Yes — it is one of the safer parts of Brisbane, scoring 78/100 for safety and ranking #61 of 277 suburbs. Recorded offences run at 65 per 1,000 residents. That figure is reported for the Springfield police division, not for Springfield Lakes alone — Queensland does not publish suburb-level crime data, so neighbouring suburbs in the same division share it.
Mixed, and the weak spot is green space. Here are the family measures we can compute — safety 78/100, parks 82/100 and green space 2/100. 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 $410 a week, and household income ranks #103 of 277 in Brisbane. Against what the suburb offers, it scores 69/100 for value.
It scores 33/100 for transit, #155 of 277 in Brisbane. That measures train, tram and bus access within the suburb boundary, weighted by mode.
Scores are percentiles against every other suburb in Brisbane: 100 is the
best in the city, 50 is mid-table. Updated August 2026. Sources: open GPS activity traces,
