This dataset presents the footprint of the number of criminal incidents by principal offence recorded on the Victoria Police Law Enforcement Assistance Program (LEAP). A recorded criminal incident is a criminal event that may include multiple offences, alleged offenders and/or victims that is recorded on the LEAP database on a single date and at one location. The data spans the years ending March in the period of 2010 to 2019 and is aggregated to 2011 Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS) Local Government Areas (LGA). The CSA recorded crime collection includes all offences that are reported to, and detected by, Victoria Police and recorded on the LEAP database. The scope and coverage of the data, however, is not representative of all crime that occurs in Victoria. Some crimes may not be recorded on LEAP, not be reported to police, or the responsibility for responding to certain offences may lie with another agency. Recorded criminal incident data are compiled on the basis of the date that the incident was created on the LEAP database, rather than the date the incident was detected by, or reported to police. The creation date may not be the date when the incident occurred, or the date when the incident came to the attention of police. For further information about this dataset and related statistics, visit the data source:Crime Statistics Australia. Please note: AURIN has spatially enabled the original data. Recorded crime statistics are based on data extracted by Victoria police on the 18th day after the reference period, and are subject to movement between releases.

These summary statistics show Crimes, Offences, miss conduct, damages etc for 2011-2015 for the Greater Geelong Region.

This information was extracted from http://www.crimestatistics.vic.gov.au/ for our LGA.

Suburb-based crime statistics for crimes against the person and crimes against property. The Crime statistics datasets contain all offences against the person and property that were reported to police in that respective financial year. The Family and Domestic Abuse-related offences datasets are a subset of this, in that a separate file is presented for these offences that were flagged as being of a family and domestic abuse nature for that financial year. Consequently the two files for the same financial year must not be added together.

This dataset presents the footprint of the number of offences recorded on the Victoria Police Law Enforcement Assistance Program (LEAP). Recorded offences include any criminal act or omission by a person or organisation for which a penalty could be imposed by the Victorian legal system. The data spans the years ending September in the period of 2008 to 2017 and is aggregated to 2011 Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS) Local Government Areas (LGA). The CSA recorded crime collection includes all offences that are reported to, and detected by, Victoria Police and recorded on the LEAP database. The scope and coverage of the data, however, is not representative of all crime that occurs in Victoria. Some crimes may not be recorded on LEAP, not be reported to police, or the responsibility for responding to certain offences may lie with another agency. Recorded offence data are compiled on the basis of the date that the offence was created on the LEAP database, rather than the date the offence was detected by, or reported to police. The creation date may not be the date when the offence occurred, or the date when the offence came to the attention of police. For further information about this dataset and related statistics, visit the data source:Crime Statistics Australia. Please note: AURIN has spatially enabled the original data. Recorded crime statistics are based on data extracted by Victoria police on the 18th day after the reference period, and are subject to movement between releases.

This dataset presents the footprint of the rates of family incidents retrieved from Victoria Police. The data spans the financial years in the period of July 2013 to June 2018 and is aggregated to 2011 Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS) Local Government Areas (LGA). The Victorian Family Violence Database is a repository for a range of different datasets relating to family violence clients and service use, extracted from the data holdings of a variety of government agencies. The rate of family incidents per 100,000 population is calculated using the count of family incidents recorded in a LGA and the Estimated Resident Population (ERP) of that LGA. The rate is calculated using the following formula: Family Incident Rate = (Number of Family Incidents/ERP count) x 100,000. ERPs are based on populations provided by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS). For further information about this dataset and related statistics, visit the data source:Crime Statistics Australia. Please note: AURIN has spatially enabled the original data. The data contains information collected by Victoria Police on the L17 Risk Assessment and Risk Management Report.

This dataset contains counts of offences recorded by the NT Police, categorised by offence type, time period (month), location and (for assault offences) alcohol and domestic violence involvement. Certain types of offences show strong seasonal impacts and numbers show considerable monthly variation, particularly at the regional level. In April 2025, a new version of the Australian-New Zealand Standard Offence Classification (ANZSOC) was implemented in the Northern Territory, which is the standard to be used by all Australian and New Zealand jurisdictions. Key offence categories in the crime statistics, such as homicide, assault, sexual offences, robbery, burglary, theft, and property damage, are included in the new classification. No recorded offences have been deleted or created as a result of this process, but they may be reclassified, meaning they are reported in a different category. Thus, care must be taken when comparing the crime statistics in this time series with previously published time series. Since implementation of the SerPro data system in November 2023, it has been identified that entry of the data used for crime statistics generally happens later in the investigation process when compared to the previous PROMIS system. This means that monthly data takes longer to settle and may take several months to reflect the actual numbers of offences recorded by police. For this reason, the monthly crime statistics should be reviewed with caution and will be marked as provisional until data collection is substantially complete. There has been a break in the crime statistics time series following November 2023, due to the implementation of SerPro. This means that the statistics from December 2023 onwards should not be compared directly to earlier statistics.

Quarterly recorded crime reports and datasets

The quarterly recorded crime reports are available from 2004 and annually from 1997. They contains statistics and graphs relating to the 62 offences BOCSAR reports on, with trends rates and ratios for LGAs and Statistical Areas.

The datasets are produced quarterly for all of NSW and broken down by LGA, postcode and suburb for the 62 offences. The data includes incident counts by month from 1995

To avoid double counting individuals, demographic information of applicants/AFMs and respondents are of those on original applications. To maintain confidentiality, person-based counts with a value of 3 or less are given a value of 2 to calculate totals. Due to improvements made in data processing since the database release ending 30 June 2017, slight movement has occurred in numbers of AFMs and the number of applications outcomes.

Each quarter, ACT Policing issues crime statistics illustrating the offences reported or becoming known in suburbs across Canberra.

The selected offences highlighted in the statistics include: assault, sexual offences, robbery, burglary, motor vehicle theft, other theft (such as shoplifting and fraud) and property damage. It is important to note that these numbers may fluctuate as new complainants come forward, more Traffic Infringement Notices are downloaded into the system, or when complaints are withdrawn.

It should also be noted that the individual geographical areas will not combine to the ACT totals due to the exclusion of rural sectors and other regions.

It is important for the community to understand there may be a straight-forward explanation for a spike in offences in their neighbourhood.

For example, sexual offences in Narrabundah increased from two in the January to March last year, to 32 in the first quarter of 2012. These 32 sexual offences relate to one historical case which was reported to police in January 2012, and which has since been finalised.

The smaller the number of reported offences involved, the greater the chance for a dramatic percentage increase.
