It is home to two caravan parks. HistoryThe suburb developed as a rural community in the 1850s when various pioneers took up land and settled in the area along Mandurah Road; however, the community declined following the opening of the port at Rockingham in 1872.[2] The Rockingham Road Board's offices were located in East Rockingham between 1905 and 1929.[3] The Stephenson-Hepburn Plan for Perth and Fremantle (1955) identified the strategic importance of the locality for industrial development. The suburb today contains various industrial developments, with LandCorp making plans to release more land for industrial purposes.[4] The Water Corporation intends to construct a wastewater treatment facility in East Rockingham.[5] The suburb was named Challenger for a period between 1992 and 1996.
