About Kingsdale

Kingsdale is a small rural locality situated approximately 7 kilometres north of Goulburn and about 95 kilometres north-east of Canberra, within the Goulburn Mulwaree Council area of New South Wales. With a 2021 Census population of 211 residents spread across 67.7 square kilometres, the locality maintains a quiet, semi-rural character typical of the Southern Tablelands region. The median taxable income in the broader postcode area reflects a modest rural economy, and housing is predominantly low-density acreage and small farm properties.

The locality suits those seeking a quiet semi-rural lifestyle with easy reach of Goulburn's amenities, and its position on the Hume Highway corridor also provides straightforward access to both Sydney and the Australian Capital Territory.
