Covering a substantial 186 square kilometres of predominantly agricultural land, the locality is sparsely populated, with the 2021 Census recording just 89 residents spread across farming and pastoral properties.

The Dirnaseer Hall serves as a focal point for community gatherings, hosting events such as the Dirnaseer Rural Fire Brigade meetings, casserole nights, and local celebrations.
