Common questions about Alderley

Is Alderley safe?

It is around the middle of the pack for Brisbane, scoring 64/100 for safety and ranking #100 of 277 suburbs. Recorded offences run at 85 per 1,000 residents. That figure is reported for the Stafford police division, not for Alderley alone — Queensland does not publish suburb-level crime data, so neighbouring suburbs in the same division share it.

Is Alderley good for families?

It rates about average on the family measures we can compute — safety 64/100, parks 54/100 and green space 78/100. We do not hold school catchment data, so this does not account for schools — see our Brisbane families ranking for the full method.
