The Queanbeyan Age

The Queanbeyan Age Chronicle services one of the fastest growing cities in southern NSW with a population exceeding 40,000. While only minutes from the national capital it is a separate entity and the inflow of new residents underpins the strong population growth rate and healthy home construction industry.

Manufacturers have relocated from the ACT to Queanbeyan because of the freehold land system which has resulted in additional job generation.

Agricultural activity valued at more than $14 million dollars annually is diverse with wool, cattle, nurseries, honey, sheep meat, hay, barley, milk and wine production.

The geographic location of Queanbeyan adjacent to Canberra and on the main road route to the south coast and snowfields generates $38 million from tourism to the economy annually.
