The area surrounding the village is predominantly sheep grazing and wheat growing country. Once the centre of a vibrant local community, with a wheat silo, town hall, school, tennis courts, cricket ground and post office and general store, Mogriguy experienced a severe decline with the construction of the sealed Mogriguy/Dubbo road, which allowed easy access to the much larger centre of Dubbo. Recent[when?] years have seen a further decline in the area, as the severe drought affecting most of New South Wales has limited agricultural productivity.
The boundaries of Mogriguy partially include Mogriguy National Park, created in 2005.[3]
