	I will retire in Perth. It is still God’s own city.
	Australia was a paradise then. We had a far better standard of living than now. We are very lucky to have these to remember when people were not as crazy as they are today. Some of their views may seem a little basic today, but they were far better of and much more happy. They had a sense of place that is gone now and will never return. I moved from Australia 9 years ago to a country that still values its traditions. I am not sure I could ever live there again as the people have become obsessive and unfriendly. People have no sense of community now and also have no idea of the wonderful way of life they have lost. It really is sad.
	Lol at least people were working, no bogans on centrelink nor Meth users or petrol sniffers
	The guy drinking a beer wearing a hat at 11.02 is my doppelganger fot real, and I live in Perth!! If anyone recognises him let me know we are probably related.
	Wow, I can't even recognise any one place now, they have changed so much. Nice place, but people have evolved.
	She's a beaut' place alright!
	The Daily newspaper! I remember that just and then it just disappeared.
	What a fun classic movie! I remember the airport like that as a child. Its certainly changed!!!
	Covid free and living the best lifestyle in the world!
	Hey England, thanks for sending us out here ya bloody drongos! It’s hotter than satans mistress, drier than a nuns nasty and the flies will drink your eyeballs if ya stand still too long but you dopey bastards should’ve shipped Liz and the tin lids out here and locked us up in Leeds or Blackpool, you must be kicking yourselves.

	The bourgeois life in the backwater. I was 18 then and life wasn't always as genteel as it's painted in this cheesy little government promo. I may be an old fart now, but I've no hankering to go back to that time. With all its faults, life is much better for most of us now.

	Perth what a beauty she is.
	What is the intro song
	Interesting
	Does anyone know the song at 14:10 to 15:14?
	7:11 my school, Graylands!
	Hello Perth when I was born
	Very white policy.
	Like Rank Productions Look At Life series of Britain in the 50s & 60s, these Life In Australia films are excellent. Many thanks for posting.
	Kalamunda Rego on the Ute in Orange Grove. We used to swim in Bickley reservoir and scrump mandarins on the way. I must owe that farmer $20 !! (1975)Oh and my dads car rego was KM12137 (HJ Kingswood Stationwagon) funny how I can remember that stuff !
	Despite what some people say I think Perth is wonderfull, it has lost a lot history which is sad but it's still a great place to live even if it's not what it used to be.
	Surreal, like the land that time forgot.
	Hadn't changed much when we got here in74.
	I bet the taxi drivers were less bloody rude.
	16:45 the old causeway at Cott beach. I remember that in the early 80s.
	EEEKK!!!! 0:39 Bays!!!! Those guys were insane drivers.
	They had classes in the open
	Perth looks Sexy. I`d go there in a hot minute.
	I’d love to visit Perth in the 60s not sure how they’ll treat me as an Asian person though
	And then the Baby Boomers came along and ruined everything........
	I came from the UK in 1967 on the castel Felice sitmar lines, this place was heaven compared to Europe, the film even shot my old primary school at Graylands, funny thing is the old south perth river ferry sits beside my cruiser on the river in Claremont today, fully refurbished, many fond memories of our early family life,and so many great opportunities, and still is. 22/05/2019
	This is the worst city in the world!It’s really depressing! There’s nothing to do and it is so boring in Perth! I advise everyone to stay away from this shiit city! The entire city closes after 5pm! The roads are full of speed cameras so do not hire a car or you will have to pay extra fines! Don’t waste your money coming here! This is the best advice I can give anyone!
	The whole world was a much more quiet and happy place back then. Human overpopulation is the biggest curse on this planet.
	I have a mark on my neck from being pecked by the airport swans. The good ol' CapS Australia's first drive through bottle shop.
	Great video, thanks for posting.I went to Perth for a holiday back in January 1999, and I found it to be a well planned, pleasant city, unlike the unplanned, overcrowded dump my home city (Sydney), has become.
	Paul Newman's brother at 11:00
	Lois Maxwell lived too at Western Australia (Fremantle)....
	did people really dress up all the time? when did thongs start coning into fashion?
	The Mr Whippy van still plays the same tune - "Greensleeves" 50+ years later. This film was made just around the time Iron Ore mining was starting to really move which has transformed the state.
	This provoked lots of memories of 1960's Perth - but not particularly good ones.Lots f shots of Council House. The City Council got the State to pass a law giving the council the right to manage car parking and levee fees, which were to be applied in managing parking. So the City employed a great army of "Grey Ghosts" (Parking cops), refused permits to private land owners to provide parking, and made 30 minute limits everywhere. The City raked in millions in fines because of a parking shortage they artificially created, whereas before there was plenty of parking everywhere, A lot of grey ghosts were ex-police who had medical conditions and they were right officious pests, pissed off because they could no longer work as real cops and get good pay. I was (still a teenager) sitting in my car one time, waiting for a mate, and the meter was showing just before 30 minutes. The law limited being "parked", but not "standing", unless specifically signposted. Up walks a grey ghost and says to me "I've been watching you, son. You think you are so smart just sitting there. I've got my book ready. The instant that meter flag trips, and your engine's not running, I'll get you."That bloke in the suit looks like a typical doing nothing much minor government clerk. Probably a Clerk 5 or similar, as he has a large private office. A deputy under assistant to an assistant to the under-somebody. Keeping the poor girl back late while doing nothing himself. Probably the typing was some memo or report that sat in some other clerk's in-tray for a week then got filed and forgotten.A quick shot of MTT buses, including a glance at one of those old 1930's era half-cab bone shaker buses still in use until the 1970's. Bad ride, noisy, and gutless - Gardner diesel engine about 100 HP in an 8 ton vehicle. They used to have a multitude of stupid signs all over the inside of those green buses - "Do not smoke in non-smoking section" "Do not do this.." "Do that" "Give driver correct fare" And in the driver's cab more stupid signs, like they thought drivers were retards: - "Always pause in neutral when changing gear". "Do not exceed 6 MPH in first gear." Only a 1960's government department would have such crap.
	I don't think that guy is a wine taster, as much as a wine guzzler.
	Perth’s so different now
	Wasn't life a lot simpler then, people appreciated what they had they worked hard for what they could afford. We had communication with each other not like today. And people had manners, hardly no crime back then. My parents went to work left the house unlocked came home it was still as it was. Couldn't do that today.
	No Bond Corp building yet
	child labour in fruit orchard, the good old days
	Mail & phones all part of the PMG a federal government department then
	Still is as backward today as it was back then WA = wait awhile hahaha
	What year was this???
	Long live Mr Whippy!
	This is prehistoric
	We looked at moving to Australia and found this website for Perth. We were blown away at how nice Perth is as we did not even consider it. www.lifeinperth.com.au. We finally went to visit and eventually relocated to North Perth. It was a tossup between Brisbane and Perth and after visiting both places Perth took the trophy.
	Hi i am starting to film around beautiful perth hope you can check out one of my videos
	I live in Perth and love it... WA baby!
	I live in Perth and love it... WA baby!
	Awesome flash back! As a child from the sixties and lived most of my life here I notice nothing has changed too much, apart from technology and fashion. Still a big country town. You can still go down St Georges Terrace at 1pm in the morning without hardly seeing another car. As for Mr Whippy, like I say, nothing has changed too much. And thank goodness for that.
	They didn't show the conditions at the Wittenoom mine then? The ones who stayed in Perth were the lucky ones.
	Wow, what a piece of absolute gov propaganda, still really amazing to see all those places as they were back in the sixties. Spent a very happy 7 years in Perth/Hills. It's a clean sunny place, if you like the ocean & bush you'll be happy there (I was). Peoples attitudes in WA can be a bit strange at times, but I guess that comes from living in one of the most isolated cities on the planet. Some people can be a bit put out by Aussies straight talking no-nonsense attitudes, to other races (apart from white Aussies), It can be confronting. It's still a great place, and I go back regularly. One caveat: watch out for the lunatic drivers.
	It's sad to see the beautiful heritage buildings we used to have here, surrounded by vibrant greenery. The CBD looked rather idyllic in this, compared to the overgrown mess it looks like now.
	wehn ac/dc was still just a current converter
	They drank small beers then!
	Must be a government propaganda documentary to promote living in Australia.Perth, one of the most remote cities on the planet.
	Seems like a better life then as apposed todays selfish society. Nice to see no mobile phones.
	Cone please
	Perth by drone NOW https://youtu.be/PA0XVqZKoP4
	Any on Fremantle!!!
	Haven't seen anyone drink a pony for a long time!
	It would be great to see the exact movie.Reenacted and retracing the steps. See how things have changed. Even. if possible. interviewing the people involved.
	My family arrived on the "Fairsky" ( ten quid) in July '65.....fifty years ago. I recognize a lot of those places. Life has certainly changed..
	where's the black people?
	Visiting perth for 3 weeks during christmas, should be good! (coming from uk)
	Things finally settling down in Perth after the years of being terrorised by Eric Cooke who was hanged not long before this was made - October 1964. Where Mr Whippy comes past - the kids today would be nagging the teacher to get ice-cream, notice how these kids look at the truck and then silently turn back to their work. Also you could still smoke in the office :)
	wow, that was before australia became a communist nation. looked pretty good.
	too much technology nowadays..people losing human touch..
	Lived here all my life,what a quaint video..lol
	My brother and I visited Perth and Fremantle in 1990. We loved it there. We have Aussie relatives there. It is sure different from the USA that is for sure. I am sure it is very different in 2015 . The people there were very friendly.
	ahhh, the British invasion, the culling of hundreds of aboriginies and the hanging of that lil mentally handicapped irish lad (with bodyweight of a 9yo) in 1844, after a minister of religion plied some sort of confession out of him with ships-rum, down at the Roundhouse. I heard they wrapped whaling chain about his legs,to make him heavy enough for the gallows, which the Crown ordered to be built weeks before his trial. The execution took place over Easter. Again, jesus wept. Perth, a city of powerless people who cannot get their gov to serve their needs as theyre too busy working for the rich.
	The jazz music near the end is pretty good especially the guitar .. Sounds like Wes Montgomery ... But they they play that lazy bing Crosby trumpet stuff...sounds like some 50s John Wayne movie
	What the hell is this? Quintessential 'White Australia'? The people in this video are so white that my eyes are blinded a bit.
	I grew up in Perth in the 60s it was idyllic. Life was simpler, mum was at home, dad worked, we all ate well, we all were healthy and happy. Perth is still beautiful but has lost its sole to the dollar. Transport me back to that time and I would be a happy boy again.
	Can anyone please(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) tell me what's the ice cream song at 7:30, I was looking for it like crazy!

it was great that there was no internet and phone at that time

Absolutely beautiful, wonderful

Love the transitions, and it's well shot, but the whistling drove me bonkers

No sign of the indigenous people.. Are they alive yet ??

Perth died when Claremont Speedway died. RIP.
