Safety context
Queensland Police Service · July 2026How much crime is reported where Enoggera sits — measured for its whole police division, because that is the finest area the Queensland Police Service publishes.
Enoggera is policed by the Queensland Police Service Ferny Grove Division, which also covers Keperra, Mitchelton, Upper Kedron - Ferny Grove and Samford Valley. The reported-offence figures below are for the whole division, not Enoggera specifically.
Most-reported offences · Ferny Grove Division, last 12 months
- Other Theft (excl. Unlawful Entry)1,476 /100k−44% vs QLD↑ 11%
- Drug Offences735 /100k−56% vs QLD↓ 14%
- Assault436 /100k−59% vs QLD↑ 8%
- Unlawful Entry253 /100k−63% vs QLD↓ 28%
- Unlawful Use of Motor Vehicle124 /100k−63% vs QLD↓ 18%
- Robbery19 /100k−58% vs QLD↓ 22%
Rate per 100,000 people across the whole Ferny Grove Division — not Enoggera 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 Ferny Grove Division over the last 12 months, running 44% below the Queensland rate and up on the year before. None of this is specific to Enoggera — 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
- 20223.6%
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.
Council flood-likelihood modelling
3.8% of Enoggera is mapped as flood-liable, split by how often flooding is expected. This layer dates from 2013 and reads conservatively for some riverside suburbs.
- High <1%
- Medium <1%
- Low 1.6%
- Very Low <1%
Enoggera has been within a mapped flood extent before — in 2022, with up to about 3.6% of the suburb inundated in the worst of those events. Council's flood-likelihood modelling maps about 3.8% of Enoggera as flood-liable, roughly 1.3% of it in a high or medium likelihood band.
