Logan Reserve

The birth of Logan Reserve came in 1862, when 500,000 acres of the Logan Agricultural Reserve were released for use by settlers. Cotton was the first crop grown, and in 1864 to 1865 a small bark church/school became the first public building to be erected. Early settlers hailed from Yorkshire and timber-getting and farming were the primary industries during the 1890s and remained important through to the early 20th century, when tobacco growing was taken on.

In the 2011 census, Logan Reserve recorded a population of 2,154 people, 49.9% female and 50.1% male. The median age of the Logan Reserve population was 30 years, 7 years below the national median of 37. 71.6% of people living in Logan Reserve were born in Australia. The other top responses for country of birth were New Zealand 6.6%, England 4.6%, Cambodia 1.8%, Samoa 1.3%, Fiji 1.1%. 81.3% of people spoke only English at home; the next most common languages were 3% Khmer, 2.5% Samoan, 1.9% Hmong, 1.3% Vietnamese, 0.6% Hindi.
