Today, I explore Perth’s top six crime hot spots and ask the big question — does crime hurt capital growth and rental yield? From Northbridge to Armadale, the data might surprise you.

You’ll hear how high-crime suburbs like Midland and Armadale have delivered strong growth, despite their reputations. I also cover how tenant turnover and rental yield tie into risk — and whether investors are getting rewarded for it.

If you’re thinking about where to invest next, this episode will give you a new lens to view so-called “stigma suburbs.”

Let’s go inside.
