Description

Warburto is located within the federal division of Grey, the state electoral district of Narungga and the local government area of the Copper Coast Council.[2][5][4] The boundaries of the gazetted locality were created in January 1999.[2][8] As of 2014, land use within the locality consisted of agriculture being the major use, followed by conservation including the Bird Islands Conservation Park.[9] In August 2014, sections were severed and added to the localities of Cross Roads, North Moonta and Paramatta to "better align postal delivery and to reflect historical associations".[10] There was once a Warburto railway station on the former Wallaroo railway line.[11]
