Loganholme - Tanah Merah is well served for the everyday — 1 school and 4 supermarkets; a young, family-heavy area (median age 35 at the 2021 Census, against 38 for Queensland). The trade-offs: there's no one-seat public transport ride to the CBD — you'd change at Beenleigh station; council flood mapping isn't published for Logan City, so flood status here isn't verified from open data — check Logan City Council directly.

Mostly free-standing houses, with a median age of 35 and households on a median $1,868 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, OpenStreetMap, TransLink timetables and Queensland Open Data.

Safety context

Queensland Police Service · July 2026

How much crime is reported where Loganholme - Tanah Merah sits — measured for its whole police division, because that is the finest area the Queensland Police Service publishes.

Loganholme - Tanah Merah is policed by the Queensland Police Service Loganholme Division, which also covers Cornubia - Carbrook and Shailer Park. The reported-offence figures below are for the whole division, not Loganholme - Tanah Merah specifically.

Of these categories, other theft is reported most across the whole Loganholme Division over the last 12 months, running 30% above the Queensland rate and up on the year before. None of this is specific to Loganholme - Tanah Merah — a police division usually spans several suburbs, so treat it as area context, not a street-level read.
