Queensland was annexed in 1961 and mostly developed between 1973 and 1975, with a small section added in the early 1980s. About 63% of homes are single-detached (2021 Census); the rest are row houses, semi-detached homes and a few low-rise apartments. The escarpment overlooking the Bow River is public open space.

Safety & crime data
Rather than give an opinion, I'd point you to the official numbers. Calgary Police Service publishes crime and disorder statistics by community, so you can see Queensland's figures and compare them with other areas yourself.
