Overview
Norwood sits about 5 km southeast of Launceston’s CBD on a flat‑topped alluvial plateau, bordered by the North Esk River to the east and green spaces such as Punchbowl Reserve and Carr Villa Flora Reserve to the north and west. Developed from the 1960s with a boom in the 1970s–80s, the suburb blends large older‑style family homes with pockets of newer dwellings, especially in its central‑eastern area. Families benefit from a local primary school, Queechy High (years 7‑10) and nearby parks including Norwood Bushland Park and Stanley Green Memorial Park.
Road C403 (Quarantine/Johnston Road) provides an easy west‑to‑east link, connecting residents to the wider Launceston region. Daily conveniences include an IGA supermarket, an aged‑care facility and easy access to Kings Meadows Golf Course. The 2016 census recorded 3,734 residents, reflecting a well‑established community with a mix of housing options and ample green space.
