Common questions about Deagon

Is Deagon safe?

Yes — it is one of the safer parts of Brisbane, scoring 74/100 for safety and ranking #75 of 277 suburbs. Recorded offences run at 69 per 1,000 residents. That figure is reported for the Sandgate police division, not for Deagon alone — Queensland does not publish suburb-level crime data, so neighbouring suburbs in the same division share it.

Is Deagon good for families?

It rates well on the family measures we can compute — safety 74/100, parks 76/100 and green space 74/100. We do not hold school catchment data, so this does not account for schools — see our Brisbane families ranking for the full method.

Is Deagon expensive to live in?

Median rent is $350 a week, and household income ranks #223 of 277 in Brisbane. Against what the suburb offers, it scores 34/100 for value.

Does Deagon have good public transport?
