Source: NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research (BOCSAR), recorded criminal incidents by suburb, July 2025 to June 2026. Area: Merrylands 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 near the station and Stockland, post-war brick and fibro houses, and duplexes and townhouses on subdivided blocks

Merrylands security tip
Don't leave parcels on the step
Theft from homes without a break-in, such as parcels taken from the front step or things taken through an open door or garage, was common in Merrylands last year, with 113 offences. Use a parcel locker or have deliveries sent to a pick-up point, keep the garage and front door locked even when you're home, and a doorbell camera can record anyone who comes to the door.
Merrylands homes and what they mean for security
Merrylands has been rebuilt around its town centre, where apartment blocks now surround Stockland Merrylands and the station, while the streets further out still have post-war brick and fibro houses, many replaced by duplexes and townhouses. Apartments share lobbies, parcel rooms and basement car parks, and houses often have a front porch where deliveries are left. The shopping strips along Merrylands Road trade into the evening.
