Gerringong

Population: 4200 people.

Gerringong - a city to the south from Kjama in the field of the New Southern Wales. One theory says that the name occurs from an aboriginal meaning "a terrible place". Probably, big fear has been caused in tribes by a kind of a vessel of Captain Cook in a full sail. The first European settlers were red cutting torches of a cedar. As in the most part of the coastal New Southern Wales, the cleared away earth was used for dairy animal industries, and cedar reduction died out, as cedar trees have disappeared. The dairy animal industries became the prevailing primary industry and remain to this to this day. Now in a city lives approximately 4000 persons. The main local industries - agriculture (including manufacture of dairy products and vineyards), tourism and retail. The city has a modern elementary school, a town hall. Transport allows to reach to Sydney. In Gerringong a moderate sea climate. Warm both dry in the summer and cool damp in the winter.
