A thriving, inclusive, sustainable and resilient community that will benefit future generations.
The Woollahra municipality, or local government area, has a population of around 52,000. Our Municipality has unique and highly significant natural and built characteristics. Its landform includes the prominent cliff faces of Watsons Bay which form an entrance to Sydney Harbour, a mix of low lying harbour foreshore areas identified by numerous bays and, beyond those areas, land that rises gradually to a ridgeline along Old South Head Road and Oxford Street. The Municipality is a distinctly urban area and is one of Australia’s most prestigious residential locations. It is substantially residential in nature, intermixed with shopping centres of various sizes, large and small recreational and open space areas and large private schools.
