At a glance
Deagon the smallest suburb in this corridor by land area ? just 1.6 square kilometres ? and it's got the feel of a forgotten village that somehow survived the march of Brisbane's northern sprawl. Thirteen kilometres north of the CBD with the Sandgate Road corridor running through it, it's wedged between the Gateway Arterial and the Boondall Wetlands. The Deagon Deviation takes the traffic pressure off, leaving the residential streets quiet and the local shops serving a community that values its obscurity.
