Covering around 83.7 square kilometres of flat Murray floodplain and irrigation country, it had a 2021 Census population of approximately 51 residents. The locality sits within the rice, dairy, and mixed farming country of the southern Riverina, where irrigation from the Murray River system supports intensive agriculture.
Deniliquin is the nearest service town, providing shops, schools, healthcare, and community facilities, and is a significant centre for the Riverina's agricultural and pastoral industries. The locality is surrounded by the flat, expansive country of the Murray floodplain, with its red gum forests, billabongs, and channels forming the distinctive character of this corner of southern New South Wales. Myrtle Park suits those connected to the Riverina irrigation farming community and the riverside lifestyle of the Murray floodplain.
