It is on the less safe side of Brisbane, scoring 33/100 for safety and ranking #187 of 277 suburbs. Recorded offences run at 136 per 1,000 residents. That figure is reported for the Crestmead police division, not for Park Ridge alone — Queensland does not publish suburb-level crime data, so neighbouring suburbs in the same division share it.
It rates below average on the family measures we can compute — safety 33/100, parks 32/100 and green space 50/100. 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 $370 a week, and household income ranks #242 of 277 in Brisbane. Against what the suburb offers, it scores 7/100 for value.
It scores 33/100 for transit, #147 of 277 in Brisbane. That measures train, tram and bus access within the suburb boundary, weighted by mode.
70% of the suburb is within walking distance of a park, at 9.8 hectares per 1,000 residents — 50/100 for green space.
