The historic, administrative, commercial and industrial centre of Swan is Midland, a satellite city and strategic metropolitan centre of Perth. Other key areas of the City include the historic colonial town of Guildford, the Swan Valley tourism and winery region and the new town of Ellenbrook.

History

[edit]

The City of Swan is the modern-day descendant of the Swan Road District, founded in 1871. The current organisation was created on 20 February 1970 as the Shire of Swan, after the forced amalgamation of the Shire of Swan-Guildford and the Town of Midland.

The Shire gained 'City' status on 25 April 2000.[4]

On 1 July 2016 the portion of Noranda north of Widgee Road was transferred to the City of Bayswater.[5]
