The City of Swan, located north east of Perth, is the largest local government by land size in the Perth metropolitan area, and has one of the fastest growing populations.
The City covers an area of 1,042 square km's, equivalent to almost 20 per cent of the Perth metropolitan area. A beautifully diverse expanse of land, the City is rich in natural assets, including the iconic Swan River and internationally renowned Swan Valley viticulture region established in 1829.
The population across our 42 suburbs stands at 168,334 in 2023, but is set to reach 300,000 by 2050.
The Whadjuk people of the Noongar Nation have been the traditional custodians of the land for more than 40,000 years. The Derbal Yerrigan (Swan River) holds enormous cultural significance for the Noongar people.
Our ideal location, significant history, diverse community and strong economy ensures a positive future for the City of Swan, full of opportunity.
Today the 25th April 2023 is ANZAC Day (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps.) and we remember all who served in the Australian Defence Forces and all who paid the ultimate sacrifice. For you Uncle Richard Aaron Whittam. KIA 6th June 1916 France. WW1 LEST WE FORGET!.
