Overview

Leeton, the administrative heart of the Riverina’s Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area, offers a relaxed lifestyle framed by its heritage‑rich streets and abundant community facilities. Designed by Walter Burley Griffin, the town centres on landmarks such as the Roxy Community Theatre, Hydro Hotel, St Peter’s Church and the iconic water towers, while families enjoy a strong education network that includes two secondary schools, six primary schools and specialised institutions like the TAFE NSW Riverina Institute and the Murrumbidgee College of Agriculture. The town’s “Rice Capital” reputation is celebrated through local festivals and a vibrant food‑processing sector anchored by SunRice’s headquarters.

Transport links are well‑served: Leeton lies 450 km from Melbourne and 550 km from Sydney via major highways, with daily coach services to both cities, an Xplorer rail stop on Wednesdays and Saturdays, and a nearby Regional Express airport at Narrandera (≈20 km away). Residential options range from the original Commission‑built homes for early officers to contemporary neighbourhoods that have grown around the historic town plan, providing a diverse housing mix for a growing community.
