Common questions about Rochedale

Is Rochedale safe?

It is around the middle of the pack for Brisbane, scoring 50/100 for safety and ranking #140 of 277 suburbs. Recorded offences run at 110 per 1,000 residents. That figure is reported for the Upper Mount Gravatt police division, not for Rochedale alone — Queensland does not publish suburb-level crime data, so neighbouring suburbs in the same division share it.

Is Rochedale good for families?

Mixed, and the weak spot is green space. Here are the family measures we can compute — safety 50/100, parks 42/100 and green space 16/100. We do not hold school catchment data, so this does not account for schools — see our Brisbane families ranking for the full method.

Is Rochedale expensive to live in?

Median rent is $600 a week, and household income ranks #50 of 277 in Brisbane. Against what the suburb offers, it scores 17/100 for value.

Does Rochedale have good public transport?
