Modelled estimate, not police figures: Eudunda (815 residents at the 2021 Census) is estimated to account for about 29 of the offences recorded each year in the Goyder council area (likely 14 to 48), roughly 3,600 per 100,000 residents, including about 8 violent offences (likely 4 to 14). Ranges are 80% intervals; confidence 55 of 100. The estimate shares the council's published total (2025-26, three-year average) between its suburbs using a model trained on South Australia's suburb-level police data and ABS measures of each suburb's population and socio-economic profile.
The score blends national percentile ranks for each published offence category with fixed severity weights; here it is driven most by homicide (89th percentile), assault (47th percentile), break-ins (45th percentile). Five years earlier the same basis gave 27.
In 2025-26: violent 990 per 100,000 (+105% vs five years earlier); property 1,908 per 100,000 (-19% vs five years earlier); break-ins 555 per 100,000 (+4% vs five years earlier); theft 411 per 100,000 (-56% vs five years earlier).

Questions
Is Eudunda safe?
South Australia publishes crime figures by council area, not by suburb. Eudunda is in the Goyder council area, which recorded 990 violent offences per 100,000 residents in 2025-26, about 24% lower than the South Australia rate (1,300) and about 23% lower than the national rate (1,280). A modelled estimate for Eudunda itself is roughly 3,600 offences of all kinds per 100,000 residents a year (an estimate, not police figures). These are offences recorded by police per resident: they describe the area as a whole, not the risk on any particular street, and places with a busy centre record more because offences are counted where they happen.
