The Perth Thread

It's not about forgetting, it's about ignoring.

True- my father-in-law has a huge chuckle every time he visits from Vic. It never grows old

No matter how many times I see the name I still often forget it's a silent k.

You guys should've petitioned for the local council to zone your new base as being part of Success.

good idea- it's just across the road, isn't it?
Or even Yangebup... It missed out on being Yangebup by about 1km.

Oh well, why waste a good laugh?? The "Cocker Dockers" has a good ring to it

Likewise, I hear a lot of your 2005/6 team have spent their life Innaloo.

Meanwhile, Collingwood should train at Victoria Park.

 

[blunt_tiger]

I think we can all agree perth is very under rated.

Armadale Line definitely suits the Collingwood stereotype

Collingwood and Armadale.

Carlton and whatever Perth's equivalent of Lygon St is.

Also, is there a suburb that's flooded with Asians?

Carlton = Northbridge.

Asians funnily enough a lot are in Victoria Park.

Essendon and Redcliffe

 

[kfc1]

I'd say the Albany Hwy strip thru Vic Park resembles Lygon St but the rest of the suburb is very different. Kardinya/Murdoch/Bull Creek across to Thornlie/Cannington is suburban asia

You mean Lee Ming and Chinthrop? Definitely! I read somewhere that Murdoch Uni had 80% of its students from China a few years ago. Not sure if it's changed.

 

[Kram]

I don't think I've ever had the pleasure of frequenting the Armadale train line, at least not for more than a couple of stops anyway.

What about Freo and the cafe strip? There are a lot of Italians living in Freo.

Not true, but Chinese do make up the majority of international students in universities in WA, definitely.

The percentages of Asian-born people living in the Murdoch to Cannington ara is definitely high but I wouldn't call it suburban Asia, it's still fairly low-ish at about 15-20%, tops.

No.

Just checked on Wiki- about 3000 of 18500 students are international. I'm positive that it used to be higher but definitely cannot prove the 80% I mentioned above.

Perhaps it was 80% of the INTERNATIONAL students were Chinese? That sounds a lot better.

Lol at Lee Ming. Hadnt heard that one before

great selling point to asian investers and migrants. leeming was established by two asian brothers

Speaking of Asian investors- I understand that they steer clear of buying houses with #4 (unlucky) in their number. And several houses have been renumbered because of this- sort of like #13 with Caucasians.
