Safety context
Queensland Police Service · July 2026How much crime is reported where Greenslopes sits — measured for its whole police division, because that is the finest area the Queensland Police Service publishes.
Greenslopes is policed by the Queensland Police Service Coorparoo Division, which also covers Coorparoo. The reported-offence figures below are for the whole division, not Greenslopes specifically.
Most-reported offences · Coorparoo Division, last 12 months
- Other Theft (excl. Unlawful Entry)2,596 /100k−1% vs QLD↓ 8%
- Drug Offences932 /100k−44% vs QLD↓ 11%
- Unlawful Entry880 /100k+30% vs QLD↓ 28%
- Assault498 /100k−53% vs QLD↓ 2%
- Unlawful Use of Motor Vehicle299 /100k−11% vs QLD↓ 18%
- Robbery64 /100k+42% vs QLD↑ 66%
Rate per 100,000 people across the whole Coorparoo Division — not Greenslopes 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 Coorparoo Division over the last 12 months, running 1% below the Queensland rate and down on the year before. None of this is specific to Greenslopes — 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.

- 20114.7%
- 19742.0%
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
13% of Greenslopes 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 1.6%
- Medium 1.8%
- Low 3.8%
- Very Low 6.1%
Greenslopes has been within a mapped flood extent before — in 2022, 2011 and 1974, with up to about 10% of the suburb inundated in the worst of those events. Council's flood-likelihood modelling maps about 13% of Greenslopes as flood-liable, roughly 3.4% of it in a high or medium likelihood band.

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 Greenslopes SA2, OpenStreetMap records 6 childcare and kindergarten centres, 1 hospital, 11 GP or clinic locations, 3 supermarkets and 7 green spaces. For families: 1 library and 5 playgrounds. Eating out and socialising: 15 cafés and 15 restaurants. Staying active: 6 gyms, 3 public pools and 14 sports fields. Also 2 shopping centres. The nearest train station, Buranda, is about 1,350 m from the suburb centre. OpenStreetMap also maps 53 bus stops here.
