Talawa, TAS 7263
Overview
Talawa is a quiet rural locality in Dorset, situated about 36 kilometres south‑east of Scottsdale in Tasmania’s north‑east. With a modest population of 53 recorded in the 2016 census, the community enjoys a peaceful lifestyle framed by the Ringarooma River, which flows through the centre from south to north, and nearby waterways such as Dunn Creek and Federal Creek. The suburb’s name, derived from an Aboriginal word for “rain”, reflects the natural character that residents experience daily.
Road access is provided by a network of regional routes. The C423 (Mathinna Plains Road) traces a short stretch of Talawa’s eastern edge, while the C426 (Barnett Street/East Maurice Road/Cottons Bridge Road) cuts westward across the area before turning north‑west. From there, the C427 continues north, linking the locality to surrounding districts and the larger town of Scottsdale. This mix of low‑density housing and easy road connectivity supports a relaxed, country‑living environment.
Region type mix: Regional 100%.
