Suburb profile
Currawang is a residential smaller community in Goulburn Mulwaree with a familiar suburban feel. The community is self-contained in the best sense. Local life comes first, with the region opening up beyond. Established families and long-term residents give the suburb a settled feel, with plenty of young families in the mix.
Pocket parks and green corners give residents room to get outside without leaving the neighbourhood. Transport options are solid enough for daily errands and regular trips further afield. Property is in demand, reflecting the appeal of living in a place people actively choose.
Light infill development is updating a few streets while the wider area stays largely unchanged.
