About Warri
Warri is a small rural locality in the Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council area, situated on the Southern Tablelands of New South Wales approximately 60 kilometres east of Canberra. The locality lies south-west of the Kings Highway between Bungendore and Braidwood, on the north bank of the Shoalhaven River. With a population of 144 residents spread across 58 square kilometres, Warri is a sparsely settled grazing district characterised by open pastures and timbered ridges typical of the Monaro-adjacent tablelands.
The surrounding region is valued for its scenic rural landscapes, historic townships, and proximity to the Shoalhaven River corridor. Braidwood, a heritage-listed gold rush town approximately 20 kilometres to the south-east, provides the nearest range of shops, services, and community facilities. Warri's remoteness and low median household income reflect the character of a working pastoral community, attracting those who value the solitude and open spaces of the NSW Southern Tablelands.
Warri falls under postcode 2622 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the South Coast electorate.
