Warwick is a suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located within the City of Joondalup. Its postcode is 6024. The eastern third of the suburb is a native bushland area known as the Warwick Open Space.

In 1993, Warwick train station was opened, replacing an aging bus station formerly located in what is now the train station's carpark, and the following year, a major cinema was added to the western end of the shopping centre. The suburb also has a hall, a recreation centre, two primary schools and several churches.
