Safety context
Queensland Police Service · July 2026How much crime is reported where Victoria Point sits — measured for its whole police division, because that is the finest area the Queensland Police Service publishes.
Victoria Point is policed by the Queensland Police Service Cleveland Division, which also covers Wellington Point, Cleveland, Ormiston and Thornlands. The reported-offence figures below are for the whole division, not Victoria Point specifically.
Most-reported offences · Cleveland Division, last 12 months
- Other Theft (excl. Unlawful Entry)1,509 /100k−43% vs QLD↑ 5%
- Drug Offences1,295 /100k−22% vs QLD↑ 15%
- Assault546 /100k−48% vs QLD↓ 9%
- Unlawful Entry249 /100k−63% vs QLD↓ 27%
- Unlawful Use of Motor Vehicle135 /100k−60% vs QLD↓ 14%
- Robbery16 /100k−65% vs QLD↓ 61%
Rate per 100,000 people across the whole Cleveland Division — not Victoria Point 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 Cleveland Division over the last 12 months, running 43% below the Queensland rate and up on the year before. None of this is specific to Victoria Point — a police division usually spans several suburbs, so treat it as area context, not a street-level read.

Flood risk
Has this suburb flooded before, and how much of it is mapped as flood-liable?

Within the Victoria Point SA2, OpenStreetMap records 5 childcare and kindergarten centres, 3 GP or clinic locations, 5 supermarkets and 39 green spaces. For families: 1 library and 20 playgrounds. Eating out and socialising: 5 cafés and 11 restaurants. Staying active: 3 gyms, 2 public pools and 31 sports fields. Also 1 cinema and 2 shopping centres. The nearest train station, Cleveland, is about 7,300 m from the suburb centre. OpenStreetMap also maps 70 bus stops here.
