Outtrim was another former mining town, with black coal first discovered in 1892.  A once bustling town with a post office, police station, hotels and coffee palaces and even a state school, the town had around 2500 inhabitants by 1902. 

Present day Outtrim is mainly farmland, with little remaning of what the town once was. Real estate is extremely desirable in Outtrim, mainly due to its close proximity to Kongwak and Inverloch, while still retaining a rural outlook with large parcels of land available.
