Camp Hill
Camp Hill is well served day-to-day, but expensive to rent.
Camp Hill is well served for the everyday — 3 schools and 1 supermarket; among the more advantaged parts of Australia (SEIFA 2021, decile 10 of 10). The trade-offs: renting is expensive, a median of $780 a week (RTA, 2026-Q2).
Mostly free-standing houses, with a median age of 35 and households on a median $3,010 a week at the 2021 Census.
Compiled from ABS regional population (SA2), the 2021 Census, SEIFA 2021, RTA median rents, Queensland Police Service reported offences, Brisbane City Council flood awareness data, OpenStreetMap, Brisbane City Council parks and trails, TransLink timetables and Queensland Open Data.

Safety context
Queensland Police Service · July 2026How much crime is reported where Camp Hill sits — measured for its whole police division, because that is the finest area the Queensland Police Service publishes.
Camp Hill is policed by the Queensland Police Service Carina Division, which also covers Carina, Carina Heights and Carindale. The reported-offence figures below are for the whole division, not Camp Hill specifically.
Most-reported offences · Carina Division, last 12 months
- Other Theft (excl. Unlawful Entry)2,170 /100k−18% vs QLD↓ 5%
- Unlawful Entry437 /100k−35% vs QLD↓ 28%
- Assault340 /100k−68% vs QLD↑ 14%
- Drug Offences335 /100k−80% vs QLD↑ 18%
- Unlawful Use of Motor Vehicle212 /100k−37% vs QLD↓ 9%
- Robbery16 /100k−65% vs QLD↓ 58%
Rate per 100,000 people across the whole Carina Division — not Camp Hill on its own; the arrow compares the last 12 months with the 12 before.
Of these categories, other theft is reported most across the whole Carina Division over the last 12 months, running 18% below the Queensland rate and down on the year before. None of this is specific to Camp Hill — a police division usually spans several suburbs, so treat it as area context, not a street-level read.

Flood risk
Brisbane City Council · updated August 2026Has this suburb flooded before, and how much of it does Brisbane City Council map as flood-liable? The historic extents are the ground truth; the likelihood bands are the council's modelling of how often flooding is expected.
Historic flood exposure
No part of Camp Hill lies within the mapped extent of the 2022, 2011 or 1974 Brisbane River floods.
Share of the suburb inside each event’s mapped flood surface. These maps cover only the river and creek extents of those specific events — being outside them does not mean a property is flood-free.
No part of Camp Hill falls within the mapped extent of the 2022, 2011 or 1974 Brisbane River floods — though those maps cover only those specific river and creek events, not overland flow or every waterway. Brisbane City Council's flood-likelihood modelling also maps little to no flood-liable land here.

Getting around, and what's nearby
OpenStreetMap · quarterlyWhat OpenStreetMap records inside the suburb boundary. Counts reflect what is tagged in OSM and can undercount a real but less-mapped area. The park count here is OpenStreetMap green space of any kind, including privately held land — it is a different measure from the council parks below.
Within the Camp Hill SA2, OpenStreetMap records 3 childcare and kindergarten centres, 1 supermarket and 9 green spaces. For families: 10 playgrounds. Eating out and socialising: 9 cafés and 5 restaurants. Staying active: 3 gyms and 60 sports fields. Also 1 shopping centre. The nearest train station, Norman Park, is about 2,250 m from the suburb centre. OpenStreetMap also maps 48 bus stops here.
