Overview

Huonville is a compact riverside town of 3,002 residents (2021 census) that blends a historic agricultural vibe with growing tourism and aquaculture. Residents enjoy a range of local amenities, including Huonville Primary School, Huonville High School and the family‑friendly Apex Park, while boutique accommodation such as the House on the Hill Bed and Breakfast adds a touch of hospitality. The community’s higher rate of home ownership and affordable property prices attract families, retirees and Hobart commuters seeking a rural lifestyle framed by the Huon River, nearby orchards and salmon farms.

Transport links centre the town within the region. The Huon Highway runs through Huonville, providing a direct 38 km route to Hobart and connections to Franklin, Geeveston and Southport, while the 1959 steel‑and‑concrete bridge is the sole major road crossing of the river. Tassielink Transit and Calows Coaches operate regular bus services to the capital, and secondary roads give access to neighbouring towns such as Ranelagh and Cygnet, with council plans to add a shared pathway to Franklin for active commuters.
