About Myall (Buloke - Vic.)

Myall is a sparsely populated rural locality in the Buloke Shire of north-western Victoria, situated in the Mallee region near the South Australian border. Covering approximately 87 square kilometres of flat, semi-arid farmland, the area is typical of the Mallee — characterised by wide horizons, cereal cropping, and a deeply rural way of life. The 2021 Census recorded just 17 residents, reflecting the locality's extremely low settlement density.

The surrounding Mallee landscape defines life in Myall, where agriculture — predominantly wheat and canola farming — is the primary occupation. Residents rely on nearby small towns for services and supplies, with the Murray Plains region offering a tight-knit rural community. The locality falls within the federal electorate of Mallee, and the state electorate of Murray Plains, both strongly tied to agricultural and regional interests.

Myall (Buloke - Vic.) falls under postcode 3533 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Murray Plains (Northern Victoria) electorate.
