About Mullion

Mullion is a rural locality in the Southern Tablelands of New South Wales within the Yass Valley Council local government area. It lies on the western bank of the Murrumbidgee River, approximately 40 kilometres north-west of Canberra and 45 kilometres south of Yass, sitting in the broader Australian Capital region at around 700 metres elevation. The 2016 Census recorded a population of 84 people, and the locality encompasses both the Umburra and Mullion parishes of Cowley County.

Mullion is a peaceful farming and rural-lifestyle locality, benefiting from its proximity to both Canberra's employment hub and the historic township of Yass. The area's open grazing land and river country appeal to hobby farmers, rural-retreat seekers, and those looking for a semi-remote lifestyle within reasonable reach of the national capital. A public school operated in Mullion from 1959 to 1972, reflecting the locality's small but established rural community. Today residents enjoy the scenic Murrumbidgee River corridor and the quieter pace of Southern Tablelands living.

Mullion falls under postcode 2582 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Goulburn electorate.
