Source: NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research (BOCSAR), recorded criminal incidents by suburb, July 2025 to June 2026. Area: Bankstown 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. Totals quoted here leave out transport regulatory offences and offences against justice procedures (such as breach of bail), which mostly reflect enforcement at stations and courts.
Housing stock: Apartment blocks around the town centre, post-war brick and fibro cottages, and duplexes and villas on subdivided blocks

Bankstown security tip
Clear out the car every night
Bankstown recorded 187 thefts from motor vehicles last year, as many as thefts from shops. Cars left on the street or in an open driveway overnight are the easiest to get at. Use the garage if you have one if you have one, leave nothing visible inside, lock the car every time, and a driveway camera with night vision helps if something does happen.
Bankstown homes and what they mean for security
Bankstown's streets have changed from post-war brick and fibro cottages to a mix of apartment blocks near the station and town centre, duplexes and villas on subdivided blocks, and the original houses further out. It is one of Sydney's most diverse centres, with busy food and retail strips that trade into the evening. Many older homes park cars on the street or in an uncovered driveway, and apartment buildings share basement car parks and entry doors.
