Crime by mesh block — estimated rates and rank in suburb within 1 km (by gnaf_id) (beta)

GET/v1/properties/{gnaf_id}/mesh-blocks/crime20¢ per call

Beta. The figures behind this topic have not been validated against an independent source, so it is not sold at the same confidence as the other mesh-block topics. Every response says beta: true and carries a beta_notice.

Is this place safe? Estimated crime rates for every mesh block around the property — all crime and eight types, per 100,000 residents a year — with where each block sits among the blocks in its suburb and nationally. From our mesh-block crime model, calibrated in November 2026 so each area's blocks add up to what police recorded there.

One entry per mesh block within 1,000 m of the property under mesh_blocks, nearest first, each with its mb_code, distance_m, population and dwellings. Blocks across suburb lines are included. Values only — the polygons come from /properties/{gnaf_id}/context/mesh-blocks.

Every field carries provenance — measured (at this block), measured_wider_area (measured for the SA1 or postcode and repeated on every block in it), estimate (our model) or not_recorded (not labelled yet) — plus how, one sentence on how the number was arrived at (empty when not_recorded).

About this data

What this is

Our estimate of crime around one address, block by block: the total rate and eight offence types per 100,000 residents a year for each mesh block within 1 km, with each block's rank in its suburb and nationally.

What people use it for

  • Buyers and renters: see whether the streets right around a home sit at the quiet or busy end of the suburb.
  • Buyers' agents: answer "is this street safe" with more than a suburb average.
  • AI assistants: a grounded answer to "is this area safe" for a specific address.

Coverage

Mesh blocks nationwide (about 368,000). The 1 km radius crosses suburb lines. A field is null where we hold nothing for that block.

Tips

These are modelled figures, not police counts: each area's blocks are scaled to add up to what state police statistics recorded there, and the spread across blocks is our model. Rates are per resident, so shopping and nightlife blocks read low; blocks under 50 residents have none. For recorded totals use /v1/suburbs/{suburb_name}/crime/summary. Check provenance before quoting a field. Whole suburb: /v1/suburbs/{suburb_name}/mesh-blocks/crime. Polygons: /v1/properties/{gnaf_id}/context/mesh-blocks, joined on mb_code.
