Desirability score
Suburb profile
Perth is a lively inner established suburb with dining, shopping and leisure options right on the doorstep. The community skews younger, with education options woven into the neighbourhood. A large share of residents were born overseas, and languages other than English are widely spoken at home.
Schooling is a clear local strength compared with many peer areas. Parks and open space are a real strength relative to many metro suburbs, easy for walks, sport and weekend downtime. Most routine trips are on foot, while buses, trains, and ferries cover longer journeys across the metro area.
Housing is expensive relative to much of the state. Reported crime has been falling recently.
The desirability picture is good, powered mainly by community and employment relative to similar metro suburbs.

ABS Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA), 2021 release — the latest available, derived from the 2021 Census. Deciles rank suburbs nationally from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).
IRSAD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. Combines indicators of advantage (e.g. high income, skilled occupations) and disadvantage. Higher decile = more advantaged relative to other Australian areas.
IRSD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage. Focuses on disadvantage only (e.g. low income, unemployment, limited education). Higher decile = less disadvantage nationally.
A new SEIFA edition typically follows each census; the ABS has not announced a release date beyond 2021.
