The district is based in Perth's northern suburbs. Politically, it is a safe Labor seat.
Geography
Girrawheen was located in Perth's northern suburbs. It was bounded to the west by the Mitchell Freeway, to the south by the Reid Highway and to the east by Mirrabooka Avenue. Its northernmost boundary was Hepburn Avenue. The district included the suburbs of Girrawheen, Marangaroo, Balga, Warwick and a large section of Hamersley.
History
Girrawheen was first created for the 1996 state election. It largely replaced the abolished district of Marangaroo. Subsequently, it was replaced by Landsdale in time for the 2021 state election. However, Girrawheen returned as an electorate at the 2025 Western Australian state election following a redistribution, largely as a replacement for Mirrabooka which was abolished.
