About Number One
Number One is a rural locality situated in the Mid-Coast Council local government area of New South Wales, within the 2424 postcode district. Geographically, the area is characterized by undulating topography, native bushland, and cleared agricultural tracts typical of the New South Wales mid-north coast hinterland. Due to its rural nature, the population is very small and widely dispersed, consisting primarily of acreage and farming properties rather than concentrated residential or commercial settlements.
The locality is entirely rural, lacking major commercial amenities, retail centers, or public infrastructure. Residents rely on nearby towns within the Mid-Coast region for essential services, education, healthcare, and shopping. Local activity is predominantly primary industry-based, centering on agriculture, livestock grazing, and land management. The surrounding natural environment supports outdoor pursuits, local wildlife habitats, and a quiet, agrarian lifestyle.
Historically, the area was traditionally inhabited by Indigenous Australian peoples before European settlement. During the 19th and early 20th centuries, the broader region was opened up for European land grants, timber getting, and agricultural development. The unusual place name "Number One" is historically tied to early regional administrative, land-parcel, or forestry logging-camp designations used during the development of the hinterland.
