Over time — combined recorded rate

How to read this: these are recorded break-in, motor-vehicle and violent offences only — a subset of recorded crime, not a total. Recorded rates aren't a measure of danger, and an absence of reports doesn't mean an area is "safe". Comparisons are only with other areas in NSW at the same level. Figures are official (NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research, LGA recorded crime workbook series, Apr 2025-Mar 2026).
Your street in Shoalhaven — not the whole council area
These numbers describe Shoalhaven as a whole, but nobody actually watches an entire council area — you watch your own place. Add your street, a parent's home, or the kids' school as a watched place, and Pryer gives you a timely, factual heads-up when something's reported nearby — not the whole council area's worth of noise. It gets more useful as more neighbours in Shoalhaven join in. Peace of mind, not paranoia.
