Median house price
No open median house price for Boranup.
Western Australia sells its property sales records through licensed brokers rather than publishing them openly, so there is no official suburb median we can show. ABS median established-house price, Greater Perth: $1.0M; Rest of WA: $661k.
How it compares
Household income / wk1st percentile
<$450ABS Census 2021$3,750+
Percentiles rank this suburb against Western Australia suburbs that carry the metric — never across states, and never against suburbs where it is missing. Price references are ABS median established-house transfer prices for the Mar 2026 quarter (CC BY 4.0); the suburb figure is a Valuer-General median over a different window, so read the gap as indicative. Income references are the Census 2021 median of the middle suburb in Western Australia and nationally, not a household-weighted median.

Shares are the proportion of the suburb's land area. Land where Landsat saw water in at least 1% of clear passes since 1987, excluding permanent water and filtered by DEA's confidence layer. Satellites miss flood peaks, so this is a floor, not a risk estimate; dense high-rise cores can still register tower shadow as water. Designated for development control; a designation, not a prediction of fire behaviour. Elevation is orthometric height from a 30 m model; no hydrology or drainage is modelled. No open statutory flood layer is published for Western Australia yet.
