About Ghooli
Ghooli is an extremely remote locality in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia, situated approximately 30 kilometres north-east of Merredin at coordinates 30°S, 119°E. Covering nearly 1,000 square kilometres of arid pastoral and agricultural land, the locality has a recorded population of just 17 people, making it one of the smallest localities in the state. It falls within the broader Merredin area, characterised by vast open plains, saltbush scrubland, and the flat, sun-baked landscapes typical of the WA Wheatbelt.
Life in Ghooli centres on broad-acre farming and pastoral activities, with residents typically engaged in wheat, barley, and sheep production on large landholdings. The locality is entirely self-sufficient by necessity — the nearest significant services are found in Merredin, which offers schools, medical facilities, and a supermarket. The surrounding landscape offers a stark, expansive beauty, with wildflowers carpeting the plains during spring and clear, starry skies year-round.
Ghooli falls under postcode 6426 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Central Wheatbelt (Agricultural) electorate.
