Overview

Nestled at the foot of the Toowoomba Range, Withcott sits on the Toowoomba Connection Road just 10 km east of Toowoomba and 116 km west of Brisbane. At the 2021 Census the town recorded 2,067 residents, showing steady growth. The road, formerly part of the Warrego Highway, gives easy car access to both regional services and the state capital.

Local life blends rural charm with community facilities, including Holy Family Catholic Church on Rutherford Road, the Church of Christ on Biggs Road, and a former CWA hall now a public day‑use area with restroom and covered seating. Withcott State School, reopened in 1984 and expanded to 239 students by 2022, serves primary‑age children, while secondary students travel to nearby Toowoomba schools. The growing population has encouraged a mix of established farms and newer home blocks, offering varied housing options within a close‑knit setting.
