Jolimont is a small suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located within the City of Subiaco and west of the CBD. The suburb is believed to be named after the Melbourne suburb of Jolimont, which was in turn named after 'Jolimont' - the residence of Governor La Trobe. Its postcode is 6014. Of late many new and expensive homes have been built as the house prices skyrocket in this leafy locale. Most of the streets in Jolimont are very quiet and offer a peaceful setting.
Jolimont only has a small residential section, with most of its land area taken up with parks and sporting facilities, although its catchment area takes in blocks of flats on Cambridge Street, Wembley, and the entire suburb of Daglish. The suburb has a primary school and is served by the Circleroute, as well as being near Daglish train station.
Jolimont is home to the Matthews Netball Centre and the Pat Goodridge Hockey Centre, as well as other courts and open spaces.
