Source: South Australia Police crime statistics on data.sa.gov.au (offences against the person and property), 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2026. Area: Oaklands Park as defined by the source. Figures are counts of offences recorded by police for the whole suburb, not rates per resident. Busy centres draw workers, shoppers and visitors, so their counts are higher. Recorded crime also depends on what is reported and how it is policed, and past figures do not predict future risk.

Oaklands Park security tip
Living next to a big shopping centre
Streets near a large shopping centre carry more foot and car traffic than most: people cutting through, parking on the street and walking past houses at night. A front camera that covers the footpath and driveway, sensor lighting and a locked side gate stop the opportunistic theft that comes with a busy shopping precinct next door.
Oaklands Park homes and what they mean for security
Around the shopping centre, Oaklands Park is mostly post-war brick homes, with many blocks redeveloped into units and townhouses and some apartments near the railway station. The streets closest to the centre carry more foot and car traffic than a typical suburb, especially on weekends and late-night trading nights. Retailers inside the centre rely on its security, while nearby businesses and homes arrange their own alarms and cameras.
