About Fraser Range
Fraser Range is an extremely remote locality in the Goldfields region of Western Australia, covering an extraordinary 20,375 square kilometres of semi-arid pastoral and desert country east of Esperance. With a 2021 Census population of approximately 50 residents across this vast area, it encompasses major pastoral station properties in the Gibson Desert fringe and the Fraser Range hills, within the Shire of Esperance. The landscape is characterised by ancient granite outcrops, salt lakes, mulga scrub, and the vast open country of WA's remote south-eastern interior.
Norseman and Esperance are the nearest service centres — each several hours' drive away depending on the part of the locality — providing the essential supplies and services for station workers and explorers traversing the remote Eyre Highway corridor. The locality is traversed by the Eyre Highway, the main route between Western Australia and South Australia across the Nullarbor Plain. Fraser Range suits those working in remote station management or exploration, or those undertaking the iconic Nullarbor crossing.
Fraser Range falls under postcode 6443 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Roe (Agricultural) electorate.
