About Nambeelup
Nambeelup is a small rural town and dormitory locality in Western Australia's Peel Region, situated approximately 72 kilometres south of Perth and 14 kilometres from Mandurah within the Shire of Murray. Named after Nambeelup Brook, the locality covers over 105 square kilometres of predominantly rural land, though it also includes several residential and industrial subdivisions through the St Davids development. With a population of around 361, Nambeelup occupies a transitional position between the expanding urban fringe of the Peel corridor and the quieter rural hinterland to the south.
Nambeelup is home to Murrayfield Airport, a general aviation facility serving private and charter flights in the Peel Region. The locality's proximity to Mandurah and Pinjarra gives residents access to a full range of shopping, schools, healthcare, and community services, while the rural setting offers space and privacy. Growth pressures from Mandurah's expanding urban footprint are gradually increasing residential activity in the area, making Nambeelup an emerging option for those seeking semi-rural living within the Peel corridor.
Nambeelup falls under postcode 6207 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Murray-Wellington (South West) electorate.
