Yungnulgra County is a special area in New South Wales, Australia. It's one of 141 "cadastral divisions" in the state. Think of a cadastral division as a way to divide land for official reasons, like keeping records of who owns what or for mapping. It's not a place where people live in a town, but more like a big section of land on a map.

The name Yungnulgra comes from a word used by the local Aboriginal people. It's also the name of the wide, flat area known as the Yungnulgra Plains.
