About Julimar

Julimar is a rural locality in Western Australia's Chittering Valley region, situated approximately 90 kilometres north-east of Perth within the state electorate of Moore. Covering a vast 387 square kilometres with a population of just 406 residents, the locality is characterised by expansive bushland, farmland, and conservation estate including the Julimar State Conservation Park — a significant tract of jarrah and marri forest. Housing stock is predominantly rural residential and hobby farm properties, with very low population density across the locality.

The locality appeals to those seeking a genuinely rural lifestyle, surrounded by jarrah forests, seasonal wildflower displays, and abundant birdlife typical of the Darling Ranges foothills. The nearby Chittering Valley is known for its small wineries and olive groves, while the historic town of Toodyay lies approximately 30 kilometres to the south-east. Julimar gained broader attention in recent years as the site of significant nickel, cobalt, and platinum group mineral discoveries by Chalice Mining, though the area remains primarily agricultural and conservation-focused in character.

Julimar falls under postcode 6567 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Moore (Agricultural) electorate.
