About Wandi

Wandi is a rapidly growing outer suburb located approximately 27 kilometres south of Perth CBD in the City of Kwinana. With a population of around 2,850 and covering over 12 square kilometres, the suburb is transitioning from semi-rural bushland to a modern residential community. The Honeywood estate is the major development driving growth, offering new family homes amid natural surroundings and the Jandakot Regional Park.

Wandi offers a family-oriented lifestyle with new parks, playgrounds, and community facilities within the Honeywood development. Residents enjoy proximity to bushwalking trails and nature reserves while being within reach of Cockburn Gateway Shopping City and Kwinana town centre. The suburb particularly appeals to young families seeking affordable new homes with larger block sizes than inner-city alternatives.

Wandi falls under postcode 6167 and is governed by Kwinana Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Oakford electorate.
