Our Community

Harvey town is in the heart of the Shire  of Harvey in the South West Region of Western Australia, about 140 kilometres south of Perth. Harvey’s resident population numbers 4679 (2024 estimate), with a total of 31 495 (2024 census) people residing in the Shire itself. Surrounding towns also forming part of the Shire of Harvey are: Australind, Brunswick Junction, Benger, Binningup, Cookernup, Myalup, Mornington, Uduc, Warrawarup and Yarloop. The Shire of Harvey is fortunate to have three CRCs – Yarloop, Harvey, and Brunswick Junctionn,  situated within this area to support their own and surrounding towns.


Since its inception in 2002, the CRC has adapted and expanded the range of services it provides to meet changing community needs.

It has introduced programs to appeal to varied age groups including seniors, men, women and youth. Retirees and seniors are a signficant percentage of our population and play an important role in the community.

Harvey enjoys a diverse population and the CRC  welcomes everyone to our Centre.
