Crime Statistics

District proxyMedium confidence
Perth District average. WA Police publishes time-series crime data at district level — not suburb level — so these numbers reflect the broader Perth police district, not COTTESLOE specifically. Districts that include CBD, shopping or entertainment precincts (Perth, Mandurah) show inflated per-resident rates due to non-resident activity.
