Overview

Nestled in a valley on the Olympic Highway, Young is the largest town in the Hilltops Region and sits about two hours’ drive from Canberra. With a 2021 population of 10,610, the town is marketed as the Cherry Capital of Australia and hosts the annual National Cherry Festival, while its hot, dry summers and cool, damp winters give the South West Slopes a distinct seasonal feel. Heritage‑listed sites such as the Young railway station and Blackguard Gully sit alongside the historic Lambing Flat Chinese Tribute Gardens, providing a blend of history and natural beauty.

Young offers a full suite of amenities, including six schools, a vibrant sporting scene (rugby league, union, soccer and more), and a range of churches and local media. Housing is diverse, comprising separate houses, town‑houses and apartments, and the town’s position on the Blayney‑Harden rail line ensures solid transport links for commuters and visitors alike.
