Brisbane Suburb Crime Rankings
Full list of Brisbane suburbs ranked by overall ‘crime rating’ – an aggregated rank of all major crimes reported by the QLD police department, adjusted for suburb population, weighted against the QLD average (lower crime ranking = safer; 100 = highest crime).
Note that ‘party’ suburbs typically over-index on a per-capita basis due to alcohol-related crimes & a high visitation rate of people who do not live there.
