Suburb profile
Canning Mills is a hillside smaller community in Kalamunda Council, with elevated streets and a greener, quieter pace. A younger crowd gives the area energy, with plenty of young families in the mix. Weekends tend to revolve around local favourites: a café, a market run, a walk through town.
With fewer amenities on hand, neighbouring suburbs do much of the shopping and service heavy lifting. Local parks and tree cover add a welcome outdoor dimension to suburban life. A car helps for most daily errands, with fewer amenities clustered within an easy walk.
Housing is expensive relative to much of the state. Crime trends have improved of late compared with the previous period.

ABS Estimated Resident Population allocated to this suburb from SA2-level data. Not an official ABS suburb count.
Methodology
Figures are allocated from ABS Estimated Resident Population at Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2), using 2021 Census share within overlapping SA2 regions. Where Census data is unavailable, area overlap is used instead.
The dashed chart line is a simple growth-trend estimate to June 2030 (~50), extrapolated at +0.3% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.
