About Yeodene

Spanning nearly 50 square kilometres of agricultural land and rolling pastoral hills, the area had a population of just 107 residents in the 2021 census, making it one of the more sparsely settled localities in the region. It lies inland from the Great Ocean Road corridor, at an elevation typical of the fertile volcanic plains that characterise this part of Victoria.

Life in Yeodene revolves around farming and rural pursuits, with the surrounding land used predominantly for grazing cattle and dairy production. Residents rely on the nearby town of Colac for everyday services including supermarkets, schools, healthcare, and transport connections. The locality offers a quiet, nature-filled lifestyle appreciated by those seeking space and rural tranquillity, with the Otway Ranges and the Great Ocean Road just a short drive away for weekend exploring.

Yeodene falls under postcode 3249 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Polwarth (Western Victoria) electorate.
