About Barlyne

Barlyne is a sparsely populated rural locality in Queensland's North Burnett region, covering approximately 35 square kilometres of agricultural land south-west of the Burnett River. Located near the small town of Gayndah — Queensland's oldest town — the locality sits within the Callide state electorate and the federal electorate of Flynn. The area supports a mix of citrus orcharding, beef cattle grazing, and dryland farming, typical of the fertile Burnett Valley. Population is extremely low, with the locality functioning primarily as farmland rather than a residential community.

Those who do live in and around Barlyne enjoy the wide-open spaces and peaceful rural lifestyle of the North Burnett. The historic town of Gayndah, just a short drive away, provides essential services including a supermarket, medical centre, and primary school. The broader North Burnett region is known for its citrus production and the annual Gayndah Orange Festival. Bundaberg, the major regional centre, is roughly 100 kilometres to the east and provides access to hospitals, higher education, and a wider range of commercial services.

Barlyne falls under postcode 4625 and is governed by the North Burnett Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Flynn, while state elections fall under the Callide electorate.
