We moved into Loganlea 5 years ago. I must admit I was pessimistic at the time, my expectations were that we would be confronted by the typical Logan stereotypes of two-headed home mechanics serenading us with their barking pit bulls. As it turned out, this was simply not the case. Instead we were welcomed by our neighbours with open arms, and found that the area is blessed by some beautiful parks. Each morning we have Kookaburras and Rainbow Lorikeets in our trees, something which I never experienced when I was in the city.

Loganlea is undergoing a period of gentrification, and the area is just starting to get some local eating places other that Macdonalds. The closest places to eat are Waterford, Loganholme, or Browns Plains. There are a large number of rentals in Loganlea which does impact on how people care for their properties. To be honest I think they should chop the suburb in half and from Pinelands Road northwards. The southern half is quite nice. Loganlea is central to the M1 (Brisbane/Gold Coast) and the Ipswich Motorway, and has plenty of public transport including an express train to the city. Overall, not a bad place to live - it just depends on your needs.
