This data set provides a count of family violence incidents
recorded by police, by LGA. Rates for 2006/07 were calculated using the
ERP figures as at 30 June 2006. The figures were extracted from the LEAP
database on 18 July 2007, and are subject to variation.
This data set provides raw numbers only. Due to the variation
in population size by LGA, it is best to use the rate of incidents per
1,000 ERP for comparing areas; the numbers can be used to show annual
changes over time.
