Question 1

Is Tarago a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Tarago is a small rural village of about 510 people set among rolling farmland and patches of native bush. Its modest centre has a cluster of shops and community facilities that support farming families, lifestyle buyers and people who commute to nearby regional centres. Housing ranges from weatherboard cottages and farmhouses to rural-residential blocks with sizable yards, and the community is dominated by couple families with most homes owner-occupied (a combined 88.0% owned outright or with a mortgage). Life in Tarago is quiet and outdoors-oriented, centred on country roads, local sport, community events and ready access to surrounding grazing country and state woodlands.

Transport and local projects are an active part of life: Tarago is a scheduled stop on the Canberra–Sydney XPT service, there are rail works and contamination management underway in the rail corridor with a voluntary remediation plan in place, and preliminary design has been done to extend the multi-user rail siding. Small community upgrades have been supported by the Veolia Mulwaree Trust, including works at the hall, showground, recreation area and preschool. Whether Tarago suits you comes down to whether you’re after a small, settled rural community and the lifestyle that brings.
