Source: NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research (BOCSAR), recorded criminal incidents by suburb, July 2025 to June 2026. Area: Port Macquarie as defined by the source. Figures are for the town as BOCSAR defines it (the suburb of the same name). They are counts of offences recorded by police, not rates per resident. Regional centres draw people from surrounding districts for shopping, services, work and nightlife, so their counts are higher than their population alone would suggest. Recorded crime also depends on what is reported and how it is policed, and past figures do not predict future risk. Totals quoted here leave out transport regulatory offences and offences against justice procedures (such as breach of bail).
Housing stock: Brick and fibro homes from the 1960s to the 1980s, newer estates to the south and west, units and holiday apartments near the river and beaches, and retirement villages

Port Macquarie security tip
Keep doors locked even when you're home
Port Macquarie recorded 138 thefts from homes last year, separate from its 170 break-ins, and BOCSAR counts these separately because nobody had to break in, for example through an unlocked door or from a porch, carport or open garage. Keep doors locked even when you're home, close the garage, bring parcels in quickly, and consider a video doorbell so you can see who is at the door before you open it.
Port Macquarie homes and what they mean for security
Port Macquarie's older streets have single-storey brick and fibro homes from the 1960s to the 1980s, while newer estates have spread south and west of the town. Units, holiday apartments and retirement villages near the river and beaches share entries, lifts and car parks. Many residents are retirees, and homes that sit empty during long trips or holiday seasons need timers, alarms and a neighbour who checks in.
