About Yanderra

Yanderra is a small semi-rural village located in the Wollondilly Shire, approximately 93 kilometres south-west of the Sydney CBD and about 30 kilometres south of Campbelltown. The locality sits just off the Hume Highway and is recognised as the southernmost point of the Greater Sydney statistical region, with a population of approximately 702 residents recorded in the 2021 Census. The surrounding landscape is characterised by dense native bushland, rolling hills, and a quiet rural atmosphere typical of the Macarthur fringe.

Yanderra has a strong community feel for such a small settlement, with a local public school and a small general store serving everyday needs. Properties in the area typically operate on tank water, which keeps council rates lower than many urban suburbs. The Hume Highway provides good connectivity to Campbelltown — roughly 30 minutes drive — and Wollongong, which is about 45 minutes away via the Hume Highway and Macquarie Pass. Residents enjoy affordable housing, low traffic, and easy access to surrounding national park and bushland, making Yanderra popular with nature-lovers and those seeking a quieter lifestyle on Sydney's outer edge.

Yanderra falls under postcode 2574 and is governed by the Wollondilly Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Hume, while state elections fall under the Wollondilly electorate.
