Regional New South Wales · 2023-24 to 2025-26

Safest suburbs and towns in regional New South Wales, and where crime is highest

Burradoo had the lowest recorded crime rate of the 250 regional NSW suburbs and towns with at least 2,000 residents over 2023-24 to 2025-26: about 1,460 offences a year per 100,000 residents, against a median of 7,320. Tura Beach and Bundanoon were next. The highest rates were in Albury (54,200), Lismore and Wagga Wagga.

Read rates with care. Police count an offence where it happens, and these rates divide by the people who live there. Suburbs with a city centre, a large shopping centre or nightlife draw many visitors, so their rates run high even if few residents are affected. Suburbs under 2,000 residents are not ranked: a handful of incidents would swing their rate. Every suburb page still shows its figures.

Questions

What is the safest suburb in regional New South Wales?

By recorded crime per resident, Burradoo (Wingecarribee): about 1,460 offences a year per 100,000 residents over 2023-24 to 2025-26, against a median of 7,320 for regional NSW suburbs and towns. The next lowest were Tura Beach, Bundanoon, Kiama Downs, Googong.

Which suburb in regional New South Wales has the highest crime rate?

Albury, at about 54,200 offences a year per 100,000 residents, then Lismore, Wagga Wagga, Moree. Places with a city or town centre, shopping or nightlife rank high: offences are counted where they happen, and many people there live elsewhere.

Which suburbs in regional New South Wales have the fewest break-ins?

St Georges Basin (52), Eglinton (66), Bilambil Heights (67) recorded the fewest break-ins per 100,000 residents a year over 2023-24 to 2025-26. The most were in Moree (3,210), South Tamworth (2,490), West Tamworth (2,380).

Why is my suburb not ranked?

Only suburbs with at least 2,000 residents at the 2021 Census and figures in each of the three years are ranked: 250 regional NSW suburbs and towns. Smaller suburbs still have a page with their figures; find them on the map or by postcode.

Where do these figures come from?

The NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research (BOCSAR) publishes criminal incidents recorded by NSW Police by suburb each month; they are added up here by financial year. Each rate here averages 2023-24 to 2025-26 (three years, so one unusual year does not decide a suburb's place) and divides by usual residents at the 2021 Census (ABS). Offence types follow the national categories: violent crime is homicide, assault, sexual offences and robbery.
