Palmerston is proud to be a vibrant country town thriving in a rural community on the east coast of Otago. The town offers all the advantages of rural living without any of the disadvantages of remoteness, or the difficulties found in city lifestyles. Situated on the junction of two main highways, it enjoys easy access to Dunedin, Oamaru, and the Maniototo and Central Otago. Travel is 40 min. to 45 min. to Dunedin or Oamaru.

Land is very affordable and sections can be purchased for a fraction of city prices. The town boasts a high school, a primary school, preschool facilities, a brand new health centre, a pharmacy, a dental surgery, St John Ambulance depot, police station, volunteer fire brigade, churches, a variety of shops and businesses, a wide range of clubs and societies, a radio station, a vet clinic, cafés, and accommodation options. There is a residential facility, Kimberley, for rest home care. Palmerston is proud of its “state of the art” water supply.
