It is located about {{convert|14|km}} south-east of the town of Burnie. Bass Strait forms the northern boundary of the locality.[2] The 2016 census determined a population of 629 for the state suburb of Sulphur Creek.[1] HistoryA watercourse named Sulphur Creek flows through the locality to Bass Strait.[3] It is likely that the locality was named for the creek, which is believed to have been so named due to a sulphur-like smell in the area when first explored by Europeans.[4] Road infrastructureThe C118 route (Nine Mile Road) intersects with the Bass Highway at the north-western extremity of the locality, from where it runs south through Howth before passing through the locality and providing access to many others.[5] References1. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://quickstats.censusdata.abs.gov.au/census_services/getproduct/census/2016/quickstat/SSC60645?opendocument |title=2016 Census Quick Stats Sulphur Creek (Tas.) |author= |date=23 October 2017 |website=quickstats.censusdata.abs.gov.au |publisher=Australian Bureau of Statistics |access-date=2 Dec 2018 |quote=}} {{Tasmania-geo-stub}}2. ^ {{google maps|url=https://goo.gl/maps/C3YL8cdqZPM2 |title=Sulphur Creek, Tasmania |accessdate=2 Dec 2018}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.placenames.tas.gov.au/#p1 |title=Placenames Tasmania - Sulphur Creek (watercourse)|author= |date= |website= |publisher=Placenames Tasmania |access-date=3 Dec 2018 |quote=Search, enter 1659L, Search, select row, show Details}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=https://geocaching.com.au/cache/ga5392 |title=Sulphur Creek Point |author= |date=18 Dec 2012 |website= |publisher=Geocaching Australia |access-date=11 Dec 2018 |quote=}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=https://dpipwe.tas.gov.au/Documents/Route%20Descriptions%20V3.6.pdf |title=Tasmanian Road Route Codes |author= |date=May 2017 |website= |publisher=Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water & Environment |access-date=2 Dec 2018 |quote=}} 2 : Localities of Central Coast, Tasmania|Towns in Tasmania |
