Common questions about Bray Park

Is Bray Park safe?

It is on the less safe side of Brisbane, scoring 44/100 for safety and ranking #155 of 277 suburbs. Recorded offences run at 116 per 1,000 residents. That figure is reported for the Petrie police division, not for Bray Park alone — Queensland does not publish suburb-level crime data, so neighbouring suburbs in the same division share it.

Is Bray Park good for families?

It rates about average on the family measures we can compute — safety 44/100, parks 62/100 and green space 58/100. We do not hold school catchment data, so this does not account for schools — see our Brisbane families ranking for the full method.

Is Bray Park expensive to live in?

Median rent is $390 a week, and household income ranks #206 of 277 in Brisbane. Against what the suburb offers, it scores 26/100 for value.

Does Bray Park have good public transport?
