I don't believe it is stated anywhere in the books that GH is 'all 
Muggle'.

Pettigrew killed several Muggles (assumed inhabitants) there, and it 
is frequently deduced from Hermione's remark that Hogsmeade is the 
only all-wizard village in Britain that all other places have 
Muggles - a deduction that IMO makes some leaps.

We don't in fact know, IIRC, that GH is a village - it might be a 
single house (eg a stately home), or an area in a larger 
settlement.  It is of some antiquity as mentioned in QTTA.
