About New Valley

New Valley is a remote rural locality in northern New South Wales, situated in the New England Tablelands region approximately 50 kilometres south-west of Glen Innes. With only 32 residents recorded at the 2021 Census, it is one of the smallest localities in New South Wales, spread across a vast 204 square kilometres of tablelands grazing country at elevation. The locality falls within the Northern Tablelands electorate and is characterised by open pasture, granite outcrops, and the cool climate typical of the New England Plateau.

Life in New Valley is quintessentially remote rural Australia, with residents typically operating beef cattle or sheep properties across large landholdings. The nearby service town of Glen Innes provides schools, a hospital, and essential shopping, while Armidale to the south offers broader tertiary services and the University of New England. The high-altitude tablelands deliver cool summers, cold winters, and a dramatic landscape that appeals strongly to those seeking agricultural or hobby-farm lifestyles far from urban centres.

New Valley falls under postcode 2365 and is governed by the Armidale Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Parkes, while state elections fall under the Northern Tablelands electorate.
