Overview

Nowra, a city of 22,584 people (2021 census), lies 160 km south‑south‑west of Sydney in the fertile Shoalhaven region. The local economy blends a thriving dairy and farming base with a growing tourism sector that draws visitors from Sydney and Canberra to its beaches, vineyards and cafés. The central business district hosts banks, health services, a library and two hospitals, while education is well‑served by several primary and high schools, a University of Wollongong campus and a TAFE centre. Heritage‑listed sites such as Graham Lodge and Meroogal sit beside newer residential streets, offering a mix of historic and contemporary housing.

Transport is anchored by the Nowra Bridge to North Nowra and Bomaderry, with Nowra Coaches, Shoal Bus and Premier Motor Service linking the city to coastal towns and providing express connections to Sydney. Although there is no rail line in the town itself, the nearby Bomaderry railway station on the Illawarra line gives access to Kiama and Sydney. Local amenities include Ison Park, Quest Nowra hotel, All Saints Anglican Church and the historic Roxy Theatre, all within walking distance of the waterfront and main commercial area.
