About Yerecoin

Yerecoin is a small Wheatbelt town in Western Australia, north of Calingiri and inland from Perth. It has a very small population and a strong agricultural profile centred on grain and broadacre farming. The town forms part of the CBH receival network and supports surrounding farming districts. Its character is classic Wheatbelt: low-density, practical and community-oriented.

Lifestyle in Yerecoin is quiet and rural, with local social life often centred on community facilities, sport and agricultural calendars. Residents generally travel to larger regional centres for expanded shopping, health care and specialist services. Public transport options are limited and mostly regional, so private vehicles are essential. The area suits farming families and residents seeking a traditional country-town environment.

Yerecoin falls under postcode 6571 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Moore (Agricultural) electorate.
