I grew up in Perth. Not a bad city - population a bit over 1 million - great beaches both in Perth and the rest of the state - I think they are the best in Australia.
The weather is great - hot in summer but no humidity, not too cold in Winter.
Its a lot more violent these days than when I lived there, more vandalism/grafitti but I guess not too bad.
The down side - it is the most isolated city in the world. You are hours of flight time from anywhere else in the country and it is generally cheaper to fly into Asia than across to Sydney or Melbourne.
Would I ever move back - not a hope. Its isolation combined with a lack of "culture" for want of a better phrase makes it a bit too boring for my likes. Its very suburban throughout the whole city.
