About Badgerin Rock
Badgerin Rock is a small rural locality in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia, situated approximately 260 kilometres north of Perth within the Dalwallinu Shire. With a population of just 25 residents, it is one of the most sparsely populated localities in the state, covering an area of around 243 square kilometres of flat agricultural land. The area is characterised by expansive wheat and sheep farming properties typical of the Western Australian Wheatbelt, with wide open skies and a deeply rural character.
Life in Badgerin Rock revolves around farming and the close-knit rural community of the broader Dalwallinu district. Residents travel to the township of Dalwallinu, around 20 kilometres to the south, for most services including supermarkets, medical facilities, and schools. The locality appeals to those who value wide open spaces, agricultural heritage, and the quiet rhythms of outback living. Wildflower season in spring draws occasional visitors to the Wheatbelt corridor.
Badgerin Rock falls under postcode 6475 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Central Wheatbelt (Agricultural) electorate.
