About Cattle Creek
Cattle Creek is a small rural locality in the Liverpool Plains region of New South Wales, located within Liverpool Plains Shire near Quirindi. The area spans approximately 217 square kilometres of agricultural and pastoral land on the fertile Liverpool Plains, historically supporting broadacre cropping and livestock grazing. The 2021 census recorded a very small resident population, reflecting the highly agricultural and low-density nature of this locality.
The locality is embedded within one of Australia's most productive agricultural zones, where black soil plains support crops including wheat, sorghum, canola, and chickpeas alongside cattle grazing operations. The nearest service centre is Quirindi, approximately 15–25 kilometres away, providing schools, shops, and essential services for surrounding rural properties. Cattle Creek suits landholders and families committed to an agricultural lifestyle in the New South Wales Northern Tablelands hinterland.
Cattle Creek falls under postcode 2339 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Tamworth electorate.
