Overview

Alstonville is a thriving town of 5,182 residents (2021 Census) set on the Alstonville Plateau in northern New South Wales. Nestled on the Bruxner Highway between Ballina (13 km east) and Lismore (19 km west), it enjoys a humid subtropical climate with warm, rainy summers and mild, drier winters. The centre revolves around Alstonville Plaza, a major supermarket flanked by specialty shops, while the historic Crawford House museum and the nearby Alstonville Library add cultural depth. Families benefit from a blend of heritage homes, like the pioneer‑era Crawford House, and newer dwellings, all within easy reach of parks such as the Alstonville Showground, Rossmore Park and Geoff Watt Oval, which host cricket, soccer and community events.

Transport is straightforward: a regular bus links Alstonville to Ballina and Lismore, and a dedicated path connects the town to neighbouring Wollongbar for pedestrians and cyclists. Recent highway bypass works have eased the former congestion on the main thoroughfare. Educational needs are met by Alstonville Public School, St Joseph’s Catholic primary, Alstonville High School and a modern preschool beside the Olympic swimming pool. Sporting life thrives with clubs for football, rugby and cricket, while the industrial estate in Russleton Park provides local employment in cement, macadamia processing and rural supplies.
