  • The Great Property Crime Drop: a Regional Analysis
    NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research Bureau Brief Issue paper no. 88 July 2013 The Great Property Crime Drop: A regional analysis Don Weatherburn and Jessie Holmes Aim: To describe and discuss regional variation between parts of NSW in the rate at which theft and robbery offences have fallen. Method: Percentage changes in rates of offending in robbery and various categories of theft were calculated for the period 2000 to 2012. Changes in the extent to which rates of crime across areas have become more similar were quantified by comparing the standard deviation in crime rates across areas in 2000 to the standard deviation in crime rates in 2012. Product moment calculations were used to measure (a) the extent to which areas with high crime rates in 2000 also had high crime rates in 2012 and (b) the extent to which areas with the highest crime rates in 2000 had the largest falls in crime in 2012. Results: The fall in property crime and robbery across NSW between 2000 and 2012 has been very uneven; being much larger in Sydney and other urban areas than in rural areas. The fall in theft offence rates ranges from 62 per cent in the Sydney Statistical Division (SD) to 5.9 per cent in the Northern SD. Similarly, the fall in robbery rates ranges from 70.8 per cent in the Sydney SD to 21.9 per cent in the Northern SD. In some areas some offences actually increased. The Murray, Northern, Murrumbidgee, North Western, Hunter and Central West SDs, for example, all experienced an increase in steal from a retail store.

  • Connections Week Faqs
    Connections Week FAQs What is a Connections Week? Connections Week, previously called registry week, is a week to focus on the stories and needs of people sleeping on the streets and in crisis accommodation. Previously these weeks have been used to triage people sleeping rough or staying in crisis accommodation to ensure that the right type of housing and support is given to the right people. This year the End Street Sleeping Collaboration, in addition to helping the most vulnerable identified through the process also is seeking to establish a By Name List (BNL), to know each individual on the street - by name, and learn their personal stories. This is both to help individuals on an ongoing basis but also to use the understanding of the issues that are leading people to sleep on the streets at this moment, and provide the evidence that we need to make systems change to ‘turn off the taps’ and prevent homelessness. The BNL is not a ‘one off’ but an ongoing evidence based tool to assist individuals and change the system used in approximately 90 communities around the world. Connections Week will be a one off event to establish the BNL with the intention to keep the list live and constantly updated to be able to see each individual’s situation at any time, in real time, not to have an ongoing series of connections week. When will it take place? Connections Week will take place over four days: 5-9am Monday 18 November 5-9am Tuesday 19 November 6-11pm Wednesday 20 November 6-11pm Thursday 21 November What information is being gathered and how? During Connections Week trained volunteers will meet and gather information from people sleeping rough about their housing and healthcare needs.
