About these numbers
Counts cover incidents reported within the Melbourne map region by the sources listed on the Melbourne incident page — media-sourced reports are approximate block-level locations and unverified community reports are excluded. This is a descriptive summary of reported activity, not an official Melbourne crime statistic or a safety score. Methodology & full source list
