Unincorporated Far West Region
Unincorporated Far West Region, Administrative territory in western New South Wales, Australia
The Unincorporated Far West Region extends across 93,299 square kilometers of arid terrain, with minimal settlements scattered throughout the landscape.
The territory remained without formal local governance structures when New South Wales established its system of local government areas through the Local Government Act of 1993.
Aboriginal communities maintained strong connections to this land for generations, developing specific techniques for survival in the challenging desert environment.
Visitors need to carry sufficient water, fuel, and supplies when traveling through the region, as services and facilities are limited across vast distances.
With only 563 residents recorded in 2021, the region maintains a population density of 0.01 people per square kilometer, making it one of Australia's most sparsely inhabited areas.
