West Australian parents are keeping school catchment zones front-of-mind in the hunt for a new home in Perth’s hot property market, with new data revealing a southern suburbs school as the most-searched catchment in the state. According to real estate website Domain, house-hunters searched for the Harrisdale Senior High School catchment the most, while Shenton College came in at a close second. Nearly all the schools in the top 10 had more than 2000 students enrolled as of semester two, 2025, and were all in the metropolitan area. While it is not possible to know exactly how many of the searches translated into a purchase, Ray White Armadale City sales consultant Prince Gill said Harrisdale Senior High School was the areas main selling point.
