What Can we see from these statistics
By observing these statistics from BOSCAR you can see that in the past year Bankstown’s, Canterbury’s and the Sydney City’s robbery rate has decreased but Blacktown’s and Parramatta’s (Western Sydney) robbery rate has increased. Even through Parramatta and Blacktown is near Bankstown and Canterbury there’s a noticeable difference between the robbery incidents. By looking at the statistics you can tell that Sydney City is one of the most dangerous areas for robbery and Bankstown compared to these other regions is quite safe.
