About Marionvale

Marionvale is a small rural locality in northern Victoria, situated within the Moira Shire in the Goulburn Valley region, approximately 280 kilometres north of Melbourne. Spread across around 21 square kilometres of flat agricultural land, the locality lies in the broader Numurkah district and is defined by the irrigated farmland, orchards, and pastures characteristic of the region. The 2021 Census recorded 116 residents, reflecting its very small and dispersed community.

The Goulburn Valley setting means Marionvale is surrounded by productive stone fruit orchards, dairy farms, and cropping land fed by the region's irrigation network. The nearby town of Numurkah, roughly 10 kilometres away, provides residents with access to shops, a primary school, sporting facilities, and health services. Like much of rural northern Victoria, Marionvale is a deeply agricultural community where the pace of life is slow, the landscapes are wide and flat, and community ties are strong.

Marionvale falls under postcode 3634 and is governed by the Greater Shepparton Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Nicholls, while state elections fall under the Shepparton (Northern Victoria) electorate.
