Migrant's Guide to Perth Australia

Perth is home to more than 1.4 million people and each year about 10,000 new migrants settle here.

The main population is distributed close to the Central Business District (CBD), along the Swan and Canning rivers and near the coast. Recent growth has seen the Perth metropolitan area stretch even further up and down the coast, past Mindarie (30km north of the CBD) and down to Rockingham (40km to the south).
