Suburb Property Profile: Hilbert, WA 6112

Located approximately 31km southeast of Perth's CBD, Hilbert is a suburb within the City of Armadale. Once a rural and semi-rural area used for dairy farming — the name comes from the Hilbert family who farmed here — the suburb has been subdividing for urban development since the late 2010s, with Stockland's Sienna Wood estate now anchoring much of that transformation. Here's our comprehensive guide to the area.

Location Demographics

The population of Hilbert sits at 4,165 according to the 2021 Census, with a median age of 29. Median weekly household income is $2,073, and families with children make up the majority of households, averaging 1.9 children each — consistent with the suburb's profile as a young-family growth area.

Travel & Infrastructure

Hilbert doesn't have its own train station. Bus route 250 connects the suburb to Armadale railway station, roughly 4km away, providing access into the broader Perth rail network; the combined bus-and-train journey to the Perth CBD takes around 1 hour and 17 minutes. Tonkin Highway and the Kwinana Freeway both sit close by, offering a more direct road route for those driving in.

Shopping

The Sienna Wood Town Centre, within the suburb itself, has now opened and includes a Woolworths supermarket, dining options and specialty shops, alongside a café. For a wider range, Coles Haynes and an Aldi are both within a few kilometres, and Armadale Shopping City and Haynes Shopping Centre offer more comprehensive retail a short drive away.

Schools & Recreation

On the Catholic side, Xavier Catholic School serves Pre-Primary to Year 6 with around 350–390 students. The new Wungong Primary School has also opened within the Sienna Wood estate. Hilbert has no secondary school of its own; nearby options include Australian Christian College – Darling Downs and Dale Christian College, both a few kilometres away, with government secondary schooling available in neighbouring Armadale.

Local Amenities

Recreation centres on Sienna Wood's public spaces, including the well-known Shipwreck Park — a 30-metre shipwreck-themed play space with slides, musical elements and a flying fox — plus a fenced dog park and a network of walking trails along the Wungong River at the base of the Darling Range. Together with the Sienna Wood Town Centre's café culture, these amenities give the area a strong family-and-outdoors character as the estate continues to build out.
