About Conimbia
Conimbia is a remote rural locality in the Coonamble Shire of central-western New South Wales, located approximately 80 kilometres north-west of Coonamble and 570 kilometres north-west of Sydney. With a population of just 30 people spread across an enormous 583 square kilometres, the area is one of the most sparsely populated localities in the state, dominated by broad dryland farming country and semi-arid scrubland typical of the Darling Plains. The land is primarily used for sheep and cattle grazing as well as dryland cereal cropping.
Life in Conimbia revolves entirely around agriculture and the land, with the community bound by the rhythms of farming seasons and the tight-knit social fabric found in outback NSW. The nearest town of Coonamble provides essential services including a hospital, schools, and retail. The region around Conimbia offers genuine outback experiences — vast open skies, red-earth landscapes, and the chance to experience one of Australia's most authentic rural lifestyles.
Conimbia falls under postcode 2829 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Barwon electorate.
