About Ootha

Ootha is a large 252 square kilometre locality located in New South Wales approximately 55 kilometres from Condobolin and around 490 kilometres from Sydney. With a population of just 44 residents recorded in the 2021 Census, Ootha is one of the smaller rural localities in the region, characterised by open farmland and sparse settlement. The locality's locality classification reflects its largely agricultural or natural land use, with properties typically comprising broad-acre farms, grazing land, or bushland holdings.

The surrounding New South Wales countryside offers the quiet rhythms of rural life, with residents relying on Condobolin for shopping, schools, medical services, and community facilities.
