About Koorlong
Koorlong is a large rural locality approximately 15 kilometres south-east of Mildura in the far north-west of Victoria, within the Mildura Rural City Council area. The locality spans a substantial 133 square kilometres of semi-arid agricultural land along the Murray River basin, with a 2021 Census population of 397 residents across 123 dwellings. It falls within the federal electorate of Mallee and the state electorate of Mildura, reflecting its position in one of Victoria's most significant horticultural and irrigated farming regions.
Koorlong's landscape is defined by vineyards, citrus orchards, dried fruit farms, and irrigated cropping properties, making it part of the productive Murray-Mildura horticultural belt. The region benefits from the Murray River irrigation network established in the early twentieth century, and the local economy is closely tied to the wine, table grape, and citrus industries centred on nearby Mildura. Residents rely on Mildura for schooling, shopping, and services, accessing the city via sealed local roads, while Mildura Airport provides regional air links.
Koorlong falls under postcode 3501 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Mildura (Northern Victoria) electorate.
