The Town of Victoria Park is a vibrant and diverse urban community located just 10 minutes from Perth’s CBD, across the causeway on the south side of the Swan River. The Town is centred around the bustling Albany Highway, famed for its culinary smorgasbord, buzzing café strip and unique retail stores.

Recorded history of the Town dates back to pre-European settlement, where there was evidence of Aboriginal presence on the Perth Coastal Plain and the site near the present-day Causeway was known as ‘Matta Gerup’ (knee deep). In 1829 the first non-Indigenous people settled in the area and the first land grants were issued. Originally established in 1894, it was absorbed into the City of Perth in 1917, before being proclaimed an independent municipality and closely resuming its original boundaries in 1994.

Victoria Park, East Victoria Park, Lathlain, Carlisle and Burswood, as well as sections of suburbs from surrounding localities including Welshpool, Bentley and St. James, make up the Town. The current population is over 35,000 and is expected to grow to 50,869 by 2031.

In recent years there has been a transformation within its residential areas from being traditionally seen as a diverse working‑class suburb of Perth into becoming an increasingly sought after destination for residential, commercial and leisure pursuits, with a thriving café culture and increasing investment in mixed‑use developments.
