Western Australia’s Newest Multicultural Hub
Perth (and Western Australia) has experienced a surge in migration recently as borders reopened post-pandemic. In fact, Western Australia has overtaken other states in terms of population growth in 2022-23 by approximately 3% and this has been fueled by overseas migrants. This translates to thousands of international families relocating to Perth every year. Who are these new West Australians? The data indicates that the immigrant population of Perth is indeed global and quite rich in diversity.
Europe: The United Kingdom remains one of the largest source countries. In 2021, approximately 27.6% of Western Australia’s (WA) overseas-born residents were born in the UK. Other European countries, mostly those from Southern and Eastern Europe, contribute an additional 6.6%. Roughly one-third of Perth’s overseas-born population is European in origin.
Asia: Perth has a growing number of Asian families. 16.4% of WA’s overseas-born residents are from Southeast Asia, 11.2% from Southern and Central Asia, and 5.9% from Northeast Asia. They are now the largest group of migrants to Perth, a trend that has been increasing in recent years.
Africa: Perth has an emerging population of African-born families. Approximately 10% of WA’s overseas-born population comes from Africa, mainly Sub-Saharan Africa, with a notably strong South African community residing in Perth.
Americas: There is a smaller, but still notable, South and North American grouping within Perth’s overseas-born population, accounting for around 3 to 4% of the total. Several families from the US, Canada, and other parts of Latin America have settled in Perth.
This data is sourced from the most current Australian census and migration data, which illustrates the cultural diversity of Perth. To summarize, Perth’s migrants arrive from every part of the world and they include sizable populations from the UK and other regions in Asia. The great many cultures living side by side in Perth are what makes the city a wonderful place to live, work, and bring up children.
New City, New Challenges: Settling In in Perth
Relocating your family to a new city such as Perth is thrilling, but can be overwhelming at the same time. As a newcomer, you might find this city particularly difficult due to its large population. Many overseas families tell us how challenging it is to find reliable providers for healthcare, schooling, banking and home services. It’s totally reasonable to feel lost when everything seems new.
The smaller signals such as earning a paycheck routinely shift into larger roadblocks like figuring out which bank is best. Locating a trustworthy babysitter, handyman, or house cleaner turns from straightforward into an online scavenger hunt or more accurately a treasure hunt for good reviews. Seeing how Perth is a big city, figuring out which companies have good reputations is quite the puzzle, especially for people who are newcomers to a certain region.
Along with all of this jumbled chaos, one that is in absolute objective prioritization rot can also be managing the children’s enrollment in school, setting up essentials and learning how to drive on Aussie roads. With everything stated, it is important to note that it isn’t any surprise why obtaining services proves to be challenging for these families.
The good news is that locals in Perth are very friendly, and there are a number of helpful services for you to settle into. Community centers and local councils (such as the City of Stirling’s Newcomer’s Guide) works to give migrants as well as other new residents descriptive maps to useful services and support networks. With a little time, you’ll understand the system – but we’re all aware that those first few weeks can be made so much better with a little bit of extra care, and that is where our team comes in.
