Overview

Como sits just south of the Swan River in the City of South Perth, with Canning Highway running through the centre. The suburb is well‑connected by public transport – Canning Bridge railway station on the Mandurah line serves the area, and a network of bus routes (including the 30, 31, 32, 100, 101 and high‑frequency 910) links residents to Perth’s CBD, Curtin University and surrounding suburbs. Families benefit from four local schools: Collier Primary, Como Primary, the co‑educational Como Secondary College and Penrhos College, an independent all‑girls school with both primary and secondary sections.

Lifestyle in Como blends active recreation with heritage charm. Coastal walks along Como Beach sit alongside green spaces such as McDougall Park, Ernest Johnson Oval and George Burnett Park. Cultural highlights include the heritage‑listed Como Theatre and the historic Pagoda Resort and Spa, while a range of private residences and boutique hotels, like Broadwater Resort, add to the suburb’s varied housing mix.
