Anyone can throw light on likely accommodation for a UWA post grad student?
Suburb/s, rental rate for unit or room etc.
Try the Housing database at

Also, look at the notice boards on campus or at Broadway Fair Shopping Centre.
The suburbs (Crawley, Nedlands) around UWA are catered for the needs of students.
These are usu. 1 or 2 bedroom apartments. Rental is about $150-200 per week. People are known to share a flat to reduce cost.
Try the Google map (Street View) to have a visual view of the surrounding areas.
Broadway, Fairway, Caporn St, Cook St have accommodations within a short walk from the main campus.

There are laundry facilities, Asian grocery shop, Asian eateries and buses (24, 102, 99, 97 etc) nearby
UWA campus is situated in a prime piece of real estate. Matilda Bay is perhaps one of the more beautiful place in Perth.
