About Buller
Buller is a small coastal locality situated approximately 15 kilometres north of Geraldton along the North West Coastal Highway, within the City of Greater Geraldton in Western Australia's Mid West region. With a population of 159 residents spread across 6.9 square kilometres, Buller is a tight-knit community shaped by its position alongside the Buller River estuary and the Indian Ocean coastline. The area includes the Drummond Cove precinct and is home to Wajarri Enterprises, reflecting the locality's connections to First Nations enterprise in the region. Median incomes align with the broader Geraldton area, supported largely by mining, agriculture, and service industries.
Buller's appeal lies in its proximity to Geraldton's full range of amenities — including schools, hospitals, shopping centres, and the port — while retaining a quieter, coastal atmosphere. The Drummond Cove Holiday Park, located within the locality, is a popular base for travellers exploring Western Australia's Coral Coast. Residents benefit from easy access to Geraldton's beaches, local fishing spots, and the region's renowned lobster and crayfish heritage. The North West Coastal Highway passes directly through, connecting the locality to Geraldton in the south and Carnarvon to the north.
Buller falls under postcode 6532 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the North West Central (Mining and Pastoral) electorate.
