Common questions about Nundah

Is Nundah safe?

It is on the less safe side of Brisbane, scoring 38/100 for safety and ranking #173 of 277 suburbs. Recorded offences run at 128 per 1,000 residents. That figure is reported for the Hendra police division, not for Nundah alone — Queensland does not publish suburb-level crime data, so neighbouring suburbs in the same division share it.

Is Nundah good for families?

Mixed, and the weak spot is parks. Here are the family measures we can compute — safety 38/100, parks 24/100 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 Nundah expensive to live in?

Median rent is $375 a week, and household income ranks #197 of 277 in Brisbane. Against what the suburb offers, it scores 41/100 for value.

Does Nundah have good public transport?

It scores 93/100 for transit, #19 of 277 in Brisbane. That measures train, tram and bus access within the suburb boundary, weighted by mode.
