Profile
The
administrative and commercial centre for the area, Logan
Central has entry level prices for first home buyers, while
also attracting investors due to its central location,
supply of tenants, and stock of ex-Housing Commission
properties ripe for renovation.
Logan Central offers a shopping centre and high school,
while nearby Meadowbrook has the Logan Hospital as well as
the campuses of Logan TAFE and Griffith University.
Logan Central itself has schools and parkland facilities, is
close railway stations, which provides access to the
Brisbane CBD and to the Gold Coast. Logan Central also
offers good access to the Logan and Pacific Motorways.
Housing stock consists primarily of low-set older style
homes, but new low-priced homes in the area are likely to
contribute to prices increases.
Logan Central has a mixture of young families who rent and
older people who are owner-occupiers. Many people commute to
Brisbane to work, however, as the Logan Government offices
are located in the area, many residents find employment in
their own backyard. The large retail/commercial areas close
by are also a good source of employment.
The Logan Entertainment Centre hosts cultural activities
throughout the year while the Logan Gardens at the Civic
Central Park is also a popular spot. Every Sunday morning,
the Logan Central Market comes alive with products such as
clothing, electrical goods, and fresh produce on offer.
