Butler, Western Australia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Butler is a suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located within the City of Wanneroo. Its postcode is 6036.

Butler is a recently established suburb developed by Satterley's a Western Australian land development company. It has been marketed under the name of "Brighton Estate-Butler".

Butler is a carefully planned suburb based on social capital principles and the block sizes and locations were partially established with the aim of ensuring a diverse population.

The suburb has developed swiftly since 2002 and has over 1000 households and many thriving local organisations. The wide footpaths, tree plantings and many parks of the suburb have contributed to its success - even though it is over 40km to the north of the City of Perth.

Part of the success of the suburb has been the infrastructure that has accompanied development including bus and high speed train services to the city from the nearby station of Clarkson.

Butler-Brighton has been particularly popular with immigrants, mostly from the United Kingdom but also from South Africa, New Zealand, West and Central Africa and South America.
