About Invergordon

Invergordon is a small agricultural town in northern Victoria, situated in the Shire of Moira approximately 228 kilometres north of Melbourne and 37 kilometres north-west of Shepparton. With around 601 residents at the 2021 census, the town sits within a predominantly flat farming landscape dominated by grain cropping and grazing. The area was named after Invergordon in Scotland and was established as a township in the 1880s following post-office and farming settlement.

Life in Invergordon revolves around farming and the tight-knit bonds of a small regional community. The town has experienced gradual population decline over recent decades — the local football club folded in 1987 and the primary school closed, later reopening in 2021 as a campus of Greater Shepparton Secondary College. Residents typically commute to Shepparton or Numurkah for services, shopping and employment. The wide open spaces, affordable property and quiet rural lifestyle attract farming families and those seeking an escape from city pressures.

Invergordon falls under postcode 3636 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Shepparton (Northern Victoria) electorate.
