About Miepoll

Miepoll is a sparsely populated rural locality in the Strathbogie Shire of north-central Victoria, situated in the hill country east of Nagambie and south-west of Euroa, approximately 150 kilometres north of Melbourne. The locality covers nearly 100 square kilometres of hilly pastoral land within the Strathbogie Ranges region, with a small resident population of around 223 people. The area features a below-average median income, consistent with its character as a dry-land farming and grazing district.

The surrounding landscape is defined by granite-topped ranges, native bushland, and open grazing paddocks characteristic of the Strathbogie plateau. Residents depend on the nearby towns of Nagambie and Euroa for essential services, shopping, and schooling, both within a 30-minute drive. Miepoll is a quiet retreat for those who value privacy and rural space, with the Goulburn Valley Highway providing the main link to Melbourne and Shepparton.

Miepoll falls under postcode 3666 and is governed by the Strathbogie Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Nicholls, while state elections fall under the Euroa (Northern Victoria) electorate.
