About Climate Risk in Western Australia

Western Australian suburbs face extreme heat risk across Perth and inland areas, bushfire risk in the Perth Hills and South West, with coastal erosion and storm surge affecting properties near the Indian Ocean coastline from Mandurah to Geraldton.

ClimateNest suburb assessments are built using Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) historical hazard data, CSIRO future climate projections under SSP2-4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios, state-specific hazard overlays from emergency services and planning authorities, and actuarial data. Every assessment includes current hazard scores (0–100), projected scores for 2030 and 2050, local geographic evidence, insurance outlook, and property owner recommendations.
