifestyle at an affordable price point, with large grazing properties and hobby farms making up much of the land use. The nearest town, Braidwood, provides essential services including shops, schools, and a hospital and is known for its well-preserved colonial heritage and growing arts scene. The broader region around Braidwood and the Budawang Wilderness is popular with bushwalkers, heritage travellers, and escapees from Canberra and Sydney looking for a quieter pace. Residents benefit from a strong sense of community despite the sparse settlement pattern.

Krawarree falls under postcode 2622 and is governed by Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the South Coast electorate.
