Silverbark Ridge is a rural locality in the City of Logan, Queensland, Australia.[2] It is situated along the development corridor south of Brisbane in the Greater Flagstone development area and is one of four new suburbs in Logan to house a predicted population boom between Brisbane and the Gold Coast.[3]

Geography[edit]

Flagstone Creek forms the localities northern boundary.[4]

History[edit]

Silverbark Ridge is situated in the Bundjalung traditional Indigenous Australian country.[5] [6] The origin of the suburb name is from the name of the flora found in the district.[2][4] It was approved and designated as a locality within Logan City by the Department of Natural Resources and Mines on 20 May 2016.[4] The redistribution of the state’s electoral boundaries in 2017 led to the suburb being part of the Jordan electoral district.[7]
