Perth is the fourth largest city in Australia with a population of over 1.5 million. It has of late enjoyed a very strong growth rate due largely to a strong economy and lifestyle factors such as weather. Perth is the largest city and capital of the geographically largest state in Australia, Western Australia.
It was founded by Captain James Stirling on the 12th of June 1829 and was the political centre of the Swan River Colony. The Swan River Colony was compromised of free settlers, rather than transported convicts. Perth remains the political centre of Western Australia and the location of the state parliament.
Perth is located in the south West of Australia and is nestled between the Indian Ocean and a grouping of hills known as the Darling Range. The central business disctrict is located on the north side of the Swan River with suburbs sprawling in every direction. In The Economist’s 2008 list of the World’s Most Livable Cities, Perth was ranked number four.
In 1962 Perth became know worldwide as the “City of Light” due to residents and business lighting their houes, place of works and streets as the American Astronaut John Glenn passed over the city while orbiting the Earth. This gesture was repeated on 1998 when Glenn passed over the city again on a different mission.
