Source: Crime Statistics Agency Victoria, recorded offences by suburb (postcode 3000 for the CBD), Year to 30 June 2026. Area: Dandenong 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.

Dandenong security tip
Have alarms at the factory reach a real person after hours
Warehouses and factories in and around Dandenong sit empty overnight and on weekends, often on large lots with little street traffic. An alarm that only sounds a siren relies on someone nearby hearing it. Back-to-base monitoring with patrol response, cameras covering the yard and loading doors, and good perimeter lighting mean someone is told while it is happening.
Dandenong homes and what they mean for security
Residential Dandenong is mostly post-war brick veneer and weatherboard houses on quarter-acre-style blocks, many now subdivided for units and townhouses, with apartment development growing around the station and the central shopping area. Businesses range from market stalls and retail strips to large industrial sites. Homes often have driveways and carports at the side, while commercial sites have wide yards, roller doors and fences that need to be watched after hours.
