The city that contains the largest share of Western Australia’s population is Perth.
The overwhelming majority of the state's residents live in the greater Perth area, which serves as the state capital. Estimates indicate that the metropolitan region contains approximately three-fourths of Western Australia's total population. Other cities in the state, such as Mandurah, Bunbury, Geraldton, and Kalgoorlie-Boulder, are significantly smaller in comparison.123
