If you're looking for love of the hetero-normative kind, living in Mandurah and Mosman Park may be your best bet to find "the one", according to new research based on the 2016 census.
Demographics Group director Simon Kuestenmacher crunched the numbers from the census and was able find where WA singles have the best chance of finding love.

The research surveyed male and female singles aged 25 - 34 and found the number of available men, per woman, in each WA postcode.
According to the data single Perth men should be frequenting affluent riverside suburb Dawesville in Mandurah in their quest for love, with just 83 single men available for every 100 single women.
This was closely followed by Mosman Park and Yanchep with 84 and 86 respectively for every 100.
The data found while living in the Perth metropolitan area significantly upped your chances of love, local blokes living in Balcatta may find themselves less lucky.
The suburb recorded a whopping 159 single men available for every 100 women and was closely followed by nearby Craigie with 150 men to every 100 women.
And if you're living in rural WA, it seems the situation may be even more dire.
A significant "single woman drought" has affected some of WA's most regional towns, with the Shire of Harvey recording just 72 single women between the ages of 25 and 34 in the area - in comparison to the 139 single men living in the area.
Ashburton also recorded 178 single men to just 100 women and Kalgoorlie Boulder came in a close third with 139 to every 100.
However Exmouth blokes can count themselves lucky, with 86 single men per 100 single woman, closely followed by Broome and Halls Creek with 90 per 100.
