Mosman Park is a western suburb of Perth, Western Australia on the north bank of the Swan River in the local government area of the Town of Mosman Park. Modern day Mosman Park is considered an affluent suburb, but prior to the 1970s it was one of Perth's major industrial centres. In 2010 the Australian Bureau of Statistics announced that Mosman Park had the second highest average value for private sector houses in 2008-09, at $1.579 million, ahead of Mosman in Sydney, which had the highest average value houses in New South Wales at $1.373 million〔(--> )〕 ==Geography== Mosman Park is bounded by the Indian Ocean and the Fremantle railway line to the west, a line south of Johnston Street to the north, and the Swan River to the east and south with approximately 5 km of river frontage. To the west of the railway line Mosman Park includes a section of approximately 600 metres of ocean frontage, south of the extension of Boundary Road and north of the extension of McCabe Street. Historically Mosman Park was a major industrial centre for the state with a General Motors car and truck assembly plant, the Colonial Sugar Refinery, the Mt Lyell Farmers' Fertilisers superphosphate works, the W.A. Rope and Twine Works and the West Australian Brushware Co. factory (one of the largest of its kind in Australia). All were closed by the 1970s. Today, almost all of Mosman Park is residential, with significant parklands at Buckland Hill and along the river.〔2006 S treetSmart directory, Department of Lands and Surveys, Perth.〕 In the 2011 Census, Mosman Park had a population of 8,598 people living in 3,988 dwellings, 60.4% of which were detached houses on separate lots. The ABS identified property, business services and health as the main occupations of residents. The largest employment sector within Mosman Park is education. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mosman Park, Western Australia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
