A group graded K-algebra A=\bigoplusg∈ G Ag is called "locally finite" if dimK Ag < ∞ for every g∈ G. We characterise the weighted graphs (E,w) for which the weighted Leavitt path algebra LK(E,w) is locally finite with respect to its standard grading. We also prove that the locally finite weighted Leavitt path algebras are precisely the Noetherian ones and that LK(E,w) is locally finite iff (E,w) is finite and the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of LK(E,w) equals 0 or 1. Further it is shown that a locally finite weighted Leavitt path algebra is isomorphic to a locally finite Leavitt path algebra and therefore is isomorphic to a finite direct sum of matrix algebras over K and K[X,X-1].
