Data notes
- Recorded crime counts offences reported to or detected by police where they occurred. That includes offences against visitors and businesses, so busy centres score higher than their resident risk.
- States classify offences differently, so ranks compare areas within the same state.
- sexual offences excluded / geo-masked at suburb level (SAPOL privacy)
