Average rent in Harvey, WA — 2026

Harvey comes in cheaper than most of Western Australia — the typical renter pays $280/week, around 17% below the state median of $337/week (ABS Census 2021). Most households here own (around 72% are owners or paying down a mortgage), and only 23% rent. The suburb is overwhelmingly separate houses (95%), with very little high-density stock. Population is around 9,309, median age 44, and the most common occupation category is Labourers. 20% of residents were born overseas. At 134km from Perth, Harvey typically sits outside the inner-ring rent pressure zone — but state rent indices since 2021 have moved a lot, so the live figure above is a better current guide than the Census baseline.
