2022 crime data, new ranking, Crime API

Good news everyone! Red Suburbs now updated with 2022 crime data statistics for all of Australia. Crime trends are now expanded to 5 years, 2018 to 2022. This provides much better overview of where crime is heading for each particular suburb.

For first 4-5 months Red Suburbs experimented with new ranking algorithm based on median crime values. While resulting numbers were mathematically fitting, they were much harder to understand. As result we reverted to our old system and improved on it further with better low and high cap values. Resulting Ranks are much more intuitive and allow to understand suburb/lga standing in a single glance.

And last but not least. You can now access Australia Crime API via Rapid API platform. We provide up to 100 free request monthly, hopefully this can help developers launch their own solutions.

Cheers!
