It is on the less safe side of Brisbane, scoring 7/100 for safety and ranking #259 of 277 suburbs. Recorded offences run at 320 per 1,000 residents. That figure is reported for the Jimboomba police division, not for North Maclean alone — Queensland does not publish suburb-level crime data, so neighbouring suburbs in the same division share it.
Mixed, and the weak spot is safety and parks and green space. Here are the family measures we can compute — safety 7/100, parks 1/100 and green space 15/100. We do not hold school catchment data, so this does not account for schools — see our Brisbane families ranking for the full method.
Median rent is $450 a week, and household income ranks #208 of 277 in Brisbane. Against what the suburb offers, it scores 8/100 for value.
It scores 33/100 for transit, #152 of 277 in Brisbane. That measures train, tram and bus access within the suburb boundary, weighted by mode.
6% of the suburb is within walking distance of a park, at 2.7 hectares per 1,000 residents — 15/100 for green space.
