🚗 Car Dependent🏗️ New Development🌿 Nature & Outdoors
Jandakot sits at the edge of Perth's southern suburban frontier, part quiet residential estate, part industrial hub, part nature reserve. The beloved Spud Shed draws bargain hunters from across the south, the Regional Park offers misty-morning escape, and the Gleniris estate is pulling in families chasing space. Car-dependent and airport-adjacent, it rewards practicality over polish, a suburb in transition as urban infill and rising land values reshape its identity.
The typical house sells for around $1.39M and rent of $900/week, placing it 36% above the Perth metro median. Getting to the CBD takes a 24-minute drive or 72 minutes by transit, and most residents drive (73%). With a safety score of 34/100, the area is 18 points below the metro average of 52. The median age is 45, with households earning $2,349/week.
