Logan Village · Urban Centre
How much of daily life sits within a walk of home — a transparent 0–10 walkability score and the everyday destinations you can reach on foot: shops, public transport, schools, parks and health services, plus the streets and terrain in between.
Just over half of homes in Logan Village pass the 15-minute-city test, with 57.5% of residents able to reach five or more amenity types on foot. This makes the area somewhat walkable, though it sits a little below the Queensland average for overall walkability.

The overall walkability score and how much of daily life is a short walk away.
The walkability score is 4.1, which is considered somewhat walkable. This is a little below the Queensland figure of 5.0, and the number of homes within a 15-minute walk of key services is also a little below the state average.
4.1
Somewhat walkable of urban centre areas.
A 0–10 score for how much of daily life sits within an easy walk of the average home — weighing how close groceries, public transport, cafés, parks, health services, schools, culture and everyday services are, and how many of each. Walking times are measured on an elevation-aware pedestrian network, so hills count against reach. The methodology page describes how the score is put together.
4.8
