We hold 180 venues in Wollongong — 164 places to eat and 16 to stay. That makes it the 7th-largest of the 1903 towns and suburbs we cover in New South Wales, carrying 1% of the region's venues. Nationally it sits 20th out of 6,269 places.

Of the places to eat, 31% are cafés against a national figure of 30%. That is close to the New Zealand norm — Wollongong eats roughly the way the country does. The full split is 51 cafés, 65 restaurants, 34 takeaways, 9 bars and 5 pubs.

96 of the 164 eating places carry a cuisine tag. The most common are coffee shop (12), burger (11) and pizza (8). Relative to the rest of the country Wollongong is unusually strong on breakfast, greek and seafood — those appear here at a higher rate than the national average.

On the practical detail: 27 publish opening hours (15%), 13 are recorded as step-free, 36 have outdoor seating and 3 flag vegetarian options. That is about the national average of 17%.

For a bed, Wollongong runs to 16 listings — 6 hotels, 4 motels, 1 hostels, 3 serviced apartments and 2 holiday parks and campgrounds. Hotels dominate, at 38% of the town's accommodation.

Places of a similar size — Port Macquarie (184), Logan City (176), Ipswich (175) and North Canberra (189) — average 11% accommodation. Wollongong runs at 9%, much the same, so on this measure it behaves like its peers.

All of this is derived from open data rather than collected from listings sites: OpenStreetMap for the venues, public registers for verification. 6 of the 180 venues in Wollongong carry at least six recorded attributes and so have a page of their own; the rest are listed here, because a page with only a name and a map pin on it would be worth nobody's time. A blank field means unrecorded, not absent. Nothing here is scraped from a commercial directory, no venue has paid to appear, and we publish no ratings or reviews of our own.
