Suburb profile
In Cue Council, Weld Range keeps a rural calm, a smaller community with room to breathe and a strong local rhythm. It sits a long way from Perth and other major hubs, so daily life runs on a self-contained, local timetable. Working households and growing families are the backbone of local life, with a strong working population.
Everyday basics may be close by, but bigger shopping and services typically require a trip to a nearby centre. Open space is thinner than in many comparable suburbs, so residents often travel a little further for a longer park day. Day-to-day life is more car-oriented here than in denser, more walkable pockets.
Housing sits in the middle of the local market: neither cheap nor premium. 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 -1.5% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.
