Safety context

Queensland Police Service · July 2026

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

Loganlea is policed by the Queensland Police Service Logan Central Division, which also covers Woodridge, Kingston (Qld), Logan Central and Underwood. The reported-offence figures below are for the whole division, not Loganlea specifically.

Most-reported offences · Logan Central Division, last 12 months

Rate per 100,000 people across the whole Logan Central Division — not Loganlea 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 Logan Central Division over the last 12 months, running 149% above the Queensland rate and up on the year before. None of this is specific to Loganlea — a police division usually spans several suburbs, so treat it as area context, not a street-level read.
