Perth Crime Rates by Suburb — Now on an Interactive Map

The Crime page now features an interactive heatmap showing per-capita crime rates for every Perth suburb, sourced from official WA Police data.

Each suburb is shaded from green (lowest crime) to red (highest crime rate per capita), giving you an instant visual overview of safety across the metro area.
