Despite the prestige of the nearby Agricultural school and college, Yanco is now really an outer suburb of Leeton. Decent club and an excellent winery worth a drop in, Might be OK if you don't want to actually be in Leeton, but it's still a town so in that case you might as well go for a bit of acrage.

A truly charming village atmosphere, although discovered by Waggas intelligencia which has bumped up cost of living a bit. Perfect if you like a bit of tradition that is not to far from the comforts of city life to be found. Nice cafe. Worth taking the back road when going west for a special treat. People seem nice, but I never lived here so don't know over long term. Lacks a proper river. Despite being on the main Wagga to Griffith railway, there's hardly a train service but the local bus company provides a handy workers' service. Would be excellent for the retirement.

A lovely country town providing peace and quiet from very lovely friendly locals, and a stone's throw from everything else you have to get in Wagga Wagga. A suitable number of parks and entertainment choices provide distraction and a place to relax. It's a big railway town so it has an excellent rail service compared to similar sized towns but this also means the road service is poor and there is an element of rowdy railway workers. A good choice of pubs but eating options are limited as people tend to pop out to Wagga Wagga if they need a fancy meal. Don't be put off by the prison, the wardens seem to do their work well and it provides much needed economic activity and job opportunities for local tradies. It could do with a river, but the Murrum's not too far on those hot summer days. Don't be tricked by 'Old Junee'. We thought it might be nice and historic part of town but it's nothing too special.
