About Murrengenburg

Murrengenburg is a small, largely uninhabited rural locality on the New South Wales South Coast, situated within the Shoalhaven region and sharing the 2536 postcode with the broader Batemans Bay area. Covering approximately 21 square kilometres at coordinates placing it inland from the Eurobodalla coast, it recorded no usual residents in the 2021 census, classifying it as an essentially unpopulated rural area. The locality sits within the federal electorate of Gilmore and the state electorate of South Coast. The landscape is characterised by coastal hinterland terrain with native bushland and farmland typical of the far south coast.

Murrengenburg has no local services or facilities, and all day-to-day needs must be met in nearby towns such as Batemans Bay, Moruya, or Ulladulla. The surrounding region offers spectacular natural attractions including beaches, river estuaries, state forests, and national parks that draw tourists and sea-changers. The South Coast lifestyle is prized for its relaxed pace, fresh seafood, and access to both ocean and bushland. Properties in the locality tend to be large rural blocks used for grazing, hobby farming, or conservation.

Murrengenburg falls under postcode 2536 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the South Coast electorate.
