Noranda is a suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located in the City of Bayswater.

The suburb was named in 1977 after Noranda Park, a town in the U.S. state of Florida.[2] The portion north of Widgee Road was transferred to the City of Bayswater from the City of Swan on 1 July 2016.[3] The suburb is a middle- to upper-middle class area with some affluent pockets. The population consists largely of families of white collar workers.
