About Senior

Senior is a vast rural locality in South Australia's south-east, situated within a 500-square-kilometre area near the border of the Wattle Range Council region. The locality is part of the productive agricultural landscape of the Lower South East, an area known for its livestock farming, grain growing and plantation forestry. It is very sparsely populated with effectively no recorded residential population.

The broader South East region is anchored by Mount Gambier, the state's second-largest city, which provides all major services including hospitals, schools and shopping. The landscape of Senior and surrounds features flat to undulating farmland, blue gum plantations and extensive pastoral runs. It is a working agricultural landscape suited to farmers and those involved in the region's primary industries.

Senior falls under postcode 5268 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Mackillop electorate.
