Common questions about Kedron

Is Kedron safe?

It is around the middle of the pack for Brisbane, scoring 64/100 for safety and ranking #106 of 277 suburbs. Recorded offences run at 85 per 1,000 residents. That figure is reported for the Stafford police division, not for Kedron alone — Queensland does not publish suburb-level crime data, so neighbouring suburbs in the same division share it.

Is Kedron good for families?

Mixed, and the weak spot is parks and green space. Here are the family measures we can compute — safety 64/100, parks 16/100 and green space 28/100. We do not hold school catchment data, so this does not account for schools — see our Brisbane families ranking for the full method.

Is Kedron expensive to live in?

Median rent is $380 a week, and household income ranks #119 of 277 in Brisbane. Against what the suburb offers, it scores 80/100 for value.

Does Kedron have good public transport?

It scores 33/100 for transit, #217 of 277 in Brisbane. That measures train, tram and bus access within the suburb boundary, weighted by mode.

Are there parks in Kedron?
