Bulee crime statistics

About Bulee

Bulee is a rural locality in the Southern Tablelands region of New South Wales, situated within the City of Shoalhaven local government area and carrying the postcode 2622. Spanning a rugged and elevated landscape, the area is characterised by dense native bushland, steep gorges, and proximity to the Morton National Park. Due to its remote terrain and conservation-focused surroundings, the population is extremely sparse, consisting primarily of scattered rural landholdings rather than a distinct residential township.

Owing to its isolated geography, Bulee has virtually no commercial amenities, retail infrastructure, or public facilities. Residents rely on nearby service centres, such as Nerriga or major regional hubs like Braidwood and Nowra, for everyday goods, education, and healthcare services. The local lifestyle is defined by privacy, primary production, and conservation, with surrounding Crown land and national parks supporting outdoor recreation such as bushwalking and nature observation.

European history in the broader Bulee and Nerriga region dates back to the early 19th century, when explorers and pastoralists first traversed the Southern Tablelands to establish overland stock routes between the coast and the interior. The land has deep traditional significance for the Indigenous Yuin and Walbunja peoples, who managed the country for millennia. European settlement historically revolved around extensive grazing and forestry, leaving the natural environment largely undisturbed and preserving much of the area's historical and ecological integrity.
