The peaceful suburb, Bicton, is an excellent location for young families, retirees, and couples who want to put down roots. The fact that the suburb is less affluent than its neighbour, Attadale, plays a part in Bicton’s popularity. Those looking for homes in the suburb noted that the area is lovely with plenty of green space, friendly people, and down to earth.

Bicton offers ample areas for recreation, and many residents enjoy spending time near the Swan River. Residents of Bicton enjoy access to a number of shopping centres within the suburb and in nearby Freemantle. The Canning Bridge train station is most convenient for Bicton residents, and bus service is available to the rail station or Esplanade Bus Port.

People who are searching for homes in Bicton also looked at properties in Attadale and Palmyra. In many cases, the prices put Attadale out of reach. On the other hand, Palmyra’s small units and alcoves of government housing made the suburb less attractive than Bicton.
