The locality covers a substantial area of around 62.5 square kilometres of agricultural land and had a population of 131 at the 2021 Census. Situated south of the historic Greta district — an area long associated with the Kelly Gang — Greta South is characterised by open pastoral farmland and a sparse, quiet rural settlement pattern typical of the King Valley hinterland.
The surrounding Greta district lies in the shadow of Victoria's alpine country and is accessible via rural roads connecting to Wangaratta to the north, where the full range of services including hospitals, schools, retail, and V/Line rail connections are available. The area is known for its pastoral heritage and proximity to Victoria's high country, with the Alpine National Park and the King Valley wine region within broader driving distance. Greta South suits those who value a secluded rural lifestyle in scenic north-east Victoria, with Wangaratta serving as the regional service hub.
