About Eurimbla

Eurimbla is a small rural locality in the Central West of New South Wales, located approximately 35 km south of Peak Hill in Parkes Shire. Spanning roughly 111 square kilometres of farming land, it sits within the federal electorate of Calare and the state electorate of Orange. At the 2021 census, just 44 people called Eurimbla home — primarily farming families engaged in dryland cropping and sheep grazing across the wide red-soil plains typical of the region.

The locality is defined by wide open pastoral landscapes, with the Bogan River catchment and flat cereal-crop country stretching to the horizon. Nearby Peak Hill provides the closest general services, while the larger towns of Parkes (about 45 km) and Forbes (about 55 km) offer hospitals, high schools, and retail. Eurimbla suits those who value rural solitude and farming heritage; the area has a strong agricultural community spirit, with local events tied to the cropping calendar.
