We will soon be moving from Kalorama to Monbulk. I was talking to a woman in the bus. She was horrified and advised that we get good locks and maybe even an alarm system as Monbulk is very much more at risk than Kalorama.<\/p>\n
Doing some research on the internet I found a RACV site<\/a> which has some information on the topic. It was much better than the Victoria Police site<\/a> that only uses such large areas that the crime rates in Monbulk and Kalorama are the same owing to them being on the same district.<\/p>\n According to the RACV the crime rate is Kalorama is 1 in 241 and in Monbulk it is 1 in 144. The woman was right, Monbulk is 67% more at risk. But still, Monbulk is twice as good as the state average of 1 in 71. If my conversion rate is right, according to the Victoria Police the crime against property rate (which is more all encompassing) is 1 in 26 for the region ED2 (Knox).<\/p>\n Sadly the RACV page lacks in units. I guess it is an annual figure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We will soon be moving from Kalorama to Monbulk. I was talking to a woman in the bus.
