About Mooriary
Mooriary is a remote rural locality in the Mid West region of Western Australia, situated approximately 96 kilometres south-east of Geraldton and around 314 kilometres north of Perth. With a tiny population of around 17 residents spread across more than 302 square kilometres, Mooriary is one of Western Australia's most sparsely populated localities. The area forms part of the Northampton Shire and is characterised by vast pastoral stations and open scrubland.
The lifestyle in Mooriary is quintessentially outback Western Australia — quiet, self-sufficient, and deeply connected to the land. Residents are primarily engaged in broad-acre farming and pastoralism, relying on Geraldton for major services and supplies. The surrounding region offers striking Midwest landscapes and access to the agricultural heart of WA's wheatbelt country. Mooriary suits those drawn to remote rural living and wide-open horizons.
Mooriary falls under postcode 6522 and is governed by the Mingenew Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Durack, while state elections fall under the Moore (Agricultural) electorate.
