About Byford
Byford is one of Perth's fastest-growing suburbs, a semi-rural community of 19,000 residents transforming rapidly 35 kilometres southeast of the CBD. The recent Metronet rail extension to Byford has dramatically improved connectivity, while the suburb retains horse properties and rural atmosphere alongside new estates.
Life here offers Perth's best blend of country and suburban—new homes meet equestrian properties, and the hills provide backdrop and bushwalking. The community values space and lifestyle, with families attracted by value and the new rail link. Byford attracts young families seeking room to grow, horse owners, and those who appreciate semi-rural character with improving access.
Byford falls under postcode 6122 and is governed by Serpentine-Jarrahdale Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Darling Range electorate.
