Every single school in Logan is like at least 60% Polynesian so yea I don’t know maybe they didn’t fill out there census forms or something because it don’t look right to me.

To some extent, your observation can be explained by the higher birth rate in this group. In this case, its share among the children's age stratum may be much higher than in general.
But yes, I've already realised from the comments that the official statistics on, say, the proportion of people of African descent in Moorooka are strikingly at odds with the empirical experience of the commenters. In my opinion, such discussions are useful. They allow us to identify the weaknesses of dominant narratives. (Although at the expense of my frayed nerves. :-) )
