Established from the suburb of Brookdale in 2008, Hilbert is a flourishing suburb within the City of Armadale with an integral role to play in Perth’s great south-eastern growth plans.
Originally farmlands, this suburb is known for its peaceful community-focused lifestyle and its location at the foot of the Darling Ranges surrounded by nature reserves and parks. Adding to its appeal is easy access to:
- large employment hubs, including Forrestdale Business Park,
- the extensive retail and entertainment amenities and facilities in Armadale and Cockburn,
- the Armadale Arena, sports, recreation and aquatic centre
- the Armadale Health Service, incorporating Armadale Hospital
- the Armadale and Araluen Golf Courses
- the region’s 10 schools and seven childcare centres, and
- major transport arteries including Kwinana Freeway, Armadale Road, and the Tonkin Highway which gives drivers a clear run to Perth Airport in under 30 minutes.
Latest Progress in Hilbert
In October 2025, enhanced connectivity and accessibility for Hilbert’s residents were made possible by the completion of the Metronet Byford Rail Extension Project, which extended the Armadale line 8km south from Armadale to a new ground-level station in Byford. Commuters can easily access the train network through new local bus routes (almost 500,000 additional bus service kilometres added to the region’s network), or by driving to new park-and-ride facilities at both Armadale and Byford stations.
Another exciting achievement is the February 2026 completion of the state-of-the-art $41 million Wungong Primary School, adding to the many choices of established school campuses in the area.
With a number of parks and retail spaces in the area too, Hilbert residents really don’t need to worry about anything. In fact, there is so much more planned for all to benefit from and enjoy!
