Longarm

About Longarm

Longarm is a small rural locality in northern New South Wales, situated in the Liverpool Plains district within the New England–Northwest region of the state. With a population of just 23 residents, Longarm is an isolated farming community set amid the rolling plains and hardwood woodlands characteristic of this part of north-western NSW. The locality is close to Quirindi, the main service centre for the Liverpool Plains Shire, which provides essential services including schools, medical facilities, and retail. The surrounding Liverpool Plains are among Australia's most productive agricultural lands, with rich black soils supporting extensive grain cropping and beef cattle operations.

Longarm is home to a small number of farming families and rural workers who are connected to the broader agricultural economy of the Liverpool Plains. The community is quiet and self-sufficient, with residents travelling to Quirindi (approximately 25 kilometres away) for most services, or further afield to Tamworth for specialist healthcare, major retail, and secondary schooling. The region offers a genuine outback farming lifestyle with wide open skies, clean air, and strong community bonds typical of small rural NSW localities. For those committed to agricultural life and seeking a place well off the beaten track, Longarm offers affordable land and the space that comes with true rural living.

Longarm falls under postcode 2347 and is governed by Liverpool Plains Shire Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Tamworth electorate.
