Covering around 166 square kilometres of flat, semi-arid Mallee farming country, it had a 2021 Census population of approximately 50 residents.

The Victorian Mallee is one of Australia's most productive dryland cereal growing regions, and the wide open skies and remote, flat landscapes have a distinctive character.
