Perth Analysis

1.     Where does your city fall in the hierarchy of Central Places? Give specific examples of other places (both smaller and bigger) associated with your city?

Perth I think would be a National Metropolis because not only is it the fourth largest city in Australia, but It is also the only large city on the western half of Australia.

Smaller places associated with Perth include Freemantle, North Bridge, West Perth, High Gate, and Kings Park.

2.     What does your city offer that wouldn’t be available in a smaller place? What is unavailable locally, but that would be available in a higher order city?

Perth has a major airport, major hospital, universities, major port, major and sports and entertainment.

Perth doesn’t have higher order cities, however other major cities, like Melbourne and Sydney, can offer larger tourist attractions because they are more popular tourist and cultural destinations.
