About Winfield

Winfield is a small rural locality in Queensland's Wide Bay region, situated approximately 15 kilometres south of Bundaberg amid the fertile sugarcane and horticultural belt of the Burnett River plains. With a population of around 154 residents spread across 50 square kilometres, the locality is lightly settled and primarily agricultural in character. It falls within the federal electorate of Hinkler, a region synonymous with farming, food production, and outdoor lifestyles.

The lifestyle in Winfield is quiet and rural, centred on the farming and horticultural activities that define this part of Queensland. The area's warm subtropical climate supports sugarcane, tomatoes, capsicums, and other produce, and seasonal agricultural work draws workers to the broader region throughout the year. Bundaberg's urban services — including supermarkets, hospitals, and transport connections — are easily accessible to the north, while the Coral Sea coast and beaches at Bargara are within a short drive to the east.

Winfield falls under postcode 4670 and is governed by the Bundaberg Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Hinkler, while state elections fall under the Burnett electorate.
