About Mogriguy

Mogriguy is a small rural locality situated approximately 30 kilometres north of Dubbo in central-western New South Wales. With a population of around 122 people, the community is characterised by its wide open agricultural landscapes and close-knit country character. The area sits within the Dubbo Regional Council and falls under the federal Division of Parkes.

The surrounding land is predominantly given over to sheep grazing and wheat farming, reflecting the broader agricultural economy of the central-west region. Once home to a wheat silo, town hall, school, tennis courts and general store, Mogriguy has experienced a gradual population decline over the decades as improved road access to Dubbo made the larger centre more accessible. Residents rely heavily on Dubbo for shopping, healthcare and employment.

Mogriguy falls under postcode 2830 and is governed by the Dubbo Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Parkes, while state elections fall under the Dubbo electorate.
