Crime & safety

Victoria's crime figures come from the Crime Statistics Agency (CSA), which publishes offences recorded by Victoria Police. The table covers 11 common offence types in Moonee Valley for the year ending June 2026 (July 2025 to June 2026). Each rate, per 100,000 people, sits next to the Victorian rate. 'vs Victoria' is Moonee Valley's rate divided by the Victorian rate: below 1.0 means lower than Victoria, above 1.0 means higher.

These are offences recorded by police, not convictions. We compare Moonee Valley with Victoria only: Victoria and NSW count crime differently, so their figures can't be compared. The CSA calculates rates with the Victorian Government's population estimates ('Victoria in Future'), not the ABS figure on the profile page. How CSA offence codes map to the rows above: family violence assault = A211 + A231; non-family-violence assault = A212 + A232; sexual offences = A30; robbery = A51 + A52; residential burglary = B311 + B321; non-residential burglary = B312 + B322; motor vehicle theft = B41; steal from a motor vehicle = B42; steal from a retail store = B43; other theft = B44 + B49; property damage = B21 + B22 + B29.
