“The region has experienced steady population growth in recent years, driven in part by the ‘tree change’ phenomenon and attractive housing affordability, with prices averaging 40% lower than in Brisbane. This growth, coupled with a strong sense of community, makes the Southern Downs a desirable place to live and work.”

“The Southern Free Times serves as the leading community newspaper for the region, with a free circulation of 13,200 copies delivered weekly to homes and businesses throughout Warwick, Stanthorpe, Tenterfield, Wallangarra, Dalveen, Killarney, Allora, Texas, and Inglewood. The newspaper is also readily available at news agencies, corner stores, and other local outlets.”

“The Southern Free Times offers a comprehensive range of local news and information, including community events, sports, local opinions, job listings, and a comprehensive directory of local trades and services. The newspaper also features engaging content like crosswords and Sudoku, making it a valuable and enjoyable read for the entire community.”

“As part of the Star News Group, an Australian family-owned publishing company with over 100 years of experience, The Southern Free Times is committed to connecting people and fostering a strong sense of community within the Southern Downs region.”
