With a 2021 Census population of 174 residents across an area of around 19 square kilometres, North Greenbushes sits on the traditional land of the Noongar people and is closely associated with the neighbouring town of Greenbushes, which has been at the centre of significant tin and lithium mining activity since the 1880s. The locality features a heritage-listed railway station from the era when the Northcliffe railway line served the district.
North Greenbushes and the surrounding Bridgetown–Greenbushes Shire are known for the lush jarrah and karri forests of the South West, scenic apple and pear orchards in Balingup, and the broader appeal of the Blackwood River valley. Bridgetown, 20 kilometres to the south, serves as the main service centre offering supermarkets, schools, cafes, and the annual Blues at Bridgetown music festival. The region attracts those seeking a forest lifestyle and agricultural setting, with easy access to the South Western Highway connecting to Bunbury (79 km) and Perth.
