About Pine Ridge
Pine Ridge is a small rural locality in the Liverpool Plains Shire of northern New South Wales, situated in the fertile agricultural belt approximately 40 kilometres south-east of Quirindi. Covering a large area of over 200 square kilometres, it has a recorded population of around 96 residents, most of whom live on farming properties across the plains and surrounding ranges. The locality sits within the Liverpool Plains — one of Australia's most productive agricultural regions — characterised by deep black soils and expansive cropland.
The community of Pine Ridge is tightly knit and centred on agricultural life, with cropping, cattle grazing, and sheep farming the predominant livelihoods. There are minimal local amenities, with residents travelling to Quirindi or Tamworth for shopping, schools, and services. The surrounding countryside offers scenic views of the Liverpool Range and the open plains, and the area is appreciated by those who value a quiet, self-sufficient rural lifestyle far from urban pressures.
Pine Ridge falls under postcode 2343 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Tamworth electorate.
