About St Kilda
St Kilda is a small rural locality in the Bundaberg Region of Queensland, located approximately 61.5 kilometres south-west of Bundaberg and around 346 kilometres north of Brisbane. The locality covers about 18 square kilometres of mixed agricultural land, with cropping predominating on the flatter northern portions and grazing cattle across the hillier southern parts. With a population of just 99 people recorded in the 2021 census, St Kilda is one of the smallest communities in the region, occupying a quiet pocket of Queensland's Wide Bay hinterland. The locality falls within the federal electorate of Flynn and the state electorate of Callide, reflecting its rural and regional character.
Daily life in St Kilda revolves around farming and the rhythms of the land, with sugarcane, sorghum, and cattle grazing forming the backbone of local livelihoods. Residents typically travel to Gin Gin (around 12 km north-east) for fuel, groceries, and community services, while the larger city of Bundaberg provides access to hospitals, high schools, and major retail. The locality has no commercial services of its own but is valued for its peaceful rural atmosphere, wide open spaces, and strong agricultural heritage. Bundaberg's renowned coastal attractions, including Mon Repos Turtle Centre and the Coral Coast, are within an hour's drive, offering a pleasant lifestyle escape for those who embrace country living.
St Kilda falls under postcode 4671 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Callide electorate.
