Central Murray
33,819 km²
A larger First Nations population than most similar areas defines Central Murray. This vast region in New South Wales is mostly car-dependent, with very few residents able to reach services on foot. The community is marked by a significant gap in walkability compared to the rest of the state. It remains a sparsely settled landscape where travel by vehicle is the primary way to get around.
