Wesburn recorded a population of 1,052 at the 2021 census. Predominantly rural in nature, the township has a narrow ribbon of residential dwellings along and branching off the Warburton Highway. The name Wesburn is derived from its original name of West Warburton. Warburton West Post Office opened on 7 February 1893, was renamed Wesburn in 1925 and closed in 1993.
