AbstractPerth, the only major city on the west coast of Australia, is one of the most isolated cities in the world. Founded in 1829, development was slow until the Gold Rush of the 1890s. Thereafter, however, the rate of population growth has quickened so that, today, the city has become a sprawling metropolis of over one million inhabitants. Its physical setting ensures that it will long remain one of the most attractive cities in the world but continued population growth and its dependence upon the private motor vehicle pose a number of problems for metropolitan planners.
