About Crosslands

Crosslands is a small rural locality in the Port Macquarie-Hastings local government area on the Mid North Coast of New South Wales, situated approximately 25 kilometres north of Port Macquarie and forming part of the Wauchope hinterland. Covering around 3.7 square kilometres, Crosslands sits within a predominantly agricultural landscape characterised by timber country and grazing land. The locality is positioned near the Pacific Highway corridor, providing reasonable access to the regional centre of Wauchope (5 km) and Port Macquarie (25 km). Its modest population reflects its character as a quiet rural community rather than an urban suburb.

Crosslands attracts residents who value a rural lifestyle with ready access to the amenities of Wauchope and Port Macquarie. Wauchope — known as the 'Timber Town' of the Mid North Coast — offers supermarkets, schools, medical facilities, and its famous Timbertown heritage village. Port Macquarie provides a full range of coastal city services, beaches, and a regional airport with flights to Sydney. The surrounding Mid North Coast hinterland is popular for horse properties, small farms, and hobby blocks, making Crosslands an appealing base for those seeking a semi-rural lifestyle within the Port Macquarie catchment.

Crosslands falls under postcode 2446 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Port Macquarie electorate.
