3309 · Glenelg · 122 residents
Digby is a town in the Western District of Victoria, Australia. The town is in the Shire of Glenelg, 366 kilometres (227 mi) west of the state capital, Melbourne, on the Stokes River, a tributary of the Glenelg. Digby is a small locality — too few residents for its own AusScore, so it takes the overall grade of Glenelg council. It still has minimal public transport and 4 school zones.
Recorded offences per 1,000 residents, graded against the Victorian median. Lower is safer.
Grades use a 3-year averagerate, so one unusually quiet or busy year can't swing the result. With only 122 residents here, a handful of incidents still moves the rate a lot — read these with that in mind.
Offences per 1,000 residents over the last decade, against the Victorian median. A line below the dashed median means this suburb is safer than the typical Victorian suburb.
Over the past decade, property & deception offences — the bulk of recorded crime — eased from 57 to 8 per 1,000 residents in Digby (down from a 57 peak in 2016). That keeps it 71% below the typical Victorian suburb — a reassuring sign for anyone living here. The picture is mixed across the three measures.
Recorded offences in the latest year.
Alleged offenders aged 10–17 per 1,000 residents, against the Victorian average. The Crime Statistics Agency reports this by council, not by suburb, so it covers all of Glenelg and is not part of this suburb's AusScore— it's shown here as council context. The grade compares Glenelg with the median Victorian council.
Youth offending in Glenelg council has fallen from 4.9 to 2.9 alleged offenders aged 10–17 per 1,000 residents over the decade, having bottomed out at 1.3 in 2018. Since that low it has climbed about 115% — a worrying reversal that mirrors the statewide trend.
