Tianjara crime statistics

About Tianjara

Tianjara is a rugged, sparsely populated locality situated in the City of Shoalhaven in New South Wales, carrying the postcode 2622. Geographically, it is dominated by the steep terrain of the Illawarra Escarpment and the expansive Tianjara Plateau, much of which is encompassed by the Morton National Park and the Tianjara State Conservation Area. Due to its remote, wilderness-heavy landscape, the area has a negligible permanent resident population, characterized instead by dense eucalyptus forests, sandstone escarpments, and significant catchment areas for local waterways.

The locality functions primarily as a protected natural area rather than a residential settlement, offering no urban amenities, commercial infrastructure, or public services. Recreational activity is centered on wilderness exploration, with visitors drawn to the region’s dramatic lookouts and bushwalking trails. Historically, the area holds cultural significance for the Yuin people, the traditional custodians of the land, while European history in the region was largely shaped by its difficult topography, which limited agricultural development and encouraged the preservation of the landscape as part of the broader NSW wilderness reserve system.
