Balga is a suburb of Perth, the capital city of Western Australia, and is located 13 kilometres (8 mi) north of Perth's central business district (CBD).

The name "Balga" was adopted in 1954 and is the Noongar (Aboriginal) word for the indigenous grass tree Xanthorrhoea preissii. Balga residents had a median age of 34, and median incomes were well below average for the Perth metropolitan area and the region. (Source: Wiki)
