I have a "Permanent Resident" visa in Australia which expires every five years. Kind of funny that they have a "Temporary Resident" visa which is permanent! :D
(the Permanent Resident visa can be renewed online in about fifteen minutes when it expires, they just want you to attest that you still live here)

Technically you don't have to renew your permanent residency unless you leave Australia (but then you have to renew your temporary visa, too). Also you can apply to be a citizen after ~4 years of permanent residency while you can't apply if you only have a temporary visa.
